Descrição
I live in central Brittany on a small-holding, homestead, that is leaning towards a permaculture based system. I live close to the beautiful Lake Guerledan and the Forest of Quenecan. There are many local markets nearby plus lots of forest and woodland walks. There is always something to do, but sturdy shoes and waterproofs are often needed.
My house and land are partially renovated and I need some basic maintenance help.
I have 3 ponies and 7 sheep plus a variety of poultry. I grow a lot of my own food and use the wool from my sheep for spinning and weaving. I'm a painter and sculptor and love to share my skills with visitors.
