We stayed with Jean-Yves and his family for three weeks and had an amazing time there.
Jean-Yves was a great host and made us feel at home from the beginning. We helped building insulation walls, a magnificent alcove in the workshop and other small renovation works. We were beginners in using tools and Jean Yves was patient enough to teach us

Moreover, the food was absolutely delicious, made with fresh and local products. We discovered a lot about the culture of the Jura and the area is beautiful for hiking or biking.
This is the perfect place for someone who's looking to stay in a remote place with great nature around and is keen to learn new skills.
Thanks Jean-Yves, Michelle, and Henri for your hospitality and company ! ❤️Só é possível entrar em contato com Workawayers com assinaturas ativas.

Danilo stayed with us for 3 weeks and was of great help during this time; he participated in many projects including wood work and lime work on various walls and proved to be very skillful in all sorts of other DIY issues.

At Jean-Yves's I had my first workaway experience and I feel very lucky to have stumble upon such a welcoming place in the middle of the mountains.

For me the work was the best part of my day, even on my days off I usually ended up doing one or other thing with Jean-Yves just because it was fun. There's always new workawayers coming to the place, so there's always new and interesting people to meet. All in all a great, difficult to top experience. 1000% recommend, Mijoux is beautiful the cheese is awesome, the wine plenty and god bless the queen!

Jana stayed with us for 2 weeks and it was a great pleasure to host her, her smile and her kindness.

We spent three wonderful weeks with Jean-Yves and his family, and we truly wish we could have stayed even longer. We learned a lot, ate a lot, and laughed a lot!
Jean-Yves is a great host, always making sure that we were well-informed and properly prepared for the tasks at hand, and there were many tasks to choose between - building, renovating,

Mijoux is a charming little town, and there are lots of beautiful hikes and walks in the area. And the house is just marvelous! We learned a lot about the local history and culture from both Jean-Yves and his mother, both of whom have loads of great stories to tell.
We will remember this stay fondly - the skills we learned, the meals we shared, and of course all the great conversations we had :)Só é possível entrar em contato com Workawayers com assinaturas ativas.
