  Description

  Hey there ! We are a farmer family living in the North of France (a dad - 51 & 2 kids - 22 & 18). I've been hosting couch-surfers for a long time which has been a great experience, but since they are usually just passing by for a few days, I am looking for a cultural exchange that would last a bit longer. :-)
  
  The farm has 12 horses and at home, 3 cats.
  - Mainly looking for help around the house (cooking & cleaning) as well as with the horses if you are knowledgable.
  - I would like to host a workawayer during school vacation periods where I can be present & focus more on the farm and less on my other work.
  
  Would you like to be our guest ?
  - Our guest will sleep in a private room, and shared wc & shower with the children.
  - I'm especially interested in the chance to have a language exchange between French and English, and general cultural discovery.
  
  So, l propose to you to experience a french farmer life :-)
  
  See you soon,
  
  Arnaud

  Aide

  On the farm l have a lot of work with my horses. I am also looking for help in cleaning our common areas, the kitchen, and helping prepare meals (lunch and dinner). This all will help me maintain the house and complete my hours on the farm. I sometimes have to work late & run out of time, so any help to make life easier would be appreciated !
