My time at the home has truly been wonderful. The property itself is very beautiful and surrounded by nature. It has a calm and peaceful atmosphere which allowed me to go into the connection with nature and with myself. Christine has a warm heart and caring soul and it has been a true pleasure to get to know her life and to live at her home. At all times I have felt safe and cared for, which I really appreciated. The work was mostly outside and we went on a lot of hikes which I really enjoyed. I also got to meet a lot of her lovely friends which was really nice. Merci pour tout!

This experience was truly amazing! Christine is a very welcoming and social character which made it easy to feel welcomed and at home. Most of the work we did was done outside and included planting plants, picking wild asparagus, sanding down chairs, helping to carry stuff around etc. If one would need a break for example, it was no problem at all. In addition we would go on hikes together, visit the local markets in the area and visit friends of Christine. We ate lots of amazing homemade food and Christine completely respected my diet of being vegan without any problems.

The home is a beautiful property with plenty to do. This was my first experience as a worldpacker so I was a little nervous, but Christine was very welcoming and opened her home to me. The work was not incredibly laborious, and there was not much we could complete outside some days due to the rainy weather. Christine has the most kind and caring soul, and she truly showed me what it means to live sustainably. She is an amazing host! The only issue we had was our language barrier. So if you come here it would be helpful if you knew basic french or english!

Estoy totalmente agradecida por haber encontrado a Christine en esta experiencia, que me haya permitido ser parte de su vida durante mi estancia, es una maravillosa mujer, bondadosa, siempre cuida de ti y procura hacerte sentir en casa, he aprendido más de lo que imagine, sin duda disfrute cada día a su lado y aprender a vivir a su estilo me hizo conectarme más conmigo misma y sobre todo estar rodeada de naturaleza, mucha paz. Infinitas gracias Christine por el tiempo compartido 💕🌿
