  Description

  We are a warm and friendly family consisting of a Spanish husband, a British wife, and our two lively sons. Our family values the simple pleasures of life and enjoys good food, wine, and gin and tonics enjoying the sunsets with friends. Nestled in the picturesque town of Bonneville, we have embarked on a unique journey to renovate our charming 300 year old house and its surrounding plot of land.
  
  Our lovely house is rich with character and we are diligently working to restore it to its former glory. With Dani's passion for DIY and his professional training in electricity, plumping and bio-construction - he has been the driving force behind much of the renovation work. However, there are still plenty of tasks to be tackled to realize our dream home. Whether it's carpentry, painting, upcyclling or creating arts with old objects, gardening, landscaping, or general maintenance, there's always something exciting happening at our property.
  
  As a family, we relish our time together, but there simply aren't enough hours in the day to accomplish everything. That's where you come in! We would love to have an extra pair of hands and a fresh perspective to help us bring our house and land to perfection. Your assistance will not only help us achieve our goals but also provide you with a unique experience in the heart of the French Alps.
