    Since 2017 I spend my 5 months a year then during the pandemic I decided to settle here.
    I built my little paradise on the edge of the forest and as soon as I can I am in my garden taking care of my various medicinal plants.
    Many projects have been put in place, now we have to sell our productions in ethical places.
    I have a wonderful partner available to put space to develop our productions but not only ours.
    My place of life is only available when I am abroad because when I am there I welcome friends and rent my houses to obtain some income ( iN GENERALY IS AVAILABLE IN MIDDLE OF DECEMBER, JANUARY, FEBRUARY THAN JUNE, JULY, AUGUST MIDDLE OF SEPTEMBER )
