English version:
A large house on 8,000 m2 of land with a beautiful pond, in Morbihan. From the house and part of the land, the view of the Vilaine allows to see the boats coming from and going to the small port of Folleux which is nearby. Lots of trees, and with the time more and more flowers, a (very) small vegetable garden... My feeling is that this place radiates peace... and I really love to share it, hoping that anyone staying here can enjoy it!
The name of my house means “the house of the heart” (refering to the pond which has the form of an heart) and when I arrived here I had no desire to change it! I have been living here for 5 years now, with my two greyhounds and my two little cats…, passing friends, and also with each of the workawayers who have come to help… almost from the start!
I am a nearing 65 years old and am a psychotherapist, I mainly work with groups that I receive once a month for a few days. My tools are gestalt, psycho-corporeal and an afrobrazilian spiritual tradition which puts Nature at the center of my work.
I transformed what was just a garage into a group accommodation, I use it for my own groups and rent it to other professionals who wish to organize residential seminars there. Recently I have also begun to organize, once a month, a show and an art exhibition, just to share this place with artists and spectators.
But even if I choose to work in the place where I leave, what I am asking to workawayers is not linked either to my groups nor to the renting of the group place. It is mainly help in my garden... where there is something to do all year round, but what they do depends too on both their tastes and their skills!
My ambition is to give back to this land the richness it previously had, and, as I come from the city, I am still learning and any help is welcome.

Version française :
Une grande maison sur un terrain de 8 000 m2 avec un bel étang, dans le Morbihan. Depuis la maison et une partie du terrain la vue sur la Vilaine permet de voir les bateaux qui vont et viennent vers le petit port de Folleux qui est proche. Beaucoup d'arbres et, avec le temps de plus en plus de fleurs, un (tout) petit potager. Ma sensation est que ce lieu diffuse de la paix... et j’aime beaucoup le partager en espérant que toute personne faisant un séjour ici puisse en profiter !
La traduction du nom de ma maison est : « la maison du cœur » (d'après la forme de l'étang) et quand j’y suis arrivée je n’ai eu aucune envie de changer son nom ! J’y vis depuis 5 ans maintenant, avec mes deux lévriers et mes deux petites chattes…, les amis de passage, et aussi avec chacun des workawayeurs qui se succèdent ici… presque depuis le début !
J’approche les 65 ans et suis psychothérapeute, je travaille essentiellement avec des groupes que je reçois une fois par mois pour quelques jours. Mes outils sont la gestalt, le psychocorporel et une tradition sprituelle afrobrésilienne qui fait que la Nature est au centre de mon travail.
J'ai transformé ce qui n’était qu’un garage en un gite de groupe, je l'utilise pour mes propres groupes et le loue à d'autres thérapeutes qui souhaitent y organiser des séminaires résidentiels. Depuis peu j’y organise aussi, une fois par mois, un spectacle « au chapeau » et une exposition, histoire de partager ce lieu avec artistes et spectateurs.
Mais, même si je travaille à l'endroit où je vis, ce que je demande aux workawayeurs n'est lié en rien ni à mes groupes ni à la location du gite. Il s'agit essentiellement de travailler dans mon jardin… où il y a quelque chose à y faire toute l’année, mais en réalité, ce qu'ils font reste fonction à la fois de leurs goûts et de leurs compétences !
Mon ambition est de redonner à cette terre la richesse qu'elle avait auparavant. Comme je viens de la ville, je suis encore en plein apprentissage et toute aide y est bienvenue.

Objetivos de sostenibilidad de las NU que intenta conseguir este anfitrión
Intercambio cultural y oportunidades de aprendizaje
I speak english and portugese (Brasil), which could help at the begining, learning and practising french could be a possibility for anybody willing to. As my project is still new, participating means learning with its evolution and maybe influence it with once's skills and creativity.
Ayuda
The process of transformation and maintenance of the different spaces of the garden (pond, small wood, vegetables, etc) needs different skills (especialy gardening, craftmanship, etc.), but the more important for me is common sense and wish to participate! As I am working part of my time, I favor autonomy in the way the tasks are done.

Alojamiento
The house is comfortable and quite big, any workawayer ill have his/her own room, we will be sharing all the rest of the space. Sharing food and its preparation is important for me and allows all the exchanges which can occur on these specific times of the day.
Algo más...
Morbihan is a marvellous part of Bretagne with a lot of natural and historical spaces to discover. The sea is not so far from my place and the proximity of the Folleux harbor allows any water sport to be practised. Hiking trails along the river Vilaine and in the woods, nearby cities with historical, artisanal and artistical interests (La Roche Bernard, Vannes, Redon, Nantes...).
My place is not isolated but a car (or a bike, which I can lend) is needed to go anywhere.
My elder dog, Hazul, growls when he smells fear, so if you are not confortable with big dogs it could create a problem at least at the begining, if you like dogs he will crave your peting, as well as Rais who loves to run and play (he is 5 years old but acts still as a teenager). My 2 cats are girls, named Grisette and Domino... They will love to play with anything and purr a soon you beginn to look at them...

I stayed for three week in her lovely house with her lovely two dogs and two cats. The house and the garden are really beautiful and peaceful.
I mainly worked in the garden and in the pond. Nothing too difficult. And in the free time I borrowed Beatrice's bike or her kanu if it wasn't too windy.

- the animals, the garden, the house, the walks, little trips to close towns and beaches and all that my stay there encompassed. Because I had other pre-made travel plans, I only stayed for a little more than two weeks. I would very happily have stayed for longer and am sure to return to visit… read more
