  • Description

    Description

    I’m a designer who recently moved to France with my wife who is a nurse and our son who is about to turn 5.

    We are looking for a native French person or couple to join our family as we build a life in rural France. We are looking for someone who enjoys cultural exchange, conversation, meals, local outings, and helping us improve our French.

    Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

    You will stay with a creative family. My wife is a nurse (and great cook) and we have an adorable 5 year old who goes to the local village school. I’m an Industrial designer now working in jewelry. I love the arts, culture and the latest trends. You can learn from my 30 year experience in designing as I now apply this expertise to jewelry design and making.

    Join our family as we build a life in rural France. We are looking for a native French speaker who enjoys cultural exchange, conversation, meals, local outings, and helping us improve our French.

    This is not a business, and we don’t need business help. This is for personal, learning, and cultural exchange.

It has air conditioning and underfloor heating. There is a desk with an Apple 27" monitor and keyboard. You will have access to a beautiful modern swimming pool and an Italian espresso coffee machine. We are rural, but not far from shops and a local historical village called Lauzerte. Modern home with traditional charm!
