A experiĂȘncia

Bonjour! ☀
Our little family has spent many wonderful years here—building, beautifying, and enjoying this special place. But now, the children have grown and are spreading their wings, each following their own path. That’s life. đŸŒđŸ•Šïž

Atividades & Turnos

đŸ§± Current & Upcoming Projects:
✅ A massive dry stone wall that collapsed 4 years ago during a CĂ©vennes storm has just been fully rebuilt — thanks to many helping hands and drops of sweat. It's part of our deep belief in preserving the legacy of those who built these lands for future generations.
🌊 Our next challenge: adapting the gardens to future water shortages. We're sealing the terraces (bancels) to retain water better—after many trials and errors, we’ve got a system that works! It’s sweaty work, but hey, it’s good for the soul (and body). đŸ’Ș
đŸ”„ We also need help clearing over a hectare of land around the house—removing invasive plants and managing regrowth to prevent fire risks.
