    Description

    I've been living in a very rural, French-speaking area of ​​Switzerland for six months now. I live in a cottage with four rooms and a large garden. I'm interested in permaculture, but I'm just starting out. I work as an accountant, mostly from home. I don't have any pets of my own yet, but the neighbor's cat visits me every day. The surrounding area is predominantly agricultural. The nearest town, Porrentruy, is a 30-minute bus ride away. If you like peace and quiet, I think you'll love it here. The hiking trails through forests and across meadows are endless.

    Ich lebe seit 1/2 Jahr in einer sehr ländlichen, französisch sprechenden Gegend in der Schweiz. Ich bewohne ein Kottage mit 4 Zimmern und grossem Garten. Ich bin interessiert an Permakultur, befinde mich da aber erst in den Anfängen. Ich arbeite als Buchhalterin vorallem von zu Hause aus. Noch habe ich keine eigenen Tiere, die Nachbarskatze kommt aber täglich zu Besuch. Die Umgebung ist von Agrikultur geprägt. Die nächste Stadt, Porrentruy, ist mit dem Bus 30 Min. entfernt. Wenn du Ruhe und Abgeschiedenheit magst, gefällt es dir bei mir bestimmt. Die Wanderwege durch Wälder und über Wiesen sind unendlich.
