  Oportunidades de intercâmbio cultural e aprendizado

  There is wifi and some of our helpers have been doing French courses while they have been staying with us, then having the possibility of going out to practice with the locals.
  
  Our property is on the edge of a town and there are lots of walks and cycle routes in the area. It is a quiet, tranquil location and makes a pleasant change from the rush and noise of urban environments. The accommodation is clean and comfortable and we are flexible hosts. We am still in touch with many of my Workawayers from the last 8 years and love hearing about their travels and experiences.
