Maya, Olivier and their children were very nice to us. They made our stay very flexible and gave us good tips on what we could do in our free time. The work was sometimes strenuous, but they were very careful to ensure that we only did strenuous work for as long as it was good for us. For example, we tended the garden, helped Olivier in his kitchen, dug a trench, cooked and painted window frames. Working hours were usually between 9am and 2pm/3pm. As agreed, we also had days off. We slept in the caravan, which was well equipped and everything was very comfortable.
