Description
I live a quiet oasis on the road to St Jacques de Compostela, in montarnaud (close to Montpellier) I have a house and a guest room. I wish to dom some work: closing a wooden carport, and other jobs. I live with my 20 year old son (student faculty). The place is ideal to relax and I am an excellent cook (it seems). Montarnaud is just 13km of Montpellier.

J'habite un petit havre de paix sur le chemin de St Jacques de compostelle ,à montarnaud exactement ( tout proche de montpellier ) J'ai un gîte et une chambre d'hôtes . Je souhaite faire des travaux : fermer un abri voiture en bois , lazurer améliorer l'existant en somme . J'habite avec mon fils de 20 ans (étudiant en faculté ) . L'endroit est idéal pour se ressourcer et je suis une excellente cuisiniere ( il paraît ) . Montarnaud se situe à seulement 13km de montpellier .
