Description
We are a family of 4 living off-grid in a little walloon village. Our town is 5km away from the Eau d'heure lakes. Our straw bale house is on a little piece of land crossed by a creek, surrounded by meadows and forests.
We try to make as much as we can ourselves. We are very interested in things that are low tech and obviously respect the environment.
Here are a few things that we do: cheese making, bee keeping, organic food growing, sheep and chicken farming. We have many other projects to come.
We try to make our place a peacful place to stay where one can share on better ways to live.

Cultural exchange and learning opportunities
I think we can say we are an open happy family. So far, just like many others. If there is something not as common. It's our homestead. Living off-grid is a lifestyle we believe is worth sharing. We got inspired by people we met on the way and we would be thrilled to inspire others.

Feedback
You were really helpful and easygoing. You came at the right time to harvest our raspberries. We appreciated your initiatives: like showing us that raspberry/chia jam recipe and the danish specialty that I am not able to pronounce the name.
Hope you enjoyed the rest of your trip.
