The Experience
Hi, we are an Italian couple in our 40s, we fell in love with Provence and we bought a house with a big garden in Arles. We have a spare room with private access and private bathroom. The house needs a lot of upgrades as well as general maintenance.We would like to share our love for this region with people who can help us to improve the house and the garden according to their skills. We are always happy to share food, stories, music and ideas.

I really enjoyed helping Federico with his projects and Worldpacking here in Arles. As my second opportunity, I had no idea what to expect and trusted Federico fully. My stay here has been cozy, as I make my own schedule which does require a healthy proactive mindset. I enjoyed Federico's company and excellent conversation over lunch and dinner as well. My work was done on my own, so if you're not comfortable with being on your own, you may be unhappy here. I was personally overjoyed at the opportunity to help someone else with their home projects. Ciao until next time my new friend, Federico.

Esta experiencia no podría haber sido mejor.Federico y Fulvia son anfitriones excelentes que nos brindaron mucho más que un simple intercambio laboral.Todas las tareas fueron claramente acordadas y respetadas.Esperamos haberles dejado su emprendimiento un poco mejor...teniendo en cuenta que son muy dedicados a tener sus cosas armoniosas,bellas y en perfecto estado.Su calidez italiana se hizo presente en cada momento, incluso nos invitaban la cena para compartir anécdotas, un punto que no estaba incluido en la propuesta, una generosidad extra...Los extrañaremos! También a Balduz!

La casa es un espacio hermoso con gente genial. Los ayudé durante algunos días en la preparación de su emprendimiento, y me han brindado un lugar muy cómodo y agradable, no solo para dormir si no también para compartir con ellos durante esos días. El ambiente de trabajo fue muy bueno y tranquilo. La experiencia también me permitió conocer Arlés que es un lugar sumamente bonito. Espero haber sido de ayuda, muchas gracias!
