Description
We are a family of four leaving on a land in Quebec, between Montreal and Ottawa.
Adrian is a man of 41 years old who is passionate by travel, gardening, human relation, history and Christiany. Josianne, 36 years old, has also travelled a lot and love natural therapies such as massotherapy, reiki, yoga, meditation and herbalism. She also love cooking. We both wish to grow our own medicinal herbs and as many as possible of our veggies. Elena (2 years and half) and Lucie (4 months) are our two little girl that fills us with so much love. We don't have any animals at our place because we still like to travel whenever we can. We need help to take care of the gardens, the cooking and play with our daughters. We also have some carpentary projects around the house. We have 41 acres land which include 30 acres of forest.

We both have spiritual beliefs and we like to do a small prayers and gratitude before meals. We are both open and we like to exchange about beliefs and philosophical thoughts.We do not drink or smoke and we rather have people that do not need it either. We don't have TV but we do have a good wiifi. We are pretty far from food market so you will need to have your own car or go with us if you need something particular. We like to bring our guest to the beach when we can, visit the area or go in the city. We do go to the church in Ottawa on some sundays so you could have a couple of hours in the city.
