Description
I hope you could help me to continue to renovating my old house (1753) this year and I need help, général maintenance, gardening, meal preparation, painting, artist painting also, plasterboard ,... or something we'll find usefull. Sometimes I stay at my girlfriend house, 5 km away. So perhaps you'll stay with me to help with gardening, general maintenance, pait,... I live in a little village near the forest. I am a native-born Belgian who has lived in France since 2011. I have green house but my garden is always plenty of weeds.
I ama father of 3 boys (34, 32 and 30 years old). They live in Belgium and occasionally in the Vosges in my home.
I experienced workaway life as a worker in Scotland in July 2018.
I make sometimes my bread. I have my own source of pure water.
I am a member of an association that maintains an old saw mill.
In order to show you how it works, I would demonstrate it to you by cutting 1 wooden board.

Guy was very nice and patient with me. He helped me a lot to improve my French language skills and besides famous folk dances, I also learned more about plants, wood and baking. The nature around Mandray is beautiful, quiet and peaceful. Perfect for a walk.

I'm sorry I'm so late writing this! My friend, Grace, and I stayed with Guy as a last minute host last September. He was the very first host we stayed with, and it was a great experience. He was so much fun and very accommodating. Plus, he makes great bread! :) We had a wonderful time!

There is no stress with Guy and we had a lot of fun cooking for… read more

Such a very good experiment with Malvin and Hasiq.
They are very good guys, with a lot of humour. But they can work very hard even if the work is a little bit painful (nettles). They cooked me very fine meal of their country, spicy and very nice.
They were the first Asians i met, and i won't forget them.
I recommand this two kindly guys

Had the pleasure of spending 2 weeks with Guy and it felt like so much longer as I felt so at home here. Guy is very assiduous with everything he does and super enthusiastic about all aspects of the house and surrounding area. You can rest assured that you will be well fed and always be laughing with his (awful) Belgian jokes.
