Welcome to our beautiful Provençal estate where we offer a unique Workaway experience!
We are seeking help for various tasks, including refurbishment and maintenance work in and outside the house.
We believe that Workaway is more fun when you can meet other people, so we will be hosting up to 6 people at the same time. We have 4 grown-up children. We are looking forward to having the house radiate with youth and laughter. We offer a cultural exchange and learning opportunities as you will get to know the Provence, share meals with us, and enjoy beautiful evenings with games and activities such as petanque (bocce ball), ping-pong, doing music and board games.

Echange culturel et opportunités d'apprendre
We had our first Workaway experience in the summer of 2023 and we enjoyed meeting young people from different parts of the world. We love the sound of laughter and look forward to sharing meals with you.
We have decided to take up to 5 or 6 Workawayers at the same time.
There will also be a french craftsman present who's english is not really fluent. He will be present during the day in July. He has knowledge in carpentry, plumbing, painting, repairing and fixing everything. You'll enjoy working with him. You will always be guided in the tasks. We see this as a group effort, where we have fun while we work, and we have fun during the breaks.
During your free days, you have the opportunity to visit the surrounding like Marseille, Aix-en-Provence, Cassis, Calanques,
We will also have plenty of time at home for leisure activities such as petanque, ping-pong table and board games. Join us for unforgettable evenings with a beautiful view.

Hébergement
You will be staying in our very comfortable bastide which is in very good condition. You will probably enjoy your own private room or share it with maximum one workawayer.
If you share our table, it is obvious that we offer food. In general, we eat vegetarian and are what we call flexible-vegetarian.
