Description

hi we are Ben and Ophélia and our 8 month old son Nayan.
we use to be a workaway host and we'll be again in the coming years. we know well that it is a very nice solution to get projects going forward and to meet nice people that become friends. for moment Ophélia and me are very happy to be workaways and to travel, work, help in different farm or project where we can learn and share many things about permaculture and self sufficient living style. we live in Jura province in France and we just bought a 8 ha land. we are quite use to gardening and farming activity. we are also handy with most of the building jobs. we are rock climber and always happy to bring friends at the cliff. we also love sailing. cheers
