Description
Olivia and I live in Vollèges, close to world renown ski and bike resort, Verbier, in Switzerland. We have a great dog, Brownie, who is always up for some fun and gives the best cuddles. Caroline is a mountain guide et Olivia is an adventurous strong headed 14 year old who loves sports, in particular skiing, soccer, biking and climbing. She loves her school. Our man, Adam, built us a beautiful chalet with magnificent views, before being the victim of a helicopter accident in early April '24. The house feels empty without him and we would love to host a Workaway to help around the house, walk Brownie, ease logistics, cook sometimes. We are pretty low maintenance and love the company. We are bilingual, speaking both French and English at home. We are looking for someone independent, helpful, kind, self motivated, reliable and sporty. We provide the workaway with a car to run errands and drive Olivia on the weekends. Mostly, we need help walking the dog 1-2x a day. You will be very free to enjoy the surrounding activities and Verbier life.
We can't wait to meet you and host you,
Caroline and Olivia 🧚🏻
