We leave in rural southwest France next to a Buddhist monastery, (plum village, thick nhat hanh) so that could be an experience for who is interested in it. During retreats they have up to 2 days which are open for everyone. There is also lots in the region to explore, which we are happy to facilitate. Furthermore, we are looking forward in getting to know you and have exchanges and there are lots of skill to be acquired on the building site as well.

What else ...
We do not public transit next to our house. However, there are a few train stations in the radius of 20km, where we are happy to drive you to, if you want to visit the region or cities, such as Bordeaux or the Bassin of Arcachon. There is a little convenience store in walking distance, but for bigger groceries, you have to go by car.
