A weekend at Chateau de Lalande

Last autumn we drove to Chateau de Lalande in the heart of France, to experienced Chateau life as work-away volunteers, We also did a bit of treasure hunting along the way.

As a big fan of Chateau de Lalande it was lovely to see it through another person's eyes; this was beautifully put together well done xx

[@romantiquefrenchlife6450]

Thank you so much for your comment. I’m a big fan too. So much love and laughter there.

[@gaslitworldf.melissab2897]

I had the same thought.

[@notquiteachateaudiy]

@@romantiquefrenchlife6450 I remember asking you if that was you when Stephanie's vlog went out, and I first found your channel. I wondered where you had been, glad you're back now x

[@jumpinjohosafatz5724]

She is the perfect role model for young girls everywhere... if you want to live like a princess in a castle and you don't ever want to get a job and work to pay your bills, then have mommy and daddy pay for you to go to an elite university so you can meet a guy with money, then marry him, divorce him, keep the house and sell it. Then sleep around with guys that have money and then ask a couple ex boyfriends to help you pay for the cheapest castle you can find. When you move into your crumbling castle and you have no money left to pay for urgent repairs, and you still refuse to get a job to pay the bills, then have your mommy and daddy to move in with you and make them spend their retirement savings to pay for the repairs. Then when you have no money to pay for a cook, a gardener, a decorator or a cleaning lady, then have complete strangers stay for months and work for free... in exchange for free food and a place to sleep, like the African slaves that worked for free and were fed and given a place to sleep. And then when you need more money, have a gay friend create a vlog on KZbin for you and beg complete strangers for charity and send their hard earned dollars every month, to pay your bills. She gets over $41 thousand dollars, in FREE money, every month from complete strangers... that is over $500 thousand dollars a year, as well as a 75% tax deduction from the French government for the restoration costs. The idea that anyone would have the nerve to ask complete strangers to send them half a million dollars every year in charity, so they can swish around in a castle that they could never afford to own, (it is not a listed historical castle of any value, not a stunning castle of any architectural note, and not even a sentimental castle that has been in the family for hundreds of years) is BEYOND disgusting... especially when you consider there are so many children's hospitals and animal shelters desperate for money to save lives. So for all the little girls out there, all you have to do is use rich men, use your parents, use complete strangers and then swish around in your castle, watching everyone else work for free, while you make videos pretending to be a princess.

Many thanks for sharing your trip. As a long time follower of Chateau de LaLande it was fascinating to see it from a different angle. Good luck with your ventures.

Thanks john.

[@jitaamesuluma9730]

its amazing to see the Ians still there , the drive not finished and the planting not in the beds round the fountain , looks a lot better now and i can not wait for them to build the balconies , she is sure a much more beautiful girl now and will be much more so with her ball gown on , lalande i mean

[@romantiquefrenchlife6450]

So true. She just keeps on getting better. Very loved.

[@elliewood4292]

Love the video. Obsessed with your sofa. Gorgeous, the colour, shape, fabric.

[@jelsner5077]

I can't believe you made dinner for all those people with so many dietary restrictions and in such short time. I would have given up in frustration! We rarely give dinners anymore because everyone seems to have some restriction or another. Great job on the painted furniture, too.

[@jelsner5077]

@Alexis M C U Next Thursday!

[@susanpurkis1322]

Thank you, this is so well done, it gives a really good feel of the chateau.

[@romantiquefrenchlife6450]

Thank you Susan. It was such a wonderful experience. Even though we worked really hard and had such a short time there. X

[@NA-ij5jy]

I think they demand too much from “volunteers “.

[@bella151272]

I remember when you were on Stephanie’s channel!

[@reneedunn7660]

Love the different perspective, seeing some things never shown before, and so very happy you enjoyed your stay and were able to help out with the reno!

[@fernandosiena3846]

a pink la lalande peacok dress pattern! Now I remember you from the steph vlog , you did a beautiful paint in the wardrob and cofee table

[@romantiquefrenchlife6450]

I love that dress. When I saw it on Stephs vlog I bought one. The power of advertising! Thanks Fernando.

[@deborrastrom8559]

I have watched Stephanie's Channel..from the beginning, but looking at it all from your perspective is soo Amazing! Thankyou for sharing it, so many things I did not realize. Such detail in many ways, Stephanie is a complete genius. I hope you do get your very own Chateau. You both seem very charming. Blessings.

[@imhappy3093]

What a lovely vlog. It was nice to see a visitor’s perspective of the Chateau. I remember when you did the transformative work on the coffee table.

[@romantiquefrenchlife6450]

haha yes that was fun. Mummy was so thrilled. Shes such a special person

[@parisdrake8802]

So lovely! When you purchase furniture abroad, what is the process and costs of shipping like?

[@PalmBeachPrincess1]

I'm curious, who does the cleaning, such as vacuum, dust, windows, mop, bathrooms ?

[@arifrosli3305]

They have a cleaning lady visiting a couple times a week. Otherwise, the volunteers would do so. And if there's no one, Stephanie would.

[@romantiquefrenchlife6450]

The volunteers do. They have some live in on a permanent basis which have become friends as well. 5 hours of work per day which is reasonable. You get bed and food for that. And staying in a beautiful place.

[@Denika1388]

Neat to see La Land though a volunteers eye! You accomplished much in a short time... you have a beautiful shop, also. Thank you for filming ! 💞😊

[@romantiquefrenchlife6450]

Thank you karen. I wish it wasn’t so far away but we do love New Zealand as well. Catching a plane back to France today. Very excited.

Its so crazy that they had you cook an entire dinner on your late arrival day :(

After all that traveling that seems like it would be quite overwhelming to do upon arrival. You rallied on beautifully!

That was the room I dream of being in at LaLande. It will not happen but it has been my dream since I saw it on the site of Lalande. So comfortable and beautiful. So glad you did gt to stay there and was able to make this trip and visit. Thank you for sharing this trip!

Great video Tracy. How do you get the furniture to New Zealand and how long does it take.Im in South Africa. I'd like to see what your Chateau looks like please.

[@nicoeeek.7181]

I would love to know as well!!

[@romantiquefrenchlife6450]

Hi Amanda, we only have a mini Chateau lol. It's just a townhouse but it is beautiful! Travelling back to France today. There are vlogs on it called 'Romantique French Life ' but we will post more vlogs and you will see it. A LOT of work to do. In reply to your other question. It takes about 6 weeks to get the container sent once it's on the water. It comes in a 20-foot container which Nic and I pack ( and some helpers) ourselves. It's a lot of work but we love our job. Thanks for your questions! xx

[@angiewilliams1386]

I love everything in your shop. Everything you showed I said , " Oh Gosh I love it,...Oh I love that too, Oh I love that "... My dream would be to own a shop just like yours. Absolutely fantastic !!!

they held Stephanie's mother Isabelle's marriage in that chapel and the old family come back to pray there too , it needs work but covid slowed it down , hopefully the restoration will start very soon now the restrictions are lifting a bit

That's horrible to have to drive 🚗 😕 there and then have 2 hrs to cook dinner for so many with different diets and not know even the set up of kitchen Lalande should have had dinner ready for them I'm really shocked at Lalande because I love the show 😀

[@stephm.1012]

Agree. Shocking.

[@hahna77]

They weren't guests. They were volunteers that agreed to the jobs they were given in exchange for staying at Lalande for free for 2 days. She commented above that it was their own fault that they had arrived so late in the day. I agree about all the dietary restrictions being difficult though, no way I could do it. I don't know how Marie or the other cook manages it, day in and day out. Must be exhausting and very challenging. Beautiful job on the furniture restoration by the way.

[@jacquelinereynolds2934]
