  Descripción

  I am renovating this house all on my own, and I have a project to build up the garden with fruit trees and vegetables, to become more self sufficient, and provide a space for other artists like myself to come and have quiet, nature-based retreats to resource and renew... I have a long term wish to build a sauna as my garden has a very cold river at the bottom! For the moment I just have the plunge pool! There is a fantastic big lake very nearby and a beautiful old village in walking distance, with a couple of eateries, shop, very old church and small independant art gallery.

  they could learn DIY skills as I also continue to learn them, musical skills, gardening skills, language skills. Languages spoken here: English French German Swedish Norwegian. I’m a professional musician so I’m sure that musical exchanges can happen too. I am half english/German but mostly speak French here. I live in a beautiful area with lots of walks (cycling also good), and food markets, old castles, a huge lake, wine culture, lots of activities possible… hoping to meet new interesting people through workaway!

  Ayuda

  I am renovating a house in an old medieval French village near Albi, Gaillac, Toulouse and could do with an extra pair of hands, as I am currently doing it all myself with occasional help from friends!
  
  It’s mostly decoration, sanding plastering painting but some garden work too. My wish is to get a veg garden going and plant more fruit trees in addition to those I already have. If I have an extra pair of hands things could go a lot faster and I’d be able to start planting things in the garden too!

  I am half English/German, and have lived in many countries, especially in Sweden and Norway where I return often, and learned the languages, but I have been for 10 years now in France, and am happy here for the moment!

  I also work from home with meetings and lessons occasionally so if there’s a need to do that then that’s fine, as long as there’s some help when I need!
