The Experience
My name is Thierry, I am the new owner of a beautiful property that I intend to turn into a guest house in the South West of France. It is surrounded by a very large garden with many plants and fruit trees, as well as a swimming pool. The house is located between the beautiful villages of Cordes-sur-Ciel, Bruniquel and Saint-Antonin-Noble-Val and close to Vaour, where a music festival takes place every August.

I stayed with Thierry for two weeks and had a wonderful time. The place is surrounded by nature, peaceful and perfect to disconnect. I helped with gardening, cleaning, and small tasks. Thierry is a great host and cook, always kind and respectful. We had interesting conversations and I felt at home from day one. His dog Willow is adorable and playful. It was my first volunteering and I'm very grateful for this beautiful experience! Merci, Thierry! ☺️

I had a great time working at Thierry's place, very relaxing and amazing food. Good to connect with nature and the work isn't too difficult, he has a large property with many projects to help with and a dog that loves to play around with you. Definitely recommend it!

All they said about Thierry's house is true; it is a surreal experience. And if you're looking for your first volunteer, please consider this one. The place is huge, full of life, good weather, and vegetation. He is a great chef, all of the meals are delicious. His dog Willow loves playing, he's the best. You are near a lot of towns and because Thierry is very popular, you will always be meeting new people everywhere. The work sometimes demands more physical activity, but he does a great job explaining. Best month ever, merci Titi! Thierry is incredibly kind and has great conversations.

Thierry's place is a true gem! From the moment I arrived, I felt completely at home. Thierry himself is a fantastic host – kind, respectful, and an all-around wonderful person. Beyond his warm hospitality, he's a remarkably talented musician (especially his harmonica playing!) and a fantastic chef. The company was just as delightful, including the adorable Willow (a beautiful Swiss Shepherd 🐺) and the playful Janice (a sweet cat 😺). As a first-time volunteer, I couldn't have asked for a better experience. The tasks were manageable, and Thierry generously thought me some valuable skills.

Thierry was like a really cool uncle to me. I recommend this experience to others highly, considering the work was varied and interesting but not too difficult, the hours are not too long, he speaks english well, and Thierry is a really good cook. Before volunteers apply, they should know Thierry usually accepts men because the work can be difficult and dangerous for women. We didn't always see eye-to-eye, but I still enjoyed our conversations and I think Thierry is kind and charitable as long as you're not overly sensitive to his sharp, enthusiastic personality)
