    Descrição

    We reside in a quaint village nestled amidst majestic mountains with ruins of an age-old castle. Our location is near the Spanish border, offering access to prime mountain passes, often graced by the Tour de France as it was this year 2024. This idyllic setting also harbours exceptional hiking trails, a climbing centre situated within the former Roman marble quarry; river, just across the road, and a nearby lake offer opportunities for thrilling activities like canyoning and kayaking nearby. For convenience, the village features essential amenities, including major shops, a post office, and a pharmacy.

    Please ensure that you possess an appropriate visa and health insurance. You will be asked to present your passport/ID and provide contact details for your next of kin.

    Familiarity with preparing delectable vegetarian dishes is necessary. We will take turns in meal preparation and cleanup, including routine cleaning of communal spaces.

    N.B. We strive to be environmentally friendly in any way we can, this includes following directions from the local authorities to compost all that is compostable, sort refuse into categories, and not waste water and energy wherever possible, this still allows us to have a daily hot showers, harvest solar energy and rainwater, and extract heat from air.

    We love company of other people and enjoy having visitors. Initially, we invite helpers to stay for one week, if all goes well, we would be happy to offer extended hosting, provided both parties are interested.

    To ensure a comfortable environment for all, we are unable to accommodate individuals who smoke, have alcohol or drugs dependencies , or are addicted to their mobile phone. Thank you for your understanding.

    We love to find joy in everything we do, whether we're in the house or out in the garden as well as exploring the enchanting surroundings, whether by car, bicycle, or on foot. There are frequent buses passing through from Spain to further into France.

    There will also be plenty of quiet and relaxing time to enjoy.

    PLEASE NOTE: This hosting is not suitable for digital nomads, or any other working from a distance individuals.

    Feel free to reach out for additional information or any questions you may have regarding the above information.

    Having being a workaway helpers ourselves, we are well versed in what hosting is about. We are currently involved in a house redecorating project. We need assistance with tasks such as stripping down old wallpaper, sanding down old paint on walls and woodwork, cleaning and repainting, and similar. Weeding, pruning trees, making paths. We are looking for help from two strong and healthy individuals to assist with a house redecorating project. This requires physical strength and stamina, and a good can-do attitude.

    Cyclists will find our area particularly appealing, as it is frequented by the Tour de France, featuring ideal routes for biking enthusiasts. Hikers, too, have the opportunity to explore renowned trails such as the GR10.

    Please be aware that we adhere to a vegetarian diet, and all the meals we will be preparing together (three meals a day) are vegetarian, not vegan. We might be able to offer bicycles for your use, and regular buses connect to various destinations in France and Spain. If needed, we are more than happy to arrange your pickup from the nearest train station.

    We will share duties such as cooking, cleaning after meals, keeping clean common areas, and collecting spring water (for drinking and cooking only as we do have mains water for washing, showers, etc.). These tasks do not form part of the 5 hrs daily exchange as they are tasks for hosts and helpers daily sustenance.

    The two free days do not necessarily fall at weekend as they follow the five days of exchange, which, in turns, start a day after your arrival here.
