Descripción
We are a family with 4 children and we are living in a little village Bellecombe en Bauges in the Massif des Bauges in the Alps. We are living here since 8 years. We are two families living on the farm. The other family has also 4 children and they have workawayers too.
Our children are 21-18-17 and 13 years old.
The two oldest daughters are studying, Lucie (21) in Strasbourg, Marion (18) in Paris.
Pierre, 17 years old, is in high school in Bourg en Bresse. He makes sport and studies together (Roadbiking) and Samuel, 13 1/3, is going to school in Le Chatelard, near our home. He makes sport too: Biathlon.
Marc and I (the parents) are both working. Marc is urbanist, and I'm operational director in a hotel.That's why we need help to take care of our home.
We have the experience of the workawayers from the other family and we enjoy a lot this way of life.

Dejado por el workawayer (Tyrone ) para el anfitrión

I stayed with the Tuttinos for 2 weeks and I can definitely say that staying with them has been such a lovely experience :) I left just this afternoon but I like to do my reviews fast (especially if I like the place) so I can capture all the details that are still fresh in my mind, so here we go! I got to meet the Tuttinos for the first time… read more actually in June/July? of this year, when I stayed at the workaway right next to their house. It was purely by chance, but the kids I would help look after and spend time with at the other workaway house liked to go over to this house (which was especially easy, as their houses are connected) and spend time with the 13 year old, Sam. Because of this, I got to meet most of their family and become friends with most of the kids (3/4 as the eldest wasn't there at that time) whom I kept in contact with after leaving! They left a really great impression on me last time, so I decided that it would be really nice if I could come back and visit them again, so that's what I did!

The region of France that they live in is incredibly gorgeous. Mountains and nature everywhere. Last time I was here, it was Spring, but this time it was Autumn, so there were a lot of gorgeous orange trees everywhere. Coming from Sydney, being surrounded by all this nature was a really nice change. Unfortunately, it was quite rainy while I was there, but that's okay because I don't mind being a homebody every now and then. I generally spent my days doing a few light and easy chores Céline would give me, reading, going on walks/runs, trying to learn some more French, cooking or baking, or frankly just sitting there (likely with a cat on my lap). I feel it's always nice to get the opportunity to slow down every once in a while. It gives me the opportunity to think and reflect on my life which is always great.

I tried to coincide my stay with the holidays of the kids at first, so it was nice to spend time with them in the beginning, and we got to do more fun activities, but around a week after they had to go back. Marion, the second eldest, goes to university in Paris, so she was only there for a short while, Pierre the third eldest, goes to high school in a nearby city, but boards during the week, and Sam, the youngest goes to a middle school nearby, but is still quite busy due to his biathlon training. This gave me a lot of time to myself, which I didn't mind at all. But for others, this might be less ideal. Maybe just keep this in mind. However, if luck has it, you will have good weather and can go on many adventures during the day! It is also ideal if you can drive manual :)

Some of the highlights of my stay included:

- Spending time with the family sharing meals and eating ungodly amounts of cheese
- Going for walks and really taking in all the nature
- Admiring SO many autumn leaves
- A little trip the children took me on to the top of a nearby mountain when there was snow (legitimate winter wonderland)
- Playing cards and games or watching movies with the family
- Peacefully baking away in the kitchen
- Their cats!!!
- Going on runs in the freezing cold and rain, even though it wasn't necessarily super fun, it was definitely an experience to remember!
- And perhaps most touching of all was when Marion, whom I had met up with in Paris before coming down, bought me a gift for my birthday. I spent my birthday in Sydney, but she texted me a couple days before asking if it was soon. I was super impressed already, because I probably only talked about it once in the maybe 4 days I saw her last time. Anyways, there was a ghibli pop up shop in Paris while I was there, and we were talking about it, but I didn't get the chance to go. We talked about our shared love for ghibli last time I was there, but I didn't realise she would remember and get me something from there. Not only that, but she had probably had it the whole time she was back at home, but waited to leave before letting her parents give it to me. There is something very very sweet about people who leave a gift for you without being there in person. It sort of feels so selfless in a way. Anyways, I admittedly cried twice because of the gesture. Once was at night when I was feeling very emotional and grateful for everything that has happened so far, and again the very next day when I told my mum on the phone what had happened. I think this is the first time I've ever cried over someone getting me a gift. The kindness and thoughtfulness of the gesture just really touched me, especially because I didn't expect it at all.

Overall, this family is incredibly sweet and a really good example of a solid and loving family unit. The children are obviously great and I hope to keep in contact with them far into the future. I even made a deal with the youngest that I'll return again when he makes 1000 euros with his first business! (Which may sound a bit outrageous but he is very smart and was already trying to do this while I was gone, and I can't make the goal too easy otherwise I'd be obliged to take another pricey flight to France soon hahhaa). If you read this review and decide to go, please give them a big hello from me too! To the Tuttinos, it has been a great privilege to visit, and I will see you all again soon, maybe in France, or maybe in Sydney!
