Description
Hello, we are Ronny (German-Italian born in '90) and Julien (French, born in '79). We live in a traditional Brittany house in a small rural village just 400m from a large sandy beach. We have a dog (Labrador mix), a tortoise and fish in a pond. We're very simple people who appreciate peace and quiet. I, Ronny, am very much a homebody, whereas Julien enjoys his garden and walks in the countryside. Maintaining the house takes a lot of time but unfortunately we both work full time so we're unable to manage everything on time which is why we need some help.
