Description
We're a small estate in southwest of France, living in a small 2000 people village in mountains. We work on gardens and in the house, having couple fun and crazy dogs, chicken in back yard of our 1631 built townhouse. We are looking for help on in our non commercial family gardens. We're from Finland, but made IT careers in the US before moved here to France making something meaningful in a beautiful settings. We have a lot of garden projects and animals to be around. The village and its people are very nice, a lot of artists, young people, old people and everything in between. We have adult kids who spend here time help with us from Barcelona and Helsinki when they have time.
