  • Description

    Description

    We are a French & Canadian family living in the country side, in the French Alps. I am a single mum, with two children aged 8 and 10, we love outdoors, nature, literature, music and adventures. I aim for a fun and simple life with my children. We live in the country side, in a village called Miribel-Les-Echelles with 1,800 inhabitants, located in the mountain range of Chartreuse. Our house is a "maison dauphinoise" that we are finishing renovating. It has 6 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms and a big garden. We are on the edge of the village and nature starts right from our backyard.
