Travel information

We are currently

Activities we are interested in:

All booked up until June 2026. Looking for paid summer positions in France as Auto-entrepeneurs.

Description

We are Jess(33) and Dan(38), a British couple living in France.

We both have right to remain France and are both registered as self employed (auto-entrepeneurs). Therefore we are able to invoice for work done and do not require work contracts.

We both have driving licences and own our own vehicle. We have social security and french bank accounts. We have been taking language classes for several years, Jess is certified B2.

We plan to see more of France, and are looking for seasonal roles across the country to discover new places. We had a very rewarding experience doing this in New Zealand with several hosts.

Since 2019 we have worked in property management in various resorts in the French Alps. We have worked together as an efficient and independent team providing services including: cleaning, laundry, catering and gardening.

Other previous work experience include campsite work, food manufacturing, sales as well as kitchen and front of house roles in restaurants and cafés in France, UK and New Zealand. We are quick learners and bring enthusiasm and professionalism to a wide variety of tasks..

We are particularly happy working independently, especially together. However we both have leadership experience and are happy to work as part of a team. We prefer to be self contained where accommodation is available, if necessary we have a converted small van in which we're happy to sleep when appropriate.

We are passionate about cooking and eating well, we love being outdoors and generally live in a simple way. Our goal is to get to know new areas, people and cultures while learning new skills.

We'd love to hear from anybody to discuss the availability you may have, please don't hesitate to get in contact.

Many thanks,

Jess and Dan
