    Description

    Hi , I moved from The Netherlands to France in 2022 to choose a life of nature , and stillness. I live in the Morvan , a beautiful nature- reserve. It is also a lot of tasks in my beautiful garden , I am starting a permaculture , not that big , but all new and exciting. The property contains 3 houses and the garden of 1300 m2. Surrounded by the woods , hills and lakes of the Morvan.

    Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

    The place is in nature , quiet , and it offers the possibility to become at peace and in stillness. In the area you can do great walks .
    Working as an artist in metal , I could teach some skills in that area , especially in finding forms that come from the soul .
    Making music together is one of my favourite things to do.
