Left by Workawayer () for host (Share our beautiful home and ...)

We had a lovely one-month stay in Aigaliers with Tanur, Gilles, and Mara in July 2025. It’s very hard to put the wonderful experience into words in a short review - the people, the place, the atmosphere.

The tasks we had to do daily, quickly became a smooth and enjoyable routine of our mornings. Everything was clearly explained to us by Gilles or… read more Tanur. The work mostly consisted of maintenance around the house and garden, helping out at breakfast time, and then finishing up with more household tasks such as sweeping, vacuuming, cleaning, and ironing. Both Tanur and Gilles are very patient and helpful, and they make you feel completely comfortable asking questions.

Since everything was done in the mornings, we had the afternoons off. During that time, we could go on walks through the truly beautiful surroundings of Aigaliers - where every morning and evening felt more breathtaking than the last - enjoy the pool, relax, or explore nearby towns. The house itself is in the countryside, so it is peaceful and allows you to truly live a slow, mindful life. At the same time however there are great bus connections that make it possible to get to nearby towns.

But the most wonderful thing here was not just the nature, the cutest dog called Mara, the help we could offer or Tanur’s amazing food (although that comes very close to the top of the list) - it was getting to know Tanur and Gilles. Funny, talented, intelligent, and above all kind people who are willing to share a part of their world with you. A world they are deeply engaged in and dedicated to in the best way possible. The thing I enjoyed most was perhaps the conversations I had with them about the things they are passionate about. It’s not often that you meet such down to earth, like-minded people, and for that I am incredibly grateful.

Through Tanur and Gilles, we were also lucky enough to meet some of their friends as well as their family (who were just as special) and share memorable dinners filled with amusing stories and the most interesting conversations.

So in the end, even though we stayed only a month, we definitely did not feel like strangers. Learning new things, enjoying the surroundings, getting to know Gilles and Tanur - in short, stepping into the reality of Aigaliers for a whole month - was a wonderful privilege. An experience I am convinced will stay with me for the rest of my life. I am very thankful to have had this opportunity.

(Excellent)
