  Description

  Hello! We’re a family of three (Bérénice, William, and our 6-year-old daughter Ada) living in the heart of France’s Auvergne region, near Clermont-Ferrand. After six wonderful years in Freiburg, Germany, we’ve returned to our roots and now enjoy a fulfilling life with our garden, chickens, and bees. We’d be delighted to welcome Workawayers into our home to share our culture, practice languages, and exchange experiences. There’s always plenty to do around here, from gardening and beekeeping to various projects around the house, and we’d love to have you join us!
