  Description

  This is a French/British home. We're laid back, easy going and open minded. We love a coffee at a terrace on the market square with friends! We also enjoy hunting for antic bargains in villages' brocante (flee market).
  We often travel, we've couchsurfed and worked away ourselves, so exchanging and giving back is something we've experienced and enjoyed. We welcome your help and we'll make sure you enjoy your time!
  
  I will be on my own to welcome you. My husband will be on holidays with our daughter and the dog. We take this opportunity to do some DIY while she's away.

  Aide

  >>Offer from JULY 28 to AUGUST 11.
  
  No minimum duration, maximum 10 days, end of July/ beginning of August.
  
  We've entirely refurbished our old house. The big dusty and noisy works are over, the house is clean!!
  NOW we need help with the finishing parts: some painting inside (not big walls but some doors, details here and there), sanding and painting the garage door, cutting and nailing the skirting boards, sanding furniture, put up light appliances...
  We also have many boxes and random stuff in the basement that need to be taken outside, sorted out, and either be thrown away, sold online or given to charity.
  Some gardening welcome, not a priority but if you fancy it.
  You can also take the lead on cooking or other household chores.
  I see opportunities for other various skills long as you're patient and willing!
  
  This is for 1 person, or 2 people is ok, ideally friends or a couple.
