Accommodation

Our house is old and we can offer a room but it's decrepit (the wall are breaking down a little bit...!), in winter it might be a bit cold... it will be a shared bathroom also.

I usually love cooking and would prepare everything but with my baby it's kind of hard at the moment, but it's changing every week so we will see! I will probably ask for little help to prepare diner, to cut vegetables for example ! We will eat together but if you feel like having different timetables we can talk about it ;)

What else ...

We traveled quite a lot, we have nice memories of India to share for example ! We know quite well our region and I (Violette) will be pleased to show you some of the treasures to visit here !
We also like our calm and quite moments, we wil also like simple evening with a movie for example!
