    Description

    Hello lovely people ! I am renovating with my boyfriend the old house where my great grand parents lived. I am trying to do as eco-friendly as possible, using traditional techniques when I can. I have been doing this for the past 5 years. It is really passionating.
    Did I mention that the place is a little paradise ? It is quite an unusual place : the house is in the middle of a natural site, with bamboo forest, eucalyptus forest and a little river, where you can swim under a little waterfall or under a huge ancient stone bridge. It's the perfect place to chill and enjoy the summer.
    We want to build this peacefull place mainly to welcome people. We love to make news friends, improve the place, hosting big parties and share precious moments.
    We also have pet sheep that are adorable :)

  • Help

    Help

    We take all the help we can get. Some tasks are very physical, like masonry work or clearing land. No work will be carried out at height. Others are gentler, such as finishing. It all depends on what we're doing while you're here. We'll discuss it beforehand, of course. We know how to do just about everything, so we can teach you how to do plumbing, masonry, plastering and so on. But keep in mind that we're not professionals, even though we've been doing this for 5 years :)
