  Description

  We live in a medium sized french city on the lake of Geneva. Until very recently, I was a professionnal bee keeper. I have had a strong accident 2 years ago and we are now almost retired. I am keeping just a few hives and I have had to stop a few projects engaged in house. Now i have partly recovered and would like to continue and end those projects in our house. I therefore need someone to end up those projects and end this beekeeping activity. The projects are aiming at reducing my former activity: I had 2 big rooms for bee keeping and need to reduce to one. I had started to create a game room for the grand children and we need to finish this.
  You would be eating with us and we would provide you with a private bathroom on the same floor as your room.
