Description
I am Patrick, a retired anthropologist and recently I bought a property near the mont saint Michel close to the sea. The garden has a surface of 4500 square meters. There are many trees, but I would like to plant more and especially start a permaculture garden. I'm also renting a room in my house that need to be cleaned.
Most of the time I live alone. My wife is Brazilian and works in her country.
I like to travel around. Since my retirement from the university I have devoted a lot of time to the renovation of my former house and to the co-gestion of an organic grocery.
I have two daughters and 4 grand children that I met every month.
I'm use to spend the beginning of the year in Brazil and to come back home around March15th. The tasks I plan depends on the skills of the workawayers. There is nothing very technical but the presence of people I can exchange with on multiple topics makes the life richer.
During the spare time we can visit the surroundings and go to the beach to pick up seafood, swim etc. depending on the season.
I want to make it clear that I am committed to the principles of workaway based on cultural and service exchange. I consider the workawayers above all as friends to whom I offer the best conditions of hospitality in exchange for their help.
