    Description

    I’m moving into the family home. I’ve got some gardening to do, as well as some painting, cleaning and tidying up the garage.
    If anyone is available between now and the end of June, I’d be very happy to have some help.
    The hours required are 20 per week; you can organise your schedule as you wish, spread over 4 or 5 days.
    Port-Navalo is a beautiful place. The house is a 3-minute walk from the beach, where you can go for a swim. There are plenty of walks and cycle rides to enjoy in the surrounding area. There is a bus service between Vannes and Arzon. You will have your own room, as well as your own toilet and bathroom.
    I’d be delighted to introduce you to French cuisine. I can cook anything (vegan, lactose-free, gluten-free) but specialise in vegetarian dishes.
    Please don’t hesitate to contact me for more information.
    Chris

    Je m'installe dans la maison familiale. J'ai du jardinage à faire ainsi que de la peinture, du nettoyage et ranger le garage.
    Si quelqu'un est libre de maintenant jusqu'à fin juin, je serai très heureuse d'avoir de l'aide.
    Le temps demandé est de 20 h par semaine, vous pouvez vous organiser comme vous le souhaitez, sur 4 ou 5 jours.
    Port-Navalo est un lieu magnifique. La maison est à 3 minutes à pied de la plage où l'on peut se baigner. Il y a beaucoup de balades à pied ou à vélo à faire aux alentours. Il y a un réseau bus entre Vannes et Arzon. Vous aurez votre propre chambre ainsi que vos toilettes et salle de bain personnels.
    Je serai ravie de vous faire découvrir la cuisine française. Je peux cuisiner de tout (végan, sans lactose, sans gluten) mais plus spécifiquement végétarien.
    N'hésitez pas à me contacter pour plus d'informations.

    Guests will be able to practise their French if they wish. I’m an excellent cook and would love to spend time in the kitchen sharing this passion. They’ll be able to learn about permaculture gardening and painting.

    Les voyageurs pourront pratiquer le français s'ils le souhaitent. Je suis une excellente cuisinière et serai ravie de passer du temps en cuisine pour partager cette passion. Ils pourront apprendre à jardiner en permaculture, peindre.

    After travelling the world as a Workawayer, I’m settling into the family holiday home. Between now and the end of June, I’ll be doing some painting, cleaning the windows and shutters, tending to the garden, tidying the garage and possibly stripping the wallpaper so the bedrooms can be repainted.

    Après avoir fait le tour du monde en tant que workawayer, je m'installe dans la résidence secondaire familiale. De maintenant à fin juin, je vais avoir à faire de la peinture, nettoyer les fenêtres et les volets, s'occuper du jardin, ranger le garage et éventuellement enlever de la tapisserie pour repeindre les chambres.
