The Experience

Bonjour! We’re Manu & Cécile, a friendly couple living in a charming countryside home in the beautiful Tarn region of southern France. Our place is surrounded by peaceful nature, and during summer you can even relax by the swimming pool! 🏊‍♂️🌞 We are looking for people with skills/experience in small jobs (masonry, building wooden furniture, painting, and gardening). We both work, so you will need to be self-sufficient.

It's a shame that this was my first work exchange experience because I don't think it can get much better than this! Manu and Cecile were lovely from the get go and they made it clear what the week ahead was going to look like. The swimming pool was such a blessing, especially after finishing work. The location was perfect to relax and connect with nature without distractions. I would highly recommend this experience!
