Description
We are happy to start our adventure as a Host in the south of France in a nice village near the lakes of Saint Jean and the natural park of the Alberes. There are plenty of outdoors activities to do around here such as hiking, climbing, skiing, canoeing/kayaking, trekking and we are also close to the beautyful playas of Spain.
I am quiropractic and I live in a cosy house with garden and a beautiful orange tree, close to all services will allow volunteers to be independent and explore the surroundings by walking or biking.
We love playing chess so we often have meeting with friends and play match. We speak various languages including Italian Spanish French English, which helps to share knowledge and skills in various fields.
We need volunteers who are fit and motivated, can help with gardening, diy, and home cleaning.
The engagement would be for a period of 3 days maximum.
Your cooking and help at the house are outside the workday schedule.
I love to cook as well as organize a cookers team with simply and tasty recipies so it will be a pleasure to share my cuisine with you.

Our preference is that you are honest and straight up about where you can offer skills and what you might need training and supervision with. Looking for positive minded people, keen to help out.
As a base line we ask 4 hours per day, but we are negotiable if the feel of the arrangement is good for everyone.
