Program Details
Hello,
We welcome volunteers in a spirit of exchange, respect and collaboration. We expect from everyone: Autonomy and initiative: to know how to clean and maintain the spaces without waiting to be asked, as well as your own room. Respect for places and people: our home is not only a place to sleep and eat.
Involvement and motivation: to be a volunteer, helpful, kind and positive in daily life.
In exchange for your help, we offer you accommodation as well as the possibility to prepare meals at the scheduled times.
⚠️ Important: this place is not a hotel nor a holiday destination. Daily tasks (cleaning, tidying, participation in the preparation of meals) are fully part of the experience.
We expect common sense, respect and a responsible attitude. Therefore we expect respectful, smiling and autonomous adults. If you indicate you have experience in cleaning, it must be real:
Know how to make a bed properly, clean under and behind the furniture, and not only around it, and be attentive to details. If this level of requirement does not suit you, please do not apply. It will spare you, as it does for us, a shortened experience.
🌍 Cultural and linguistic exchange 🇫🇷 French immersion: We speak only French. Please play along and fully enjoy this immersion to progress with us.
⚠️ Conflicting behaviours, mood swings or repeated tensions are not accepted. We do not want any "drama". In case of lack of involvement, respect or adaptation, you will be asked to leave our place.

Rules
We are not a hotel. Here, everyone is expected to be autonomous and responsible for themselves. Please clean up and tidy after using shared spaces. If someone would like to prepare a meal or help with other tasks, it should be done on a voluntary basis and shared fairly with the other volunteers. We should not have to ask you to participate or follow the rules. We rely on your common sense, kindness, and respect for our place and for us. Please also respect the schedules, cleaning responsibilities, and the general organization of the place.
