    Description

    Hello, my son is gone to university and I found myself with little time to look after the house and garden. I am looking for people who like spending time gardening and do some house work. They can help me also look after my handicaped mum but this is not necessary or maybe you like doing some reparing or painting... I live in a small town in the center of France so you will need to like beeing in the countryside and spending time on your own to study or run or go riding maybe..I'd like someone to share some time with me to exchange about different culture, and maybe even teach me some other language. I can help you with the study of French or English. Come stay with me for a as little as you like.
