Description
Our family is living in a house in the countryside 40 km away from Bordeaux. We are currently renovating the house and garden. During the summer 21 we were able, thanks to the help of volunteers, to make the house nice (you can see the pictures !). We still have things to do, but we also need to work in the office... so it is not so simple now to receive volunteers.
Thus, we might receive you if you are a person or two, with experience in renovation or gardening, autonomous, and if you can achieve some chores alone. So, it won't be the best place to practice French for the moment, because you will be alone part of the day !
About us : My companion and I have been traveling quite a lot, and even if we are not so young (in our 50's), we keep, I hope, an open mind and are good company. We are interested with ecology, social matters, music, yoga ...
We are happy to meet new people and have a good time while working on the house and visiting the surroundings during week-ends.

This is the right place if you want to share for a while the everyday life of a non classical French family. We do not watch TV, we do not like the local white wine produce in the area (real sweet), and we prefer tasty vegetarian food than a BBQ ! But we are eager to let you taste that wine and make up your own idea, and if you fancy meat, BBQ is possible also ;-)/
We enjoy going to the local market to get some fresh and organic food, taking part of cultural events, and listening to live music.

How to transform a small house of the 70s into a small cocooning place ? This is the challenge that we invite you to share during the year.
You might have to cook your own meal at lunch time, and we eat together in the evenings. Good atmosphere, discussions in French, or in English or Spanish, and we hope to be able to enjoy some cultural events in the region !
There is also plenty of work in the garden. We expect from you to have experience in house and garden maintenance.
Please read this, before you apply ;-)
