Description
Hi ! Glad to have you here. Let's first introduce ourself : Andjali (27) is an enthousiast sewer. She likes dancing and art in general. Remi (28) is a woodwork lover. He is woodturner and woodcarver. We both share the same values and we try according our lifestyle to it : ecology, tolearance, freedom. We've been traveling together and stayed at some Workaways which gave us the will to become host ourself someday. As we wanted to settle down we bought a land (half hectare) in a beautifull village named Rouvenac to start a project from the really beginning.
That leads us to describe the project : on our land we are working on creating our small paradise. We started building our house, made from wood, strawbales and earth. Almost everything will be done by ourself so there's a lot of exciting construction help the volunteers can participate to. On the other hand everything about landscaping has to be created : gardening, planting trees, setting up fences and chilling areas.. We've got plenty of project and a variety of different things to do so nobody won't get bored by coming here.
We want to make sure you're aware that it is construction site life, so not the most comfortable place on earth -although the view is amazing-, but we will make our best to make you feel home, to cook you good meals and to make your stay a pleasant experience.
