  Oportunidades de intercâmbio cultural e aprendizado

  We are surrounded by beautiful countryside in a peaceful area and the climate is lovely from the springtime onwards. As we are in rural France this is an ideal way to experience real French culture, unspoilt by over development. There are several places to visit, local Chateaux, local markets, beautiful medieval churches . As we grow some of our own fruit and vegetables there is the opportunity to learn some horticulture and learn/practice your DIY skills.

  Ajuda

  I am are in the process of converting our barn attached to the house.This is an ongoing project. There are plenty of tasks that need doing in the barn so there are things to do that would be ok for any level of DIY skills.
  I have have a large garden which needs regular mowing with our ride on mower.
  
  We need help with the work on the barn and upkeep of the garden and grooming the dogs . All of this is generally straight forward and does not require any specialised skills.

  There are lovely walks around the local area, occasionally i have friends visit for meals etc and the odd game of chess. I can assist with transport by taking people to the nearest train station and pick you up again, where possible. Lake Siddiailles is about a twenty minutes drive from us from us where you can swim, hire small canoes or do climbing activities.La Chatre is about twenty minutes away and has a lovely market on Saturday mornings, where regularly go. Bourges is about an hour away and has lots of historical interest.
