    Bonjour,
    Je m'appelle Florence. J'habite dans un endroit paisible proche de Nantes, entouré de champs et de chevaux. J'ai une vie simple et j'aime partager.
    Ce sera un plaisir de partager quelques moments avec vous et de vous faire découvrir notre culture, nos paysages et nos activités.
    Je suis animatrice de jardin et je fabrique des savons. Dans le jardin, nous cultivons une culture biologique et les repas sont essentiellement végétariens.
    Pour faire connaissance, je souhaite vous accueillir au moins 15 jours.
    Et ne vous inquiétez pas, nous pouvons également venir vous chercher à la gare de Nantes si nécessaire.
