Program Details

I'm looking for someone who can follow instructions in English. The tasks are not very demanding, but it is hands-on. I can pick you up from Bedarieux train station, not anywhere else. But it is easy to get the local bus from Montpellier to my village.

It is very important that you understand that I am not obliged to provide 3 meals per day, but if I cook supper in the evening, then, of course, we will eat together. I do not always feel like cooking and sometimes I will be out with friends at mealtimes, so you need to be able to provide for yourself. You also need to be flexible about the program - sometimes it is a harder task than others - please speak to me if you are unhappy about something. I am very understanding.
PLEASE NOTE - I AM LIMITING THE STAY TO TWO WEEKS MAXIMUM.

Activities & Shift

Your shift will start at 9 a.m and continue until 3, with a lunch break at 1 p.m. Or you can start earlier and finish earlier. You must help 5 hours a day minimum, preferably mornings and afternoons with an hour lunch break. I will need you to help me do breakfast over the weekends if there are guests, otherwise, your weekends are your own.

Rules

You are expected to tidy up after yourself.
