    Hello. We are in Ferrals les Montagnes, 34210. We can accommodate 2 people, or more if you are in a camper van. This will be an opportunity for us to exchange and help each other in the maintenance of the vegetable garden, the garden. We have been beekeeping for 3 years, if you are interested, we can exchange our knowledge in this field. Another possibility, a little painting and wood help depending on your skills.

    Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

    In our village, there is a rural center that organizes various activities. Our house is equipped with Wi-Fi. We can of course offer various skills, whether in gardening, vegetable growing, or orchard maintenance, as we belong to the Jardiniers du Parc du Haut Languedoc, an association of passionate gardeners. We can also share beekeeping skills if you wish. We will share our knowledge in the fields of painting. We speak English, and, for my wife, Italian. Intermediate levels in both English and Italian. In the village, we have English friends who can help us if necessary. Of course, knowledge of the different cultures of our hosts is one of our concerns; moreover, we have one of our sons who himself lives in New Zealand.

    Dans notre village, il y a un foyer rurale qui organise diverses activités.
    Notre maison est équipée de WIFI.
    Nous pourrons bien sûr proposer diverses compétences que ce soit en jardinage, cultures potagères et entretiens du vergers car nous appartenons aux Jardiniers du Parc du Haut Languedoc qui est une associations de jardiniers passionnés.
    Nous pourrons aussi partager des compétences en apiculturs selon votre envie.
    Nous partagerons nos connaissances dans les domaines de la peinture.
    Nous parlons anglais, et, pour ma femme, italien. Niveaux moyens que ce soit en anglais ou italien. Dans le vilage nous avons des amis anglais qui pourrons le cas échéant nous venir en aide si besoin.
    Bien évidemment, la connaisance des cultures différentes de nos hôtes fait partie de nos préoccupations, par ailleurs, nous avons un de nos fils qui lui-même vit en Nouvelles Zélandes.
