  We're not hosting at the moment due to lack of accommodations. Coming back soon :)
  
  Hello ! My name is Sylvain, and I'm a found of nature and gardening. Since I don't really give myself time to travel that much any longer I d be very happy to be part of your travels.
  
  I m turning 10 ha of meadow and old xmass trees into diversified orchards according to the agroecological concepts.
  It's a lot of work and experimentations.
  
  Bernard and Ruth, the owners of the place are a sweet retired couple in their eighties. Bernard is the oldest paraglinder around and Ruth who is from Switzerland but who grew up in Chicago loves teaching languages to immigrants and baking carrot cakes
  
  In Jalhay, you ll find a nice lake, a tiny natural park named the High Fens and a beautiful forest.

I also enjoy going out depending on the music.

  Ayuda

  I mostly need help with the vegetable garden and the orchads; weeding, doing seedling, ect, mowing, harvesting, building and maintaining the sheds, petting Charly the ginger cat whose need of cuddling could turn it hairless, chopping wood.... Sometimes we also do some canning or such things. Help with cooking is often welcome too ^^

  Alojamiento

  In summer I often sleep in Cockaifagne in an old trailer as It's low confort and privacy I d like to build something else for the guests when I ll have got the time wich as everyone knows means never gonna happen. ^^
  
  Otherwise I stay in my family house, where my broter's room is available most of the time and a double bed for guest in the living room as well. My mother is a great person, especially if you 're interested in energetic healing and never ending phonecalls. There are nice forests around and a beautiful lake 5 minutes by bike from the house.
  
  I also have a room in in a big house in Fraipont near Liège where I live with three women and a men my age and little men some month old. There's a kind of guest/music room before my room that's available too and a huge living room. My house mates make quite a good company. The area is quite nice there as well and there s a train station at 1 kilometre. It's also possible to stay there as coach surfer.

  Algo más...

  Nature is pretty enjoyable in my area. You ll have internet with cable, books in french and english, few some in spanish, few in german. I can provide you with montain bikes and maps or show you around if I have some spare time. Jalhay is easy to get to by bus from Verviers but I can eventually pick you up somewhere if you're not far or if you lack of hitch-hiking luck.
