Workaway

Many months ago, before this trip had been planned, Preston came across a website called www.workaway.com. The website serves as a hub for people looking for volunteer work on their farms, in their schools, shops, etc.  We found a fantastic little farm in the south of France that we decided to spend some time working and learning how their farm ran. We fed the pigs, chickens, ducks, geese and rabbits each morning. One day I was tasked with fixing and rebuilding an electric fence. Preston fertilized their large garden. I also spent a lot of time working with their daughter to write English and she helped me work on my French. 

The farm was gorgeous and the work was very fun and educational. We had a wonderful time with the family and enjoyed our time at the farm. We are now in a small town further south in France but for now, I'll leave you with a few photos of the gorgeous farmland nestled just near the Pyrenees.
