Description
Hi !
We were enthusiastic workawayers during our world tour last year and we are becoming enthusiastic hosts now ! When I say "we", I mean Alexis and Diane, we are 30 yo and just realised our dream by settling down in the wonderful Brittany region, in France.
We bought an old peaceful farm, we have some land and we are 20 min away from the sea (by car). We are respectful of nature and grow our (new born) garden regarding its wellness, respecting as much as we can the animals and plants around.
Alex is working in the bank and finance field and Diane is a sextherapist and couple therapist (you can find us on instagram if you are curious- ask us for the link ). We also have a dog called Ukie and she is a true chou à la crème.
Even if we decided to choose a calm place to live, we are always moving around, very active (especially Alex), hosting friends, meeting new people, partying (even if we do it much less than few years ago 😅).
We decided to post this on workaway for several reasons :
- We need some help with this property and especially the garden that have the ambition to be expanded,
- We truly love to host and meet new persons
- We want to give back the experience of traveling and being hosted by locals
What you can do here :
- Gardening, planting, cutting, outdoor work
- Building, renovating, painting to make this place as wonderful as it can be
- Cleaning the house, cooking together (you will learn if you'd like)
- ... (probably the ideas will come as it goes, right ?)
What we offer :
- You will be comfortably hosted (couples are welcome !)
- Also fed with our generous french cuisine (mostly vegetarian and completely obsessed with taste)
- You can use our bikes and we can arrange also driving you where you need to, enjoying the sea, hiking (you should check the GR34 and walking around), biking in the region,
- Living the french and brittain way
- Dinner, wine, music and laugh
- ...
We are only 2H30 away from Paris (train), 10 min from Guingamp (car), 15 min from Lannion (car) and 20 min from the coast (car).
We don't mind about your age or where you come from, the only rule is respecting each other and great vibes ✨
So, do not hesitate to write us a message, we will answer to all of your questions and might meet anytime soon in real life !
Bisous bisous,
Diane and Alex
