  Description

  HELLO ! I am from Avignon, I've travelled, and keep traveling a lot, but I decided to settle here because of the cultural life and the nearbynature. From my house, you can go for a tour on my two bikes along the Rhône (the via Rhona is quite famous) walking in the beautifull City of the Popes, discovering the old architecture, go to the theatre, catch a train for a day trip to Arles, Nîmes, Marseille, Martigues, Trarascon... Moving around is really easy and quick. I'd be more than happy to help you prepare your stay, as I used to work in Visitor Centers and love hosting people.
  I used to bring my beloved cat Ninja to my parents house (they leave nearby) when I'm away but he is getting old and he is sick for a few months and he doesn't like being moved from house to house anymore.
  He is very sweet and easygoing. It's not hard to give him it's medicine (twice a day, morning and evening), He just likes when there is someone around. He is only asking for it's 10 minutes cuddles in the morning and in the evening, otherwise, he just goes outside and sleep in the balcony.

  Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

  I share the garden with my neighbour. She has been welcomming foreigners and travelers in her house for many years, so she'll be happy to have a chat with you and will probably offer you cofee. There are many cultural and musical events all year around and we have to cinéma "Arts et essais " in Avignon, on original language with french subtiles. I'll leave the schedules on the table, as well as many flyers.

  Help

  Ninja needs his 5 minutes cuddles in the morning, then it's breakfast time. If he doesn't eat straight away, don't force hime, he will eat piece by piece all day long. For the médicine, I crush it and mix it with very very very little bit of milk, and I put it in his mouth with a syringe. He doesn't bite or claw, he is use to it. You just need to sit in the ground, hold him between your legs and gently hold his head. He eventually opens his mouth. Then he can stay outside all day, except If you leave very early and come back very late, in that case I prefer he stays inside. Then in the evening, you can feed him and give him the medecine again. He will probably come on the couch with you, or stay in the living room with you. But sometimes he likes to go out for a short while and come back, you know ,like a real prince cat, going in and out 3 times in an hour... ! Before sleeping that's the only moment when he really wants a cuddle. He ll probably come in your bed and lie on you ! But just for a little while, then he sleeps on your feet or in the desk.

  Wifi is not working well because it's an old house and there is no fibre yet. I work from home too, but I rather use my own data. The desk and seat are very good. Nice view around.
