  Beschreibung

  My husband, Colin, and I arrived in the Haute Pyrenees 17 years ago after 3 years of traveling by horse-drawn wagon. We loved the region and the welcome, so we stayed. We have 3 teenage children and a cat. I'm a cultural organizer, I give art workshops, I create treasure hunts where actors play goblins or witches, and I design the costumes. My husband builds with noble materials, wood, stone and earth. We're restoring an isolated barn in a piedmont valley, we're self-sufficient in electricity and water, we have dry toilets, it's our way of militating. I practice aikido and tai chi, and the whole family climbs and spelunks. Our Barousse Valley is charming and very easy to get to, but the truth is I don't want to overstate the advantages, because it's also an area without too much tourism at the moment, and I'd like to preserve it. On the net, the commune of Thebe is known for its deer.
  My husband works outside, so I'm alone for some of the work, and now that the house is comfortable, I'm a bit tirer.
  I'm using a translator for this text because, although my husband is English, I don't speak it well enough to give an effective presentation. However, I understand English well, and I'd like to offer my family an opening onto the world with this welcome and sharing

  Unterkunft

  The housse is at an altitude of 600m, so we have sun until late in the evening (when it's not raining), and a terrace with a magnificent view of the small mountains in the distance. The housse is small, but confortable (even if it's still a bit of a work in progress) . We like read in good armchairs .Of course, children and cat make a mess of everything. The guest bedroom is a small space in the library/workshop.
  As i said before we are self-sufficient in water with reservoir and filters, electricity with solar panels; dry toilets.
  The neighbors are far away, it's quiet,surrounded by woods, birds and deer.
