By staying at the host, I gained a wonderful experience I will never forget. To stay here is to be immersed in nature almost 24/7 while helping Aurélie's & her family's journey into creating a sustainable home in nature! I gained knowledge about traditional building methods and homesteading in such a welcoming & fun environment. Getting to know the local culture was also wonderful. Definitely wish I spoke more French but now I know a couple new phrases!

I truly had the most amazing experience during my time here. Every day was so peaceful, the work was enjoyable, and I got to learn a lot about life in the French countryside. It was such a beautiful experience to connect with nature and spend so much time outside. Aurelie and Samuel were amazing hosts- I loved cooking with them, working with them, and hearing their music every day. I would recommend this to anybody who likes working with their hands, being in nature, and who is interested in sustainable living!

Some of the nicest people I've ever met. They do everything possible to support the volunteers and imerse them in the local culter. I met so many new people and found myself having conversations with people I never thought I would. All thanks to Aurielle and Samuel. The place in person is beautiful and allows you to really relax out in nature while having everything you need. We went on so many adventures and enjoyed a lot of cheese. I encourage anyone reading this to definitely apply and see if your lucky enough to visit this truly life changing place.

Thanks so much guys.
