Cultural exchange and language practice in charming riverside home near Lyon, France

Detalhes

  Descrição

  We are a 50-year-old couple living in France, in a riverside village along the Saône called Saint-Bernard. It is located 30 km north of Lyon, right next to the Beaujolais wine region.
  We have two billy goats, six cats, and a dog, and we live in a large house equipped with all modern amenities. We absolutely love traveling, especially to the United States.
  We would love to host a native English speaker who wants to travel to France, discover our culture, share their own, and help each other progress in our respective languages.
  You will have your own bedroom with a private bathroom.
  We are located just 10 minutes away from train stations, making it easy for you to travel independently. We also work from home part of the time.
  We would be delighted to show you around the region and share our lifestyle with you. The only thing we would ask is that you look after our animals on the rare occasions when we are away.
  All our animals are adorable. Everyone loves the house, which features a view of the river and a walking trail right at our doorstep.
  We often host or go out with friends, though not every single weekend. On Thursday evenings, we attend a country dancing class in the village. We take daily walks with our dog and are currently preparing for the local Christmas market festivities at the end of the year. We rarely get bored

  We ask that you look after the animals whenever we need to be away for up to 48 hours for work or other reasons, or simply when we are out of the house.
  We will always provide detailed instructions, and you will already be familiar with how the house runs, but there is nothing complicated about it!
  We also expect you to pitch in with the house cleaning, just like everyone else living in the home.

  Meus animais / animais de estimação

  

  Elvis and jackson (10 anos)

  Two billy goats. They are twins and honestly, they're just two big cowards who run and hide at the slightest noise! But otherwise, they are always looking for our company.

  

  Texas (9 anos)

  Very affectionate, she loves it when people are home; she was the baby of the family for a long time

  

  Haley (15 anos)

  The most discreet of them all, she is rather fearful but very attached to her environment. Easy-going

  

  Phoebe (15 anos)

  Our grumpy girl, never happy, but who loves her daddy more than anything

  

  Will (11 anos)

  The ultimate velcro cat, always purring

  

  Edgar Shelby and Miller (6 meses)

  Two adorable kittens. Two very different brothers, but rather calm with their moments of madness. Found in the garden, born to a stray cat

  

  Daenerys (10 anos)

  Border Collie mix. Lovely girl, a bit timid but incredibly sweet and endearing
