Description
Hi !
We are a welcoming family, with 4 unschooled children (Titouan 11 y.o, Colombe 10 y.o., Clément 7 y.o. and Louis 3 y.o.), in love with our surrounding mountains !
We live in the neighborhood of Grenoble, capital of the French Alps, in a nice house.
Paul works fulltime in a hybrid manner and Caroline needs more time to dedicate on her projects, this is why our first need is PLAY WITH THE KIDS and HELP IN THE HOUSE. Unschooling is for us a real lifestyle, it's "life learning" ! Our children love to play and share experiences with openhearted persons that truly respect them and consider them as an entire person.
What we love in our family : Nature, music, singing, swing and Lindy hop, free dancing, intuitive painting, making potery, sewing, mountain hiking, bathing in lakes and rivers, vegetable garden, ethological riding, model trains, Lego and Playmobil, football, tennis, bicycling and skate-parks, kundalini yoga, mindfullness and meditation, ancestral Wisdoms, circles, the Path of the Magdalene and the Rose medicine, ecorituals, intuitive singing with shamanic drums, brotherhood and sisterhood, co-creating the New Paradigm on our Mother Earth !
