Description
I love hosting workaways, but only look on this site when I have availability, so don't be offe ded if I don't respond.
Looking for NOW till 20th MAY 2025
Hello, I live near a lovely town (Vallauris) in a wonderful part of France, 8 min drive to Cannes and Antibes, 20min to Nice and 50mins to Monaco.
I've been here 24 years, run 2 businesses in the area and am English. I speak French too, but am much funnier in English!
My house has just had a total renovation and currently I have 2 double bedrooms sharing a bathroom with shower, on an entire floor that are available for either 2 singles or 2 couples. I have fibre wifi and a garden, and a sea view of the Mediterranean sea.
I am 57 years old and reasonably sporty, non smoker, not much of a drinker and would like some help MAINLY Painting varnishing AND HANDYMAN STUFF plus doing painting and varnishing work just to finish off the recent project. 20 hours per week preferable, completely flexible on hours.
I am a decent cook, and great company if you like sardonic humor and board games/cards/backgammon.
Full Netflix and IPTV.
Having a car would be preferable, and there is parking, however there are decent buses and a coastal train access up until 8pm. Also I am always driving to either Antibes or Monaco if lifts are needed and I have a bicycle that anyone can use.
