  Description

  Hello, we live in this beautiful department of Ardèche. With my wife, we live in the countryside, in a pretty stone house that we have restored. We have always had a lot of social contacts, friends and we like to exchange. We like to share our experience as craftsmen (carpenter/joiner) and agricultural (vegetable garden, animals). We are also part of an association that welcomes migrants and we accompany them in their daily procedures. We have 5 children and 11 grandchildren (Belgium, France and Portugal)
