More details about your skills

Laure can speak several languages and has always organized holidays for the family, and even a 9-month trip around the world in 2018.
She loves cooking (especially pastries !). She was raised in the French countryside and knows about gardening and growing vegetables, she has her own veggies garden at home.
She is also good at sewing, embroidering and crocheting.
She knows how to paint walls, ceilings, furniture and she has always done a lot of DIY as she loves manual activities.

Wilfrid is a DIY guy, with his Swiss knife in the pocket at all time ! He knows a lot of mechanics, he can repair almost everything, even domestic appliances, computers, cars ... He can work with wood too.
He plays several music instruments (saxo, piano...).
But he is not good at lenguages, he needs to improve his english.

Fantin, our youngest son, is behind this new experience. He doesn't like school so much, he should have started high school in September but asked for some months abroad before starting a new diploma. He wants to work in agriculture/environment, especially with forests, rivers and wildlife. He can help with lots of things, he is especially interested in plants, animals and also DIY (like his father !).
