Hi !
We are a family of 4, parents and 2 girls, only the last one with us now, 23 years old. We have a big house in a nice area of Paris suburbs, only 10 mn from central Paris, with metro. Big garden, terrasse, lots of space. We are having works in the house at the moment, so not always so quiet !
My husband has recently stopped working and is now home, and plays the guitar, makes wonderful collages and paintings, and writes. I manage our house in Normandy which I rent and various other things from home. We are restoring a very big house near Barcelona and another big project in Nyons, South of France. So we are rarely at home ! ...
We love to have foreign people at home, it's a bit like traveling all the time !

A wonderful few weeks in the company of Francoise and her family were a real pleasure for me! We shared a common passion for healthy food, and my friends fearlessly tried the fruits of my culinary research, for which they thank you so much. The house deserves a separate compliment: an oasis of comfort and greenery in the urban desert, with a… read more

Perfect month with Anastasia. She is very reliable and she provided us with plenty of delicious homemade vegan food. She completely took over the kitchen and it was a quite a relief for me. And everyone loved the result !
She is very discreet about her life and her whereabouts, but very trustworthy. We would be glad to have her back one day !

I had the best time staying with Françoise, Oliver, Elsa and Chloe. They were all very welcoming and nice to me and the work was very easy. It was so cool being surrounding by so many music instruments being a musician myself. Elsa and I became really good friends and she took me to a lot of cool places and had a lot of fun with her.

I had a lovely two weeks with Francoise and her family. They were very patient with my French and I certainly improved.
