Cultural exchange and learning opportunities
We are native English speakers, Irish and American with long term residency in France. We speak multiple languages and have lived in many parts of the world. We are happy to help you explore the South of France, improve your French or English. We enjoy cooking and food, cultivate a small garden, and are easy going and social people.
Projects involving children
This project could involve children. For more information see our guidelines and tips here.
Help
Ideally looking for people who can help with gardening, painting, building, and some dog sitting. Native Spanish speakers are a huge plus but not required. We are happy to find projects that meet your skill set. Painting iron railings or indoor walls, digging some garden holes, building stone walls, walking the nice dogs, and chatting in Spanish. All help is genuinely appreciated and can be done when it suits you. If you have carpentry skills that would also be great but we can work with your skill set.

Accommodation
We have a 60 square meter apartment on the ground floor of our house that is completely independent with its own kitchen, 160 cm bed, WIFI. Fits 2 comfortably. It is well decorated and comfortable. The house also has a large pool, ample parking, and it is possible to walk to a bus that goes to Cannes or Grasse France. We prefer to provide a stipend for food or do a weekly shop as a kitchen is available and our eating hours are often earlier than many people might like.
What else ...
We are perfectly placed in the South of France near beautiful beaches and the town of Cannes. 100s of famous sites are in easy reach as well as language schools, cultural activities, and museums. The weather is ideal year round. We are lookig for short term stays as opposed to longer ones and we ask that people respect the house by keeping it tidy.
