Bon jour!
After a wonderful seven days in Provence with Mr. and Mrs. Whyte they drove us three hours into the French countryside to our new home: La Fontenille in Ventenac-en-Minervois. For ten days we'll be helping in the kitchen, painting, cleaning, and random tasks (pictured: installing rooftop solar panels), for 4 hours a day (except weekends) in exchange for a lovely room at the chateaux, three wholesome meals a day, and, so far, all the wine we can drink. Plus great company. Sundara and David are generous, interesting hosts who prize good music, and work hard keep their home and garden beautiful.
