    Descrição

    Hi everyone, we are Elena and François, a Belgian/Spanish couple living in Menugoutte, a small village lost in the Belgian Ardenne. We have two children, and after traveling a lot, we are now finishing the construction of our family home and starting a new project: building a second Roulotte (a wooden trailer/tiny house).

    Building our house has been our main focus for the past three years, as we wanted to create a home that aligns our ecological and human values. Before starting the house, we built our first Roulotte, to practice but also to host travelers, friends, and family. Now, thanks to the help of Workawayers, our house is almost finished, and we’re excited to start building a second Roulotte (two kids = two Roulottes :D).

    Elena works in an unusual place of lodging of treehouses and François works animation films/photo/video. We also have backgrounds in education and social work.

    We welcome travelers with or without construction experience, as long as they have lots of motivation!! If you're interested in construction/eco-construction, woodworking, alternative housing, music, or nature, you’ll feel right at home here. We prefer to welcome duos or couples, it's more pleasant since that way you will not be alone when we take some time off to take care of our little children. We like to have a video call before confirming a stay.

    We are mainly looking for Workawayers from Sunday, March 9 to 21, 2025.

  • Acomodação

    Acomodação

    Our first Roulotte is not very spacious but very comfortable and unique, you can sleep comfortably being 2. It includes: a double bed, a dry toilet, a shower, a wood stove, an induction hob, some utensils, a sink, a fridge, a table and stools! There is electricity and a can of drinking water that we can fill you on demand and we can also provide Wi-Fi access. We built the trailer in the nice little village of Menugoutte, lost in the Belgian Ardenne, not far from Herbeumont and Neufchâteau.

    We are vegetarian, so for the meals we invite you to discuss with us to find the best arrangement. Depending of you we can provide or sharing our meals (with also the possibility of cooking in our trailer).

    We can show you some nice natural spots like hiking places, forests or river.

    The nearest town is Neufchateau (7km) but if you come by train the most convenient is to get off at Libramont station (about 15km). We can come and pick you at the station :D
