Help us to maintain the houses and the land of the Natural park in Signes, South of France

Description

We are a couple with a 12 years old child, a dog and 2 cats. We live in a natural park 30 minutes from the Mediterranean Sea. We love nature walks and yoga, we are rather vegetarian. We offer 3 cottages for rent all year in a land of 1 hectare.
Our project is to live closer to nature by cultivating our values of sharing, conviviality and well-being. To manage our place, Marie takes care of the administration, the stewardship and the kitchen garden, and I, Martin maintain the house, the places of reception, the garden and the swimming pool. This year we will receive groups of 10 to 12 peoples for 1 week, once or twice a month and we need to reform some part of the house and outside place to get ready!

Echange culturel et opportunités d'apprendre

We live in Signes near a traditional village of the south of France, known for its "green tourism" (paragliding, mountain biking, equestrian walks ...) and we are 1 hour from Marseille, Aix en Provence and Toulon. Many walks are nearby, beaches and coves are less than 45 minutes by car. We are both teachers of Kundalini Yoga and have a permaculture garden. Martin can also transmit his knowledge in construction ... Together we speak: French, English, Spanish, Portuguese, Vietnamese!
