For work on the construction site, remember to wear closed shoes that you don’t mind being used. Don't forget to bring warm clothes for the cold and the rain as well as a warm sleeping bag: the nights can be chilly in the Sarthe. Don't hesitate to bring home specialties, photos, games, music instruments, etc.
