The Experience

Nice place in the Morvan. A lot of animals. You will help for very différents things. I live in Robin in a beautifull place of seven hectares surrounded by forests and fields in the middle of the natural Park of the Morvan with small woodhouses, gypsy house , sauna, small lake and animals . The place is located closer to Autun, historic city. There is also near there, the bibracte montain, the biggest archéologic center from europe. Welcome

Our experience with the community was good, the place is in the middle of a wonderful forest, is like 20 min from the town and you can get there only by car, when the community goes there. We had a flat for the meals and days off and the dormitory were over it, it has a dry toilet and the shower is with a bucket, he cook for the Lunch and dinnner and give you things for breakfast, there is no WiFi and I recommend to bring everything you need before you arrive. The activities were also cleaning. Thank you for everything.

The month I had the privilege of spending the community was wonderful. It felt like a home away from home and was very difficult to leave. The work was varied and passed enjoyably with the lovely team of people here I had the pleasure of working and living alongside. The variety of animals here was so cool to be able to interact with every day! I had the opportunity to further my french here and the diversity of languages spoken was a great opportunity for everyone to learn. Thank you the community, Julian, Leo and all the volunteers who made this an unforgettable experience. I hope to be back again soon!

The community is a good person and a good chef (ask him for a tarte a la bierre). He's always with a smile in his face. The tasks that we have done, aren't so much hard, and he teached us which ones that we had never done. It was our first experience and we're really happy with its.

We had so much fun staying at the community's place! It was an amazing opportunity to slow down a bit, reconnect with nature and animals and do some hands on work. The work wasn't difficult at all and the community was really reasonable with the hours. It's very basic living which was a nice break after travelling, and it was also nice getting to meet so many other travellers!
