Description
Hello!
We Cecile and Ernest are living in Correze. It is a beautiful countryside area of France. With more animals and trees than people.
We have a one year old baby daughter called Eline.
We have been living here since the beginning of 2020.
We have a big project : building our own house with ecological materials and we have been doing that since the beginning of 2021. We also have a big garden where we have planted fruit trees and other plants.
At the moment we are living 1km away in a rented appartement with 3 bedrooms.
Cecile is working in a local school as a help for students with disabilities.
Ernest is a big fan of basketball and is playing several times a week.
In the past we both have travelled quite a lot.
