    ** PERIOD: the month april 2023**
    => Half holiday, half work
    => Work to discuss (i.e. gardening, cooking, painting, some woodwork, bricklaying)
    => Lift by car possible from the Netherlands to France and vice versa.


    My family ownes a holiday home in the Ardèche, in the south of France. We are Dutch, and non native french speakers! After the retirement of my father and mother, they lived there each year from spring to fall. Now my mother is older, we use it as a family holiday house. Each family member uses the house for summerholiday for some weeks with his/ her family.

    As the eldest son I am 'responsible' to prepare the house each year for summer and close it for winter.... It's some work! Help is very welcome!

    We really love this calm and serene spot in nature. It gives us a smile on the face each time we arrive at it. We like to give you the opportunity to experience the same!

    The area has beautiful sceneries and is lovely for outdoor live, hiking, biking, visiting pittoresque villages and culinary discoveries.

    The house has good wifi, so if you want you can combine your stay with your online business or with working from 'home'.

    If you are interested to give some help, please contact me. Then I can tell you more about our nice house and the beautiful area. And we can decide if we have a 'click' together. I am open minded and like to meet new people. I will give you a warm welcome and treat you like a family member. I like nature, personal development, sports, hiking, yoga, meditation and good (vegetarian) food. Love to share this together.

    Nice to meet you, recieve your smile and connect.

    To experience all the benefits of the countryside of the south of France at a nice and quiet spot. Great to slow down and come to yourself and meet new people. As a host I treat a workawayer as a family member and like to have a good time together en show you around in the Ardèche. Next to that I am interested in personal development. Nice to have good conversations about this theme and learn from eachother. Especially on a nice, calm evening outside on the terrace with a small campfire. I practice yoga and meditate. Always nice to practice together. I will look forward to meet you.

    Help: it's an old house with much surroundings, so always some work to do :). Preparing our family holiday home for the summer time (in spring) and closing it for the winter (in autumn). Next to this, there is always some maintenance work to be done at the house.

    I like to keep the work relaxt ;) and meet new people. Help is welcome. I am looking for one to three persons. The more hands, the easier and nicer the work.

Renovate stone terrace, Outdoor painting (shutters, window frames). Co-tiddying the terrace.
    Inside: window frames, painting window frames, walls, wooden ceiling. Renovate / plaster walls. Co-tiddying the house. Cooking (if we are with a a few people).

    Old house with all facilities on a terrain in nature. A small village close by with all services.

    You will have a sleeping room en suite for your self with lots of privacy. If more people join, maybe not everyone has it's own sleeping room.

    Algo más...

    Work and time to be discussed. I think of:
    - half day work, half day free time
    - place to sleep, food and drinks on my expenses. Fresh croissants in the morning and good wine at it's time.
    - opportunity to travel with me for free in the car from the Netherlands
    - period: to be discussed.

    Feel welcome!

    The village can be reached by bus, a train station at 25 km. TGV trainstation at 70 km. No problem to pick you up from the station. I can you give a lift from the Netherlands as well (both directions).

    Free time: as mentioned the region (south) Ardèche is beautiful and great to explore. Hiking, biking etc. The house and it terrain is great to slow down an come to rest; read a book, swim or do your yoga practice.
