The Experience

Je suis artisan feutrière et je crée des objets de décoration et des accessoires en feutre de laine locale. La fabrication du feutre est un processus aussi passionnant qu’exigeant physiquement, j’aurais besoin d’un coup de main, notamment pour réaliser des galets en feutre. Il y a toujours plein de petits travaux à faire à la maison : fixer des étagères, porter et monter des meubles… L’idée, c’est de faire tout ça ensemble, dans la bonne humeur!

Birgit is a very sweet and welcoming person. My days were truly lovely. The city, although small, is charming and has very peaceful atmosphere. The house is very confortable: my room was super spacious, the kitchen was beautiful, and the neighborhood was very quiet, all of which made my stay even more pleasant. As for the work, it was relaxed and varied. Birgit offers different tasks, such as helping with the website, working at the shop, or doing improvements around the house. She's very flexible and open to adjusting the tasks based on what you enjoy doing. A great spot to visit. ✨

Hi! It was such a nice travel, Birgit was allways willing to answer all my quedtions about french language and tookme to visit beautiful places near Nyons. The woking hours were some bricolage, and making art with felt. You have a entire big kitchen for cook, a bike, and a room for you during the week and to share with Swan (Birgit son, that is pretty nice). I recomend it if you are interested in lesrning french and if you are lloking for a peacefull time in a quiet place. Meeting the other volunteer was amazing, I was very lucky to meet Eva, such a lovely person.

Nyons is such a nice village; there's hiking, huge markets, river jumping, pools and culture everywhere. The host is lovely and speaks multiple languages (French, English, German, some Spanish/ Portuguese) and she is very flexible with the work. She is very open to accommodating free time for you. One day she even drove another volunteer and I part of the way to Avignon (A palace city I recommend visiting). You probably will be sleeping on a mattress on the floor. The work is helping to make decorations out of local wool. It is relaxing and easy to learn: no artistic experience required.

I really enjoyed the experience, the city is amazing and the people are super welcoming. The location is perfect, close to pretty much all the Drôme sights in Nyons. Hostess Birgit and her son Swan were really nice to me, I felt really comfortable during my stay. Birgit was very attentive to teaching, as well as showing a great desire to learn more about the culture of Brazil. They were unique moments, I certainly learned a lot on this trip, thank you! 🇧🇷❤️🇫🇷
