Retour d'une semaine passΓ©e avec ma soeur aux cotΓ©s de Emma, Freddy et sa famille. C'Γ©tait juste extraordinaire, une expΓ©rience clairement incroyable, Freddy a donnΓ© le meilleur de lui mΓͺme pour nous faire passer un sΓ©jour inoubliable. La nourriture Γ©tait juste exquise chacun des repas, le lieu est coupΓ© du monde, entourΓ© d'animaux, c'est tout ce que l'on recherchait. Les activitΓ©s divers et variΓ©es tout les jours Γ©taient bien diffΓ©rentes chaque journΓ©es. On s'est sentis comme Γ la maison, le coeur lourd de devoir partir. Beau projet autour de l'environnement. Je recommande sans hΓ©sitation.
