I'm Mo and I'm looking for travellers who'd be interested in helping on a small alpaca farm. You will need to be really comfortable with animals as there are 37 alpacas and 3 dogs and 2 cats who are also part of the family. In addition to the daily work with the alpacas, there is always outdoor work to do on the farm. I work with the alpaca fibre and I enjoy teaching skills. English is the language of the farm and I speak quite good French.

Mo & Stuart are wonderful and very interesting people who were a pleasure to spend my time with! They are kind & knowledgeable about local culture and really, really want you to experience cool new stuff as much as possible, whether that's odd jobs, cycling the countryside, going to festivals, meeting locals, or of course, the alpacas!! Food was great and the room was private and comfortable. The farm and village are peaceful and I would recommend to anyone who wants to experience a slower, more intentional way of living!!

It was my first volunteering experience, and it was absolutely amazing! I learned so many new things, got to hear so many interesting stories, and experienced the French way of life. The work wasn't hard, and the working hours were just the right amount, with relaxing tea breaks included. The food was delicious, and the room was spacious and really nice. I would definitely recommend this experience!!

If you’re looking for a third set of grandparents, look no further! Mo and Stuart are kind, intelligent, &supportive people with countless inspiring stories to share (seriously, the BBC needs to get on that)! They deeply engrained the value of always looking forward & striving to learn something new everyday. I loved how involved they were in the community of Trêve &learned a lot about rural French culture. The work was straightforward, the food was delicious (endless apple juice btw!), &obviously the animals!! I already miss the dogs & making sure Reefer gets his uninterrupted snack time. <3

Staying with Mo and Stuart is less of a volunteering 'job', and more of an induction into a family, and the ways of rural French life. They are truly excellent hosts, as well as just people, who provide all the assistance, delicious food, and laughter that you need (plus a little extra)! Undertaking construction projects and the animal tasks taught me a whole host of new skills I had not yet had the chance to explore, and each day allowed me to recenter nature and pure joy into my life. The alpacas are also such funny characters, and you definitely grow to adore each one (Hello to The Dude!)

I’m writing with tears in my eyes (happy tears) I had the most beautiful experience! I have no words to describe my happiness and how grateful I am! Mo and Stuart are wonderful human beings! They are so funny and knowledgeable. I LEARNED SO MANY THINGS.From construction to history and CULTURE.
This is more than a volunteering experience, this is a beautiful home with many family members! Because every alpaca doggie and kitty is part of this big family! If you come you will notice how every alpaca is different and they have unique personalities! I would definitely come back, I miss everyone!
