Description
We are a Japanese/French family of 4 with 2 big shepherd dogs, goats, chickens, etc. We live in a cute, secluded little valley where we renovate old Japanese traditional buildings, do permaculture (swales, various earthworks, fruit forest, mobile chicken farming, etc). At the moment, we are trying to develop food stuff based on eggs, berries, medicinal plants. We love music, high culture, cinema, board games, family hikes, sports.
