Règles

The qualities we are looking for volunteers : you are not a smoker, not alcoholic, and you have no addictions. You are honest, trustful, easy-going, open-mind, autonomous, resourceful, and happy to be a volunteer to help us in the tasks we need you :)
We hope you find easily you place at our hostel, you "feel" the atmosphere, where you can be helpful and you learn quickly our expectations :)
We wish you enjoy meeting hikers, pilgrims from all around the world, our friends, our children (Margo 12 and Yanis and Malou, our twins of 15) ... and our 2 dogs (Flupke and Ptilou) that would be happy to have a run or a walk with you.
We hope you respect nature and enjoy nature sports (swimming, climbing, walking...) to take profit of the beautiful landscapes near the hostel.
We offer you 1 vegetarian meal a day during your "working days", so we wish you are able to buy and cook your own food during your free time. The hostel is remote in the nature with rare buses driving to cities, we hope you are not afraid to do hitchhiking -it is common to do it in the area- to reach the first city (Puy en Velay) situated at 30 km from the hostel. We rent a flat for you, for our friends who come to visit us and for our employees (the flat is situated at about 1 km from the hostel), we expect that you always keep this place clean and tidy and you respect the other people in the flat and the neighbors.
During your free days, we hope you are independent and you enjoy discovering the area around. We are lucky to have a small trainstation in our village, so it is possible for you to travel in France (the trainstation desserves 2 big cities as Clermont-Ferrand, volcanic area and Nimes, in the South). Thank you !!
