  Description

  Hi!
  I live in a small wooden chalet with my cat and dog. The area is quiet and surrounded by forest. There is 5,000m² of land with fruit trees, a vegetable garden, a greenhouse, and a small workshop.
  You can park a van or camp on site (I can lend a large tent), or use the available caravan.
  I'm experimenting with various projects related to self-reliance, low-tech, farming, and woodcraft. I organize workshops using community education tools; the idea is to share and experiment together. During the summer, I grow large quantities of vegetables, which I process (jars, drying, juice).
  I look forward to meeting you.
  
  Salut !
  Je vis dans un petit chalet en bois avec mon chat et mon chien. Le coin est calme et entouré par la forêt. Il y a 5000m² de terrain avec fruitiers, potager, serre et petit atelier.
  Il est possible de garer un van ou camper sur place (je peux prêter une grande tente) ou d'utiliser la caravane disponible.
  J'expérimente différentes choses autour de l'autonomie, les low-tech, la paysannerie et l'artisanat bois. J'organise des ateliers avec des outils d'éducation populaire, l'idée est de partager et expérimenter ensemble. Pendant l'été je cultive des légumes en quantité que je transforme (bocaux, séchage, jus).
  Au plaisir de vous rencontrer

  Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

  I am experimenting a lot of different things around self-sustainability, low-tech (Norwegian cooker, rocket stove, solar drier, solar shower, solar panel, recycling laptops battery, etc...), wood handcraft mainly without electricity (for example : greenwood sculpture, wooden cooking utensils like spoons, forks, etc..., minimalistic furniture etc...), I organize workshops around these topics using non formal education practices. The idea is to share and experiment together. I am also passionate about group dynamics, methods of cooperation and collective self organisation with I experiment also.
  During the summer I grow vegetables (organic) in quantities so as to cook and process for later.
  I am French, I also speak Spanish, Portuguese and English which I love to practice when I can.
