  Description

  We decided to embark on an incredible adventure, that of living with our friends in a house open to all, in which we share the woodworking equipment, and we involved everyone in the reconstruction of the house, a beautiful villa in the city immersed in the green. we are raising our 2 children (12 and 9 years old) with a spirit of freedom and social conscience. We have given up on the use of chemicals to wash clothes and dishes, we have set up an organic permaculture garden. We are convinced that through the testimony of new criteria for living, a new model of sharing can be established, inspired by the teaching of nature and bartering.
