    Description

    Hello, I live on Belle-Île-en-Mer, a magnificent island!

    I'm a baker, with a small bakery equipped with a wood-fired oven and a solar oven, using organic methods.

    The summer season is hectic on Belle-Île; I work a lot and I'm passionate about my work. As a result, I don't have time to tend to the garden, prepare meals, or do exterior painting.

    Bonjour, j'habite belle île en mer, une île magnifique !
    Je suis boulangère, un petit fournil avec four à bois et four solaire, en bio.
    La saison d'été est dense à belle île, je travaille beaucoup et je suis passionnée par mon métier. Du coup je n'ai pas le temps de m'occuper du jardin, des repas, ou des travaux de peinture exterieurs.

    Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

    I love my island, and I can recommend some beautiful walks and opportunities for friendly gatherings. I can talk about the challenges of island life, but also about the very strong sense of community here. I hosted au pairs a long time ago, and there was a lot of cultural exchange, including sharing recipes and meals! The scenery is breathtaking, and if you enjoy walks along the rugged coastline, you'll be in heaven!

    J'adore mon île, je peux conseiller des belles balades et des moments conviviaux. Parler des contraintes liées à la vie sur une ile, mais aussi à la solidarité très forte ici. J'ai déjà accueilli des jeunes filles au pair il y a longtemps et il y avait eu beaucoup d'échanges culturels, également sur les recettes et les repas! Le paysage est a couper le souffle ici et si vous aimez les balades sur la côte sauvage, vous serez servis!

  • Accommodation

    Accommodation

    You can either sleep in a room in the house or in a lovely, comfortable tent.

    We can either eat together or you can eat on your own since I'll be at work. In any case, there will always be food in the fridge and fresh bread, as I'm a baker ;-) We enjoy Breton products like buckwheat galettes; I'd be happy to introduce you to them if you haven't tried them.

    ---

    Soit vous dormez en chambre dans la maison, soit dans une chouette tente tout confort.

    Soit nous mangeons ensemble, soit vous mangez seul car je serai au travail. Dans toutes les situations, il y aura toujours à manger dans le frigo et du pain frais puisque je suis boulangère ;-) Nous apprécions les produits bretons comme les galettes de blé noir, je vous ferai découvrir si vous ne connaissez pas.
