Description
Our family is composed of 2 little boys, Joseph (7) and Ernest (4), both going to school. We also have 2 cats and 15 chickens. We live in a rural village called Marolles-en-Brie and are from a farming background. Saying that we are also at about 1hour train from Paris and enjoy fun day trips. We wish to welcome a workaway, preferentially that speaks english and is from a farming background. We don't have a specific job needed but would enjoy sharing the routine tasks as a family in the evenings and week ends like cooking, gardening, caring for the house and kids and doing social activites.
We welcome very few workaways, and only young girls with "an au pair" profil, for short period of time (6 weeks max).
While the kids are at school (from 8am til 6 pm), you will have time on your own, perfect if you have personal projects to work on (writing, reading etc...).
My husband name is Pierre. He is Belgium, works in agriculture and is passionnate about sugarbeet and agriculture machinery.
I am Louise, I work in the field of environnemental science and agronomy. In the past I traveled a lot, enjoying Irish, Australien and Canadian cultures.
