I am an art gallerist and art agent specialized in abstract painting, sculpture and photography (the last two being not abstract).
I bought that 17 roomed house in Vabre eleven years ago and I am in the process of re-decorating it.
The work is sometimes hard for my age ! that is why I offer an opportunity to Workaway travellers
who can work with their hands.
I am involved in art activities still : organizing art shows.
The population of the village (800 people) is mixed : villagers and retired urban people as well as foreigners of various nationalities.

The village (Vabre) is in the middle of a Natural protected area with lots of historical places (from pre-historic Ruthenian Menhirs to more modern castles...
Goya, Ingres and Toulouse-Lautrec museums are not far.
The area is famous for its food and wine.
There is a nice brand new swimming pool (using the river water) in the village - open in the summer.
A lot of mountain walks are possible from the village.
I am quite cool and also a good cook !
