Description
Hello everyone. My name is Elada and I live in a small town called Pézenas in the south of France with my husband Gilles.
Being a big fan of gardening and plants we bought a house with a big garden. Now I find myself with lots of work in outdoors and thought I don't regret and absolutely I do not complain, sometimes I need a little help to make my green space even more green.
So we have a nice apartment in the first floor of the house. During summer days it is mostly rented but out of season its available for workawayers. Its totally independent with its own access and kitchen etc.
We have 2 most pretty and nicest dogs and 3 mischievous cats. We work lot usually and we are home at the evenings.
Why we host workayayers? of course for free help :-), but mostly for cultural exchange, for me its like travailing around the world without moving from my house. Making new friends around the world and discovering things that I wouldn't as a tourist.

We are 40 min from Montpellier, which is really a nice city and also 20min from Beziers. For the lovers of the sand and sun the beach is 30 min from my house and as I work near the Cap d'Agde its always possible to have a free ride. for the hiking lovers we have some nice places to recommend for our guests, that are worth the work.
For the transport ist only regional buses and sometimes we make available our bikes for our guests.
