    Description

    Hi, our family of 4 live in south of France close to Mediterraneen sea and big city Montpellier, around "Etang de Thau" Lake, Mèze.
    We moved in our home for 3 years but we haven’t finished to embelish it.
    We need some help to do little things such Wood painting and lights in the studio, cleaning our garden, add a new Automatic watering system, vegetable and flowers gardening , little diy in our house in bathroom, kitchen, fixing little things I do not have time to do alone ...
    helping us to cook for dinner will be nice
    And if children are ok, babysit them during 1 evening per week to allow us to go the cinema or restaurant …

    We have little house (15 m2) behind ours so you would be independant.(it needs some diy , but it’s clean and confortable )
    You can be on your own when you need it but we can share some meals together if you want to and cook together.
    We love cooking (and eating )


    It would be so nice to talk in your langage with our 2 boys kids, 4years and 7 years okd . They really loved our last 2 workawayers 2 years ago

    We love cooking, chilling at home with kids, doing cycling with them, reading ....
    we have a bike road just behind our house so you can go to countryside easily.

    My husband is a runner. He loves reading comics books. both in french and english. and also mangas
    He likes cooking for his family. He likes wine as he was raised in a wine salesman family : he can speak about it for hours. However, We do not drink wine everyday 😅
    He works at home full remote .

    I work from home most of time with my hands (sewing company in zero waste , printing on demand and part time office manager ).
    I used to work for big companies in controlling management but I get bored of it and wanted to do something more artistic
    I also love painting abstract art, gardening and DIY. And I used to play flute and violin but this was so long ago 😆
    I like playing strategic games
    I am also interested in permaculture and wild vegetable we can find in countryside.

    We both try to reduce our carbone footprint in general and do not eat meat everyday . We like japanese food , vegan food and open to discover your traditional food !

    We can spend Time in family and have dinner all together if you want to practice your French, but we also need to be by our own sometimes ;-)

    especially the morning with school because this is a crazy moment with kids, running everywhere, yelling, and stressful moment not really pleasant moment for guests... even if they are really kind boys , 🥰they are so slow on the morning : we are late every morning 😭

    My husband speaks english quite fluently and I do my best, but we are not bilingual.

    I need help to finish to embelish the house. I need someone ok to do tasks with and for a woman because my husband hates diy 😅

    I want to finish the studio where you will live and my house .
    few little things in the studio : mezzanine’ s studio needs to be vernished. Some cupboard attached to wall in bathroom to fix lampshade , more safety for the mezzanine

    In my home, little DIY in bathroom, lampshade…

    Garden : to clean leaves, to cut trees, to bring dunghill to vegetable garden , to remove weeds, Some little gardening if you like to dirty your hands ;-) ( 500m2 ) such as pulling grasses, planting little trees before winter , filling big hole, preparing next vegetable gardening season, finishing to install automatic water …


    Maybe helping us with kids : keep an eye on them and speak to them in your own language while we are cooking or cleaning or DIY :) and babysit them 1 evening a week if children feel safe with you to let us to go watch a movie or to go to cinema

    We live in small town named Mèze with several restaurants and good local products such as oysters, juicy vegetables and fruits, a pie named "Tielle" with tomatoes and octopus, and others typical meal from here ... small cinema, ...
    Mèze is surrounded by countryside, vineyard, natural spaces called “Guarrigues” with no high trees and famous salted lake "Etang de Thau" . It’s look like sea but with less /nearly no waves
    « Etang de thau » Beach is 10 minutes from our house by bicycle (we can lend one to you).
    It looks like sea rather than a lake : with sand, salt, littles waves and boats away. few people on the Beach or less than on sea Beach by summer in SÈTE,Marseillan or Frontignan around 20 min by car
    Agde beach by 30 min

    The nearest city is Montpellier. About 25 minutes by car or Bus.


    Our house is at the end of the town so you can go in countryside by foot and bicycle , path is just behind our house.
    We are not far away from little mountain, beautiful nature to do hiking, biking, ... sea activities.
    Visiting old French town such as Pezenas, SÈTE ...
    Lot of Art museum in Montpellier and Sète ! And concerts.

    There is little Tiger mosquitos in summer and everyday with a sunny weather: they go outside afternoon and beginning of the night only

    Not big dog and not outside your area without watching it. Because I am too afraid he can destroy my loving garden or children toys 😅Or we can manage to add gates around the studio ;-) but we like animals, my children too. We only have a turtle and savage birds ;-) (hirondelles from April to September )
