Apologies for writing this so late, it slipped my mind!
I spent a month in Cavalière with Harriet, mostly driving and doing some simple maintenance work.
The location is beautiful and Harriet is very kind and interesting to converse with, as are all her many friends in the area.

John is an adaptable and intelligent multi-tasker. Very pleasant, open minded and cooperative person. He interacts well with people and animals, my cat quite adores him. He was a very reliable driver and makes good Spanish omelettes!

Sophie and I spent 10 days in the beautiful Cavalière and loved every minute of our workaway experience. Although Harriet, Francesca and Ulysses were on holiday for the majority of the time, our time with them was fantastic! They are a lovely family and made us feel right at home with great conversation, food and wine. There is so much to do in… read more

The house is extremely cozy, my room was comfortable and the place quite quiet, just the noise of wind and birds.
We had long conversations about Brazil, France and the USA, and Harriet helped me with English in a caring and careful way.
I was greeted not only by Harriet, but by… read more

Janet was a very fine workaway, and a very pleasant person to be around. Part of the job was being a driver, and she's and excellent one. She was quite efficient with other tasks and I highly recommend her.

I stayed with Harriet for 3 weeks in February. Harriet is an engaging and welcoming host. I enjoyed having conversations with her. We frequently had meals together (we share our appreciation of organic food.) and she would invite me to join in different activities such as going to the local Sunday morning marché aux puces or visiting with friends.… read more

My two and half weeks in Cavaliére, in the wonderful landscape of Cóte A´zur were nice
and relaxed. As for the work itself it really doesn´t feel like work at all. Harriet has a basic
routine and tells without press what could be done: some garden works, cleaning the terrace
and the kitchen, driving her for shopping and meetings with friends,… read more
