  Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

  We are in a lovely spot, near a lake, lots of great walks and chances to enjoy the French countryside. You can learn from a variety of projects we have ongoing and in the pipeline, helping you learn new skills and hopefully have fun at the same time. We are English speaking, but I can speak reasonable French too. We can share lots of skills in terms of gardening, building and renovating a home, but also we both love to cook so happy to share tips and you will of course be welcome to join us for evening meals and great conversation
