Description
Hello! We are Paul & Juliette & Lou!
We are a french couple, 37 years old (Paul) and 33 (Juliette), with our son of 2 years old (Lou).
We live in a small comunity and share an old renovated farm with a couple of friends (Gab&Marie) and their kids (6, 3 and 2 years old).
We live on a small montain surended by clifs and sheeps, a great garden and a lot of renovation works to do!
We plan to enlarge our community with an other family in the coming years after rearranging the houses, still some projects to do!
We are basically involved in sustainable jobs (Ju & Paul : yoga teacher+ sustainable building engineer // Gab & Marie : organic farmer + teacher, ) and try to make our life in this way,
We (Paul&Ju) 've been travelling in 2015 around the world for a year, and been doing 5 workaways at these times, a lot of good feelings and experiences!
So! we want to come back in this comunity and this time greet travelers... Also a way of sharing this experience with our cohabitants!
About the nature over here: we are at the beginning of the French Alps, close to the Viarona (bicycle road along the Rhone River), many lakes, many forests... A good spot to discover the region :)

We have a good sense of relationship and a welcoming environment with our friends of our community and with other neighbours.

Juliette is a yoga teacher and a great cook, she can share and teach her skills.
Paul can teach you about edible wild plants and what he has learned in the garden after some years of working on it!
If you climb, Paul will be happy to spend some time with you on our local cliffs!

Depending on the season, We have a small outside room and you will have access to the common bathroom.
If you come in september or october you will have your room/bathroom/etc. It could even be the entire house depending on our moving to the house just next door in the same property.
If you have a van / tent and if you are quite self-sufficient it's great for us too.

3 meals a day. In septembre and october Juliette will cook for you. During Summer, we cook together
We eat tasty, organic and local (from the garden we hope this summer!), mainly vegetarian, good local cheese, eggs from our chickens...and we shop basics at the grocery. If you come in september / october, food could be with meat if you prefer.
What else ...
it will be exciting to create things together!
