  I'm 63 years old and my life has been dedicated to the visual arts and teaching philosophy.
  I decided to retire to the countryside but in reality I don't have much experience and maintenance tasks prove to be difficult.

  Aide

  I have a very small mill, which in the past ground corn to make flour.
  In January, a big storm made the stream jump from its banks and much of the land was destroyed. Gradually we have recovered but there is still a way to go to get back to what it was.
  It also has vegetable gardens and fruit trees that were planted recently.
  Water is not lacking but it is necessary to conduct it to take full advantage. Ineed help gardenning, farms, help around the house, general maintenance and some building small projects.

  Hébergement

  The mill has a bed and a bathroom, a small fridge and a stove.
  it's very funny like the house of the 7 dwarfs.
  I will be able to secure basic food and whenever possible we will have a meal together.
  
  In any case, the mill is about 1,200 meters from the center where you can do whatever shopping you think is convenient.
  As its infrastructures are fragile you have to be very careful. Don't put paper in the toilet and use everything very
  gently.
