Advice needed

Good day!

The story goes like this. I decided, I wish to learn french and the same time earn some money. So I figured the fastest way for me to do that is to buy a plane ticket, arrive in France carrying a backpack and travel around rural areas looking for work face to face. I am fit, have an experience in agricultural work, and somehow I think finding a farm work might be easier than finding work in a big city.

The greatest obstacle (only?) is french language, I don't have it, and english isn't popular in France, especially among farmers.

Have you got a similar experience, tips, advice you can share?
