Please message me for current availability 🙂 Hello! How are you? My name is Andy and I've been hosting people for years now with Helpx and other organisations. If you are seeking a true cultural exchange or want to really improve your English to a more advanced level and you are a person with high expectations of yourself or want to be around people who also want to help you, then please read on. I appreciate spending my time with people who like me want to learn more about this strange and wonderful planet we all occupy. I get on with people who are usually self-transparent, with whom I have common interests, who care about others, and like me want to continually learn more about themselves. I have learned a lot from my time hosting people and my journey continues. I am a well-educated person who believes life is a continual learning experience. I like listening to the music of most genres, watching a good movie and watching documentaries. I am interested in matters of technolo...

Hi, my name is Sylvia and I'm Dutch. After having lived for the majority of my life in cities I wanted to roam around with Helpx, so I did. However, I fell in love with the first place where I stayed, many years ago. A very small rural village in Bavaria, Germany, at the Czech border. I rented the huge house and intend to stay here, with my little dog, for the rest of my life. It’s a beautiful hilly area and the forests invite for long walks in which you may spot deer, lynxes, boars and other animals. Public transport ends in Weiden (train) or Lohma (bus), but I have a car, can pick you up and drop you off. Plenty to see within reasonable distance like Nuremberg, Regensburg, Munich, and Prague. Ski and snowboard centre at 7 km distance and lots of others a bit further away. In the holiday season, Christmas markets can be found everywhere. You will have your own room (with WIFI) and a shared bathroom, and you are welcome to the rest of the house too. I‘ll try to cook for you what you...

Sept 4,2024 - the salmon are coming up the river below :) ** Wow, exploring right outside our backdoor along side the Campbell River on Vancouver Island, is a beautiful place to experience Vancouver Island`s great outdoors this fall :) Although we live on a one acre town lot, our back yard is situated on a cliff over looking an accessible beautiful heritage river, with a nature park setting of ferns, douglas firs, maples and alder trees. You can often see deer, raccoons, bears and the silver backs of salmon and Steelhead fish jumping in the ebb and flow of the river’s pools. We have trail access to the river below, where you can enjoy listening to the sing song of many birds, tubing down the river/swimming in the heat of the summer, and trying your hand at casting for Steelhead fish. As well, our neighborhood is the access point to many scenic nature hiking/ walking and biking trails. The ocean photo was taken a couple of miles from my home and all other photos are of my house area or...

Hello Potential Volunteers My name is Paul and it was my dream to change my lifestyle from being an office worker to becoming an alpaca farmer.... here we are 14 years later with 100 alpacas, each individually cherishes with names and unique personalities, plus an assortment of other animals all needing our love :) I have three children: Liam (21), Dylan (9) and Oscar (6), and our 100-acre farm is home to approx.100 alpacas, plus llamas, peacocks, hens, mini pigs, a cat named Sexy, and our farm dog Malta. This year we are expecting 20 'cria' (baby alpacas) and each one will need our help so they can thrive! We need to ensure they get colostrum (filled with antibodies and vital for good health) – have they fed from their mums within the first 24hrs? Are they then drinking enough milk from their mums every day? Are they gaining weight? The well-being of my animals is the most important thing on the farm. Do they have good food and enough water, and the best possible natural environme...

Groenendaal is a beautiful, hilly area of the municipality of Hoeilaart, with beautiful old villas and at a 2-minute walk from the vast Forest de Soignes. There I live, together with my two dogs Saffran and Kira, in a spacious house surrounded by garden and forest land of 1.5 hectares. To maintain that large garden and the forest, I would like the help of someone who is not necessarily specialised in gardening, but who likes some solid outdoor work. I'm thinking, for example, of splitting wood or clearing out rampant plants. For the really heavy work, there is the help of Ramzan, a Chechen who lives in a cottage in the garden with his small family. Indoors, too, there are some clearance tasks on the to-do list. The helper, preferably someone who loves dogs, will have his own room, bathroom and toilet. Through my activities and commitments, he or she will get to know many new people. Groenendaal station is a 10-minute walk away, and the train will take you into the centre of Brussels, t...

I need some help to renovate an old cottage (build in 1880): painting walls and ceilings; working with roof pans and mortar (from inside), help in the garden. Other families in my little village (100 persons) will ask also for help by you. I offer of course accomodation and food - but I am a lousy cook!!. Inside the house is still something like a construction site, so accomodation is a little bit primitiv.

Animal Rescue and Sanctuary and Organic Vegan Farm in Central Costa Rica Hello everyone! What we do: We take care of animals, we grow organic food, we prepare and eat tasty vegan meals, we minimize our impact on the earth, and we enjoy the company of our Costa Rican friends and neighbors. We have run a volunteer program for over 16 years, and have had several hundred people come to work with us! Our farm is primarily an animal rescue, rehab and sanctuary. Our doors are open to animals in need. We currently have five rescue dogs, six goats, a pig, a horse, two cats, and two water buffalos. Some came off the streets, some were abandoned, others were injured and no longer wanted. We adopt out what we can, but most are retired and happy to live their lives on the farm. The 3.5 hectare property is covered with many tropical fruit trees, including water apple, mandarin orange, banana (many varieties), guayaba, guanabana, cas, ciamito, lime, coffee and araza. Depending on the season, w...

Be there on september 28 for traditional french canadian music and dance party ! English will follow. Notre ferme collective est un projet agricole commercial qui a des bases bien ancrées dans la communauté. Nous offrons des paniers en ASC, organisons des évènements rassembleurs et nous impliquons dans d'autres projets à portés social et éducationnelle. Choisir de passer du temps à la coop, c'est découvrir une région hors des circuits touristiques qui fera de votre séjour une expérience unique. C'est découvrir le Québec profond et francophone, et la myriades de petits villages abitibiens. La rivière qui borde la terre est parfaite pour se baigner ou pour une expédition en canot. Avis aux citadins, il y a des mouches comme partout en campagne, mais contrairement à la légende populaire pas plus qu'ailleurs. Venez avec des vêtements chauds, bien que nos journées peuvent être chaudes, nos nuits sont souvent fraîches même en été. Les derniers gels peuvent être à la mi-juin. L'ouvrage a eff...

We live on an old estate with 12 rescue equines (donkeys, ponies and horses), 134 rescued pigs, a goat and some sheep. The animals thrive in a calm environment; therefore we are looking for positive attitudes, happy to muck in and get through the manual labour, as well as patience and thoughtfulness with animals who need time to come around. This is incredibly rewarding if you enjoy tuning in to the little daily achievements and rehabilitation of the animals. For example, each person is matched with one animal a week to spend a few moments of one-on-one quality time with. This may be an animal who has recently lost their companion, or someone who needs company to gain trust. This helps both the animal and the team to do daily treatments such as hoof trimming, eye cleaning etc. A little heads up before you read on! Here is not a suitable place to come if you have problems with energy levels, lethargy or migraines from exertion. If you struggle with your mental health please consider t...

Normally I have need of someone to help with gardening, and also seeing to rescue dogs many other jobs besides. I garden organically and only use my own compost. I have decided to paint the outside of the house but it needs to be cleaned before it can be painted and there's plants growing over the front of the house which will need cutting down first Are you good at DIY? Do you like dogs and the outdoor life. I take in rescue dogs and then rehome when they are ready, you definitely need to like animals. At the moment I'm in need of general help and tidying mostly outside - there is a lot of weeding to do and cutting back nettles and brambles. I can probably lend you old clothes for this so that you don't have to ruin your own good ones. I am a strictly non smoking place both inside and out. Smokers including those who vape, will be asked to leave. I have had several helpers here who think it is not a problem to vape or smoke if they are in a different room or outside bu...

Welcome to our page. Yes, we are looking for you if you are between the ages of 16 to 30 We are a small community of friends working towards a better life in a beautiful part of rural Devon, in the Tamar River Valley Estuary where you will make friends for life. In exchange for your friendship while you are staying here we will endeavour to teach you new skills that will carry you through life. A small farm in a beautiful location! Our farm and home probably date back to pre 1660's, with many additions since. It has been left to go wild for the last 40 years. The river has otters, seals, beavers, salmon, sea trout, and sea bass. With buzzards and owls overhead. There are deer in the surrounding woodland. The aim for our farm is to give the land back to nature and at the same time create an organic food source that we can freely share with local flora and fauna. In this way, there will be enough for us and enough for the animals around us. To do this we have created a sustainable way...

I am approx 30 mins drive South of Cairns. Do you like to prepare healthy plant based meals for groups of people? I need a health conscious person to run the kitchen and make delicious,nutritious meals, whilst the rest of us are out in the garden or shed. I am at a camp, not a regular house, my guests often sleep in my retired hilux camper with double bed. Some guests ask to stay in tents, Many have stayed in their campers, rooftop tents and swags too. My favourite guests get introduced to my kitchen, after seeing all the appliances and supplies, adjust the camp kitchen to their liking and take over. This is when I can get much more design work done and planning around the property. Too many times, I get over hungry with no food ready, so I often eat quick naughty fast foods. So yeah, if you are a plant based chef wannabe, I would like to hear from you. You would be great help in my efforts to create an Organic Off Grid, Self Sufficient Green Haven. Once I get a reliable cook, I...

Help needed in peaceful rural location in Bulgaria Hello, I am British and live in rural Bulgaria with my 5 dogs and 2 cats. My home is in a very quiet area with the property located on the edge of the village. The area is great for those who enjoy a laid back lifestyle with nature, stunning views and peace and quiet, perfect for walking or hiking. There are limited facilities in the village so not much opportunity for partying or socialising so perfect if you prefer quiet evenings at home. The local town is 15 minutes away with all facilities you'd expect. Not too far away is the beautiful black sea coast and also borders to Turkey and Greece. You can get a bus locally to most places in Bulgaria and beyond, the capital Sofia is 4 hours away and well worth a visit. Bulgaria is steeped in history and there are museums, galleries, archeological sites and many places of interest throughout the country. Throughout the year there are festivals, cultural events and open air concerts. You cou...

I run private English school for children aged between 10 and 19 years old in a small city in West Sumatra. My goal as the principal of the school is to provide youth from my region with the English skills required to communicate better in the modern world, and therefore provide them with better opportunities in their lives. I would like to welcome any fluent English speakers under the age of thirty to come assist my teachers in the classroom. You would help immensely by having simple conversations with the students and give them a real English speaking experience inside or outside the classroom. All the students are very welcoming and curious about my visitors and I am certain that you will have a great experience while interacting with them. You can expect answering all their curious questions, pose for pictures and be invited for lunches, snacks and dinners. Classes in my school run from 2pm to 6pm and mostly consist of two lessons/classrooms per day. I would also like to invite...

Notre ferme de moyenne montagne (800 m d'altitude) près de Grenoble est située dans le parc régional du Vercors dans les Alpes. Notre activité principale est l'élevage de chevaux sur 120ha plus les alpages . Nous produisons une race montagnarde rustique, le Mérens, et des poneys. Nous disposons de 2 alpages entre 1 300 m et 2 000 m d'altitude que nous visitons souvent pour le plaisir de la randonnée autant que pour surveiller les chevaux qu'on y monte. Nous avons mis en place un système de protection contre les loups pour les quelques brebis qui ne montent plus en alpage. Avec 100 chevaux à nourrir, à débourrer pour la selle ou l'attelage, à dresser pour la randonnée en extérieur et à préparer pour des présentations ou des expos , les cavaliers sont les bienvenus pour participer à nos activités à leur rythme et en gérant leur temps de "travail".. Nos chevaux sont élevés en plein air(pas de box à nettoyer) Ils sont débourrés et montés sans mors en licol plat matelassé et sidepull lâch...

*Update - Spring-August.November We currently have a lot of projects on at the moment so there is a wide selection of tasks to choose from. **Please note- We prefer to welcome helpers straight away-e.g available now or in the next few days. taking bookings for weeks or months ahead has never worked for us as we buy the extra food and supplies and too many people have cancelled because plans change when travelling. Work includes gardening projects, feeding chickens, mowing, brush cutting, household chores and upgrading the chicken pen and organising work spaces. **Accommodation is either in a detached house in the forest (up a steep hill from the main house) There are two separate bedrooms up there and our 17-year-old son sleeps in one bedroom and you will have the other bedroom. Or you can sleep in your own van or we have tents (and we have plenty of comfortable mattresses and bedding so no worries about being comfortable). We generally appreciate help in the gardens and arou...

Hello, I'm traveling by inland river barge through Europe, especially France, Belgium and Holland. The barge is an original Dutch built peniche and made for the old French channels. I still transport cargo and I am the third generation of a shipper family from both sides of my parents. I live and work alone on the barge sometimes accompanied by my girlfriend. There is a simple separate -little- room (see photo..) for guests in the front of the barge which is not suite. (no sanitation, but there is a chemical toilet and lavabo) Also a heating system, fridge/freezer and micro-wave. The work to do depends on the person, maybe some cleaning, housekeeping work, shopping and cooking??? And serving the aperitif of the skipper of course at 18h00 exactly..LOL. My intention is to make contact with other people and have an exchange of cultures. Kind regards, William * * * * * * * * * * * * Plans for 2024 : ** I need from about 30 august to 15 september.

A room is available for your homestay. Because of the helps I would like to ask to you, those who have enough experience/knowledge of handling house holding chores and cooking are welcome. No problem if you cannot cook Japanese dishes. Vegetarian is welcome only from summer to autumn. It's easy to talk about next step of your homestay if how long from when, how you can help, what you want to do during homestay in addition to help works are written in your request. I, 66 years old male, not vaccinated for COVID-19, have a small private organic vegetable garden. I am happy if someone can help me to maintain vegetable garden and household chores including cooking. I also can enjoy helping my guest to learn Japanese language. We can visit at sightseeing places/aesthetic landscape when we have free time. At the same time, I`m interested to hear your stories about helpx and learn foreign languages as well as yoga and massage. My house has natural hot spring so that you are free to e...

Looking for fun and helpful individuals interested in visiting Toronto. Looking for company and some general help around the house. You will do around 3 hours each day of work - without my needing to chase after you. Might also be interested in any special skills you have. You will be sleeping in my guest room. I live up by Lansdowne station, about a 15 min walk from the station and its very easy to go downtown where there is a lot to do. I generally prefer that you are back by late evening so we can hang out. You can stay out late occasionally, with a general weekday curfew of 1030pm and weekend curfew of 1130pm. This is not the place to stay if you are hoping to be out clubbing etc regularly. Offering space to stay only. There's internet and I can show you around the University and probably a few other places depending on my schedule. You need to have appropriate travel / health insurance and will need to send me ID. You'd stay for around 2 weeks (we can talk about longer after...

Hello everybody, Come discover a small place of greenery, nice and welcoming, situated at the heart of “plateau de Millevaches” in a quiet little village. We welcome you to share our daily life, our simplicity of life and our good mood! I'm a single mother with two kind children (Leonie 20 years old and Hilarion 14 years old). Lots of activities to perform: wood (splitting), gardening, do-it-yourself (6 hours of daily work and 2 days off a week). We’ll also share our meals (family regional cooking, possibility to cook vegetarian, vegan if you show us!). You will sleep in a separate room. Just so you know, we are located 10 km from the nearest city (Meymac or Ussel). It`s not a problem if you don`t speak French: I don't speak English very well but rest assured, we will be able to communicate easily.

Please message me for current availability 🙂 Hello! How are you? My name is Andy and I've been hosting people for years now with Helpx and other organisations. If you are seeking a true cultural exchange or want to really improve your English to a more advanced level and you are a person with high expectations of yourself or want to be around people who also want to help you, then please read on. I appreciate spending my time with people who like me want to learn more about this strange and wonderful planet we all occupy. I get on with people who are usually self-transparent, with whom I have common interests, who care about others, and like me want to continually learn more about themselves. I have learned a lot from my time hosting people and my journey continues. I am a well-educated person who believes life is a continual learning experience. I like listening to the music of most genres, watching a good movie and watching documentaries. I am interested in matters of technolo...

Hi, my name is Sylvia and I'm Dutch. After having lived for the majority of my life in cities I wanted to roam around with Helpx, so I did. However, I fell in love with the first place where I stayed, many years ago. A very small rural village in Bavaria, Germany, at the Czech border. I rented the huge house and intend to stay here, with my little dog, for the rest of my life. It’s a beautiful hilly area and the forests invite for long walks in which you may spot deer, lynxes, boars and other animals. Public transport ends in Weiden (train) or Lohma (bus), but I have a car, can pick you up and drop you off. Plenty to see within reasonable distance like Nuremberg, Regensburg, Munich, and Prague. Ski and snowboard centre at 7 km distance and lots of others a bit further away. In the holiday season, Christmas markets can be found everywhere. You will have your own room (with WIFI) and a shared bathroom, and you are welcome to the rest of the house too. I‘ll try to cook for you what you...

Sept 4,2024 - the salmon are coming up the river below :) ** Wow, exploring right outside our backdoor along side the Campbell River on Vancouver Island, is a beautiful place to experience Vancouver Island`s great outdoors this fall :) Although we live on a one acre town lot, our back yard is situated on a cliff over looking an accessible beautiful heritage river, with a nature park setting of ferns, douglas firs, maples and alder trees. You can often see deer, raccoons, bears and the silver backs of salmon and Steelhead fish jumping in the ebb and flow of the river’s pools. We have trail access to the river below, where you can enjoy listening to the sing song of many birds, tubing down the river/swimming in the heat of the summer, and trying your hand at casting for Steelhead fish. As well, our neighborhood is the access point to many scenic nature hiking/ walking and biking trails. The ocean photo was taken a couple of miles from my home and all other photos are of my house area or...

Hello Potential Volunteers My name is Paul and it was my dream to change my lifestyle from being an office worker to becoming an alpaca farmer.... here we are 14 years later with 100 alpacas, each individually cherishes with names and unique personalities, plus an assortment of other animals all needing our love :) I have three children: Liam (21), Dylan (9) and Oscar (6), and our 100-acre farm is home to approx.100 alpacas, plus llamas, peacocks, hens, mini pigs, a cat named Sexy, and our farm dog Malta. This year we are expecting 20 'cria' (baby alpacas) and each one will need our help so they can thrive! We need to ensure they get colostrum (filled with antibodies and vital for good health) – have they fed from their mums within the first 24hrs? Are they then drinking enough milk from their mums every day? Are they gaining weight? The well-being of my animals is the most important thing on the farm.

Groenendaal is a beautiful, hilly area of the municipality of Hoeilaart, with beautiful old villas and at a 2-minute walk from the vast Forest de Soignes. There I live, together with my two dogs Saffran and Kira, in a spacious house surrounded by garden and forest land of 1.5 hectares. To maintain that large garden and the forest, I would like the help of someone who is not necessarily specialised in gardening, but who likes some solid outdoor work. I'm thinking, for example, of splitting wood or clearing out rampant plants. For the really heavy work, there is the help of Ramzan, a Chechen who lives in a cottage in the garden with his small family. Indoors, too, there are some clearance tasks on the to-do list. The helper, preferably someone who loves dogs, will have his own room, bathroom and toilet. Through my activities and commitments, he or she will get to know many new people. Groenendaal station is a 10-minute walk away, and the train will take you into the centre of Brussels, t...

I need some help to renovate an old cottage (build in 1880): painting walls and ceilings; working with roof pans and mortar (from inside), help in the garden. Other families in my little village (100 persons) will ask also for help by you. I offer of course accomodation and food - but I am a lousy cook!!. Inside the house is still something like a construction site, so accomodation is a little bit primitiv.

Animal Rescue and Sanctuary and Organic Vegan Farm in Central Costa Rica Hello everyone! What we do: We take care of animals, we grow organic food, we prepare and eat tasty vegan meals, we minimize our impact on the earth, and we enjoy the company of our Costa Rican friends and neighbors. We have run a volunteer program for over 16 years, and have had several hundred people come to work with us! Our farm is primarily an animal rescue, rehab and sanctuary. Our doors are open to animals in need. We currently have five rescue dogs, six goats, a pig, a horse, two cats, and two water buffalos. Some came off the streets, some were abandoned, others were injured and no longer wanted. We adopt out what we can, but most are retired and happy to live their lives on the farm. The 3.5 hectare property is covered with many tropical fruit trees, including water apple, mandarin orange, banana (many varieties), guayaba, guanabana, cas, ciamito, lime, coffee and araza. Depending on the season, w...

Nous offrons des paniers en ASC, organisons des évènements rassembleurs et nous impliquons dans d'autres projets à portés social et éducationnelle.

We live on an old estate with 12 rescue equines (donkeys, ponies and horses), 134 rescued pigs, a goat and some sheep. The animals thrive in a calm environment; therefore we are looking for positive attitudes, happy to muck in and get through the manual labour, as well as patience and thoughtfulness with animals who need time to come around. This is incredibly rewarding if you enjoy tuning in to the little daily achievements and rehabilitation of the animals. For example, each person is matched with one animal a week to spend a few moments of one-on-one quality time with. This may be an animal who has recently lost their companion, or someone who needs company to gain trust. This helps both the animal and the team to do daily treatments such as hoof trimming, eye cleaning etc. A little heads up before you read on! Here is not a suitable place to come if you have problems with energy levels, lethargy or migraines from exertion. If you struggle with your mental health please consider t...

Normally I have need of someone to help with gardening, and also seeing to rescue dogs many other jobs besides. I garden organically and only use my own compost. I have decided to paint the outside of the house but it needs to be cleaned before it can be painted and there's plants growing over the front of the house which will need cutting down first Are you good at DIY? Do you like dogs and the outdoor life. I take in rescue dogs and then rehome when they are ready, you definitely need to like animals. At the moment I'm in need of general help and tidying mostly outside - there is a lot of weeding to do and cutting back nettles and brambles. I can probably lend you old clothes for this so that you don't have to ruin your own good ones. I am a strictly non smoking place both inside and out. Smokers including those who vape, will be asked to leave. I have had several helpers here who think it is not a problem to vape or smoke if they are in a different room or outside bu...

Welcome to our page. Yes, we are looking for you if you are between the ages of 16 to 30 We are a small community of friends working towards a better life in a beautiful part of rural Devon, in the Tamar River Valley Estuary where you will make friends for life. In exchange for your friendship while you are staying here we will endeavour to teach you new skills that will carry you through life. A small farm in a beautiful location! Our farm and home probably date back to pre 1660's, with many additions since. It has been left to go wild for the last 40 years. The river has otters, seals, beavers, salmon, sea trout, and sea bass. With buzzards and owls overhead. There are deer in the surrounding woodland. The aim for our farm is to give the land back to nature and at the same time create an organic food source that we can freely share with local flora and fauna. In this way, there will be enough for us and enough for the animals around us. To do this we have created a sustainable way...

I am approx 30 mins drive South of Cairns. Do you like to prepare healthy plant based meals for groups of people? I need a health conscious person to run the kitchen and make delicious,nutritious meals, whilst the rest of us are out in the garden or shed. I am at a camp, not a regular house, my guests often sleep in my retired hilux camper with double bed. Some guests ask to stay in tents, Many have stayed in their campers, rooftop tents and swags too. My favourite guests get introduced to my kitchen, after seeing all the appliances and supplies, adjust the camp kitchen to their liking and take over. This is when I can get much more design work done and planning around the property. Too many times, I get over hungry with no food ready, so I often eat quick naughty fast foods. So yeah, if you are a plant based chef wannabe, I would like to hear from you. You would be great help in my efforts to create an Organic Off Grid, Self Sufficient Green Haven. Once I get a reliable cook, I...

Help needed in peaceful rural location in Bulgaria Hello, I am British and live in rural Bulgaria with my 5 dogs and 2 cats. My home is in a very quiet area with the property located on the edge of the village. The area is great for those who enjoy a laid back lifestyle with nature, stunning views and peace and quiet, perfect for walking or hiking. There are limited facilities in the village so not much opportunity for partying or socialising so perfect if you prefer quiet evenings at home. The local town is 15 minutes away with all facilities you'd expect. Not too far away is the beautiful black sea coast and also borders to Turkey and Greece. You can get a bus locally to most places in Bulgaria and beyond, the capital Sofia is 4 hours away and well worth a visit. Bulgaria is steeped in history and there are museums, galleries, archeological sites and many places of interest throughout the country. Throughout the year there are festivals, cultural events and open air concerts. You cou...

I run private English school for children aged between 10 and 19 years old in a small city in West Sumatra. My goal as the principal of the school is to provide youth from my region with the English skills required to communicate better in the modern world, and therefore provide them with better opportunities in their lives. I would like to welcome any fluent English speakers under the age of thirty to come assist my teachers in the classroom. You would help immensely by having simple conversations with the students and give them a real English speaking experience inside or outside the classroom. All the students are very welcoming and curious about my visitors and I am certain that you will have a great experience while interacting with them. You can expect answering all their curious questions, pose for pictures and be invited for lunches, snacks and dinners. Classes in my school run from 2pm to 6pm and mostly consist of two lessons/classrooms per day. I would also like to invite...

Notre ferme de moyenne montagne (800 m d'altitude) près de Grenoble est située dans le parc régional du Vercors dans les Alpes. Notre activité principale est l'élevage de chevaux sur 120ha plus les alpages . Nous produisons une race montagnarde rustique, le Mérens, et des poneys. Nous disposons de 2 alpages entre 1 300 m et 2 000 m d'altitude que nous visitons souvent pour le plaisir de la randonnée autant que pour surveiller les chevaux qu'on y monte. Nous avons mis en place un système de protection contre les loups pour les quelques brebis qui ne montent plus en alpage. Avec 100 chevaux à nourrir, à débourrer pour la selle ou l'attelage, à dresser pour la randonnée en extérieur et à préparer pour des présentations ou des expos , les cavaliers sont les bienvenus pour participer à nos activités à leur rythme et en gérant leur temps de "travail".. Nos chevaux sont élevés en plein air(pas de box à nettoyer) Ils sont débourrés et montés sans mors en licol plat matelassé et sidepull lâch...

*Update - Spring-August.November We currently have a lot of projects on at the moment so there is a wide selection of tasks to choose from. **Please note- We prefer to welcome helpers straight away-e.g available now or in the next few days. taking bookings for weeks or months ahead has never worked for us as we buy the extra food and supplies and too many people have cancelled because plans change when travelling. Work includes gardening projects, feeding chickens, mowing, brush cutting, household chores and upgrading the chicken pen and organising work spaces. **Accommodation is either in a detached house in the forest (up a steep hill from the main house) There are two separate bedrooms up there and our 17-year-old son sleeps in one bedroom and you will have the other bedroom. Or you can sleep in your own van or we have tents (and we have plenty of comfortable mattresses and bedding so no worries about being comfortable). We generally appreciate help in the gardens and arou...

Hello, I'm traveling by inland river barge through Europe, especially France, Belgium and Holland. The barge is an original Dutch built peniche and made for the old French channels. I still transport cargo and I am the third generation of a shipper family from both sides of my parents. I live and work alone on the barge sometimes accompanied by my girlfriend. There is a simple separate -little- room (see photo..) for guests in the front of the barge which is not suite. (no sanitation, but there is a chemical toilet and lavabo) Also a heating system, fridge/freezer and micro-wave. The work to do depends on the person, maybe some cleaning, housekeeping work, shopping and cooking??? And serving the aperitif of the skipper of course at 18h00 exactly..LOL. My intention is to make contact with other people and have an exchange of cultures. Kind regards, William * * * * * * * * * * * * Plans for 2024 : ** I need from about 30 august to 15 september. My girl-friend have to take car...

A room is available for your homestay. Because of the helps I would like to ask to you, those who have enough experience/knowledge of handling house holding chores and cooking are welcome. No problem if you cannot cook Japanese dishes. Vegetarian is welcome only from summer to autumn. It's easy to talk about next step of your homestay if how long from when, how you can help, what you want to do during homestay in addition to help works are written in your request. I, 66 years old male, not vaccinated for COVID-19, have a small private organic vegetable garden. I am happy if someone can help me to maintain vegetable garden and household chores including cooking. I also can enjoy helping my guest to learn Japanese language. We can visit at sightseeing places/aesthetic landscape when we have free time. At the same time, I`m interested to hear your stories about helpx and learn foreign languages as well as yoga and massage. My house has natural hot spring so that you are free to e...

Looking for fun and helpful individuals interested in visiting Toronto. Looking for company and some general help around the house. You will do around 3 hours each day of work - without my needing to chase after you. Might also be interested in any special skills you have. You will be sleeping in my guest room. I live up by Lansdowne station, about a 15 min walk from the station and its very easy to go downtown where there is a lot to do. I generally prefer that you are back by late evening so we can hang out. You can stay out late occasionally, with a general weekday curfew of 1030pm and weekend curfew of 1130pm. This is not the place to stay if you are hoping to be out clubbing etc regularly. Offering space to stay only. There's internet and I can show you around the University and probably a few other places depending on my schedule. You need to have appropriate travel / health insurance and will need to send me ID. You'd stay for around 2 weeks (we can talk about longer after...

Hello everybody, Come discover a small place of greenery, nice and welcoming, situated at the heart of “plateau de Millevaches” in a quiet little village. We welcome you to share our daily life, our simplicity of life and our good mood! I'm a single mother with two kind children (Leonie 20 years old and Hilarion 14 years old). Lots of activities to perform: wood (splitting), gardening, do-it-yourself (6 hours of daily work and 2 days off a week). We’ll also share our meals (family regional cooking, possibility to cook vegetarian, vegan if you show us!). You will sleep in a separate room. Just so you know, we are located 10 km from the nearest city (Meymac or Ussel). It`s not a problem if you don`t speak French: I don't speak English very well but rest assured, we will be able to communicate easily.
