Description
Ready for some volunteer work in the South-West of France ? We need your help and positive vibrations to paint shutters. The work is not really difficult, but it is much more fun to be a team to do this task.
We are living in a house in the countryside 40 km away from Bordeaux. This is the famous region of vineyards. The villages around are really nice, and not so touristic. Local life guarantee ! We are currently renovating the house and garden. You can see in the pictures what kind of work needs to be done. We enjoy meeting new people, it's a way of traveling while staying at home !
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 have a good time while working on the house and visiting the surroundings during week-ends. If you are interested to know us ; welcome ! If you are more than 25 years old even better.

Echange culturel et opportunités d'apprendre
This is the right place if you want to share for a while the everyday life of a French family. Maybe not a classical one ! we can speak Spanish or English but we can also speak slowly in French for you to practice the language.
It's better to have a car to go around, but we can also let you use our bicycles. You can go by bus or train to Bordeaux. You can visit the vineyards around.
Aide
I think it is quite boring to work alone so I am happy to be helped with it : painting, gardening ... We already received volunteers and we enjoy it. We also have various experiences as a volunteer.

The volunteer sleeps in a room. We share our meals... we cook, or we are happy to taste what you are cooking ! We are mainly vegetarian and we get our vegetables (and eggs) from the very nice local market on Saturdays morning in Cadillac.
