My stay with Vincent was great! I felt very much at home on the beautiful property and he took us to nice local places nearby to visit. The work was very reasonable and fun. Would recommend for sure :)

I spent my month with Vincent alone, normally there's a second Worldpacker present but the person that wanted to come had some issues with her visa. I didn't mind this at all, Vincent made sure I felt welcomed and planned some cool activities in which I could learn a lot more about the French culture I also was able to take the bike to visit nearby castles and got a day off to visit Tours. His house is rather off grid so it takes some time to get to the nearest bigger places but Vincent offered to drive me to some places and I didn't really mind being near nature and a bit off grid at all.

I enjoyed my stay. The place is very quiet, ideal for studying, relaxing etc. There is an amazing pool. I got to se a lot of the local culture, and som of the tourist attractions. Local markets, des guinguette; all the beautiful castles in the area.

This was my first volunteering experience through Worldpackers and I honestly can't picture a better experience than the one I had with Vincent and Sylvain. I felt so much like a part of the family, all the tasks were explained to me clearly, the workload was fine, I had a lot of time for myself but we also spent a lot of time with Vincent and Sylvain visiting festivals, cooking tasty food, talking in French etc. I was living a slow life in the middle of the French countryside aka living the best life.

It was one of my first volunteer experiences abroad and I was a little nervous but I enjoyed it a lot! :) I'm grateful for hosting and this stay. I explored local life in France, know much more about this incredible country and myself too. I send all the best wishes to Vincent and Sylvain 🇫🇷🇵🇱🫶

I had an excellent time volunteering here. Vincent, Sylvain, and Pierre-Yves were very welcoming and generous during my stay, and were keen to show me different aspects of French culture (à la guinguette!) which I really appreciated. The work was pretty straightforward, and in my free time I enjoyed exploring the region on the bike. Some of the castles are absolutely breathtaking. Overall I have enjoyed myself and am grateful for this experience.

⭐ My experience in the guest house Juranvilerrie was simply unforgettable! 🌿 I felt like part of the family from day one. I learned so much about French culture, enjoyed every shared meal (and wine), and loved the daily routines with Una and Oasis 🐶. The real magic was in the exchange — stories, laughs, and kindness. The tasks were simple but meaningful.But the true treasure of this experience was the human connection ✨ 💌 If you're looking for more than just a volunteer opportunity — if you want to live real moments, learn, laugh,and be moved — I wholeheartedly recommend this experience! ❤️

This was my 4th WP experience in France and it was by far the best! You aren not just seen as a non-payed employee, but as a part of the family that helps with the daily chores (that aren't many). Sylvain and Vincent are a very cultivated and traditional french couple that are eager to share with you the true french culture, from excellent food/wine to discussions. You are encouraged and expected to interact with them (and the guests, mostly during breakfast), so this isn't the place if you just want to stay locked inside your nice room or if you aren't interested in french culture.

This experience was really different from other Worldpackers trips I've done in that I was encouraged, and indeed expected, to be a part of the household and the family. Vincent and Sylvain are lovely hosts, and I had a great time with them. I am grateful for their patience with me, despite the slight language barrier! The property is beautiful, the local surroundings are amazing, the dogs are gorgeous, and the people (both hosts and guests) are friendly and welcoming. A big thank you to you all - Vincent, Sylvain, Pierre-Yves, and the pets - for taking care of me and including me so much! :)

When i arrived, i felt an inmediate sense of peace. Vincent was very welcoming. Shows an interest in you and loves to talk about the region. i have seen so much with the help of Vincent. I spend 2 weeks there and the work itself isn't hard. free time in the afternoon so you can spend it to go and visit the castels in the region and bike. Aside from that, i have loved everything about my trip. the only thing i would say that it's good to speak at least a bit of french. since i love to talk was it a bit hard for me to communicatie. but everything turned out ok. im very grateful for my experience
