Description
Hi,
We, Laurence et Laurent (53-54) live in a very old house in a very little ski resort. We have 4 children 28, 26, 24 years old and a young girl who was born in 2017.
We rent two flats during holidays. We have a permaculture garden during summer and get warm with solar panels and by burning wood in winter. We have some animals : donkeys, ducks, chickens, rabbits. Our house is located in a little hamlet in the middle of the mountains. We practice hiking, ski touring, climbing, mountain biking, ski, snowshoeing...
We own an old house to repair with a forest all around where we cut wood for heating our house during cold season.
Laurence worked in a tourist office for 25 years, she's currently developping a new activity as a games author and Laurent has his own company in electricity, soft energies and he is a technology teacher.
