    Hello my name is Gabrielle I am Australian and I’ve been living In France for 10years. In Australia I was an executive chef & for many years travelling around the world, and then I did an apprenticeship as a builder and so for the past 20 years I became a builder... For my retirement ..I came to live in french countryside for a peaceful life and the love of renovating old houses and gardening . there are always some projects .
    I mostly Live by myself, but have some friends who stay. I have been hosting for many years and absolutely enjoy meeting and appreciate the so many lovely helpers ...Its usually great company for me as well. Read my reviews I am sure that if you read what you like that I have here to offer, then Im sure we will have a great experience, lots of fun, learn new skills, immerse yourself in a french cultural and language experience in a truly beautiful part of France

    During the week we enjoy meals together lunch dinner we will work 5 days. Usually A Saturday occasionally and we swap out days. Expect to be flexible as I prefer some times to just get a job finished. with an extra hour here ar there. but you will get it back also in free times and days off
    NOTE : On the weekends You are independent cook your own meals and look after yourselves . Enjoy your own private time
    I can drop you off to visit local castles and towns. We visit markets where you can practice your french on weekends too.
    There are beautiful landscapes are here for ever and you can do some great hikes and do photography as well. For those who want to practice french we can speak together my friends are all french and many dont speak english so you will have opportunity to practise. I have practice books as well.

    I look forward to hearing from you
    Gabrielle
