. We need help from Beginning of February
Hello friends of the world,
We are a french family my wife is from Wales and I am french. We have had five children most of them already at work , the last one is a comedian who has his own company called Totem in Paris .
We live in a very comfortable old manor house in the south west of France by the river Lot and have a typical French country house where we are now making the decorations . Besides decoration we will get on in our new garden.
So we do need help and good company. Two single persons or one couple, loving to work as a team, we all work together in the mornings and then rest in the afternoon . Lots of beautiful places to visit in our area. We are in a wine area called Cahors. Usually the spring season is very beautiful and everything grows very fast, specially our giant bamboos.
Our main interest is to meet new people and share our experiences, your stories, your travels. We have traveled to India, Europe, USA, Mexico.lived for 8 months in Morocco for a music festival. We like spiritual people, yoga, meditation, travel experiences.
Do not hesitate to contact us and ask as any questions as you wish. We always answer.
Thanks for reading our profile and we wish to meet you soon.
