  Description

  Hi ! We are a friendly couple from Nantes. We both traveled around and sometimes quite far from here. We had also spent a year in the Northern countries with a lot of workaway adventures. After a long search, we finally found a perfect spot to build our house. Well, it's actually an old farm with 2 hectares of land ! So we would be glad to meet you and build our bioclimatic house !

  As usual here, you are host, so meals and a place to sleep are offer. Work days are done with usual hours but everything can be arrange. If you want time off, days off, it's not a problem as soon as we discuss and agree on it. Timetable will be transparent. It's not a disguised work place !
  About things to do around, by foot, there is a small wood, a river and plenty of hiking paths. Otherwise, I can bring you to the train station if you want to visit cities around or check on the ocean :)
