Beschreibung
My name is Nikki, I live in Chateaubriant, a rural French market town, with my Mum in a big, old farmhouse in the countryside about a 5 minute drive from the town center. I am a life coach, yoga teacher, and run (with my Mum) a small personal development retreat for yoga and meditation. We offer fully inclusive 4-day breaks in our home for up to 5 guests.
