Descripción
Bonjour! We are Eyal and Tia, with our cats Caramelle and Magic, and dog Louvabelle. Our home on a forested hill above farmland offers ever-changing views of the Pyrenees. The bright, double-volume living room opens onto a terrace, pool, and garden.
In our free time, we host Shakespeare and poetry readings, and creative workshops for personal growth. These earn no income, so we need your creative, DIY, housework and gardening help to create a comfortable and stimulating environment to pursue this dream.
We work hard but enjoy relaxing with yoga, walking, cycling, swimming, sightseeing, events like the Marciac Jazz and Madiran Wine Festivals, and skiing in the Pyrenees. Restaurants, markets, wine farms, galleries, museums and horse riding are nearby. Within 1 to 2 hrs by car are climbing, skiing, river rafting, spas, caves, and beaches.

It is our first workaway experience. Overall it was a wonderful experience. Tia and Eyal brought us around Maubourguet and introduced us to another town nearby - Marciac. They also brought us to a beach - Biarritz during one of the weekend. The first week was a little tiring as we do not have much free time after completing the house work, project… read more

It was a pleasure to host Dominique. She has a calm and courteous presence and is a quick learner. She is inexperienced, but that won't last long, because she is also brave, willing to try out new things and to take on tasks that are strange to her. We enjoyed her cooking and her sense of humour.
