    Description

    Hello lovely people ! I am renovating 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 ? The house is in the middle of a natural site, with bamboo forest and a river, where you can swin everyday under a little waterfall or under a huge old stone bridge. We also have pet sheep and a lot of birds.

  • 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 :)
