    Descrição

    We have an ancient farm house that is waking up from a long sleep, and preparing itself to welcome" differently-abled" people, some long-term, like your humble servant (Mehdi) and some short term, like my friends, relatives, neighbours, pilgrims, hosts ...and YOU !, to share a simple, sobre and joyful lifestyle. (minimal consumption of energy (renewable) etc. )
    smoke and drug-free... but we might get high singing praises to the Lord!! ;)

    the garden/ park /orchard, has fruit trees and bushes, flowers, wild edibles, and some vegetables,
    it also hosts loads of butterflies, buzzing insects and birds! (thanks to its exuberant adventices ! )

    There is a lovely spot to nap under the magnolia ... :)

    we eat organic and healthy food ; we have a wonderful market for local veggies, fruit, eggs, cheese, fish and bread. ... and fair-traded chocolate! ;)


    we agree with this visionary exhortation:

     "Christians are called to an ecological conversion that involves letting all the consequences of their encounter with Christ spring forth to the world around them. Living their vocation of protectors of the work of God is an essential part of a virtuous existence, neither optional nor secondary in a Christian life "Pope Francis," Laudato Si "


    C'est une "Belle au bois dormant": cette jolie ferme (en cours de rénovation) et son grand (et exubérant...) jardin/parc (paradis des papillons, des butineurs , des oiseaux... et des adventices !) se réveille en effet progressivement d'un long sommeil, afin de nous permettre ('nous', c'est à dire: votre humble servante, mes proches, mes amis, mes hôtes, des pèlerins de passage...et VOUS! ) de partager un style de vie aussi naturel, sain(t), sobre (et JOYEUX ! ) que possible: alimentation bio, locale et équitable, jardinage (permaculture) consommation minimale d'énergie (renouvelable) etc. ,

    nous sommes tout à fait en accord avec cette exhortation visionnaire:

    "Les chrétiens sont appelés à une conversion écologique qui implique de laisser jaillir toutes les conséquences de leur rencontre avec le Christ sur les relations avec le monde qui les entoure. Vivre la vocation de protecteurs de l’œuvre de Dieu est une part essentielle d'une existence vertueuse, ni optionnelle, ni secondaire dans l'expérience chrétienne" Pape François, "Laudato Si"

    we are right beside the Santiago trail, by the Lot river: you can go and walk along it.
    we are a 12 mn walk to our Cahédrale and downtown Cahors,...which is a interesting town to visit: a rich history...and a promising future! ;)

    Vous pourrez pratiquer le français si vous voulez, but also english if you prefer... y podemos hablar (un poquito!) espanol si quieres!

    I am teacher of natural vision, as well as kinesiologist (to relieve pains and stress) and I have some knowledge on healthy food and medicinal plants.

    Ici nous apprenons ensemble, humblement, à prendre soin de notre "maison commune" *️️️️️️️️️️️️️️*️️️️️️️️️️️️️️*️️️️️️️️️️️️️️, dans la joie, la confiance, la paix et la miséricorde du Christ.

    we have a large variety of activities, indoors as well as outdoors, according to the weather, the seasons and your preferences:

    loads of painting (with natural, no-toxic paint or oil), gardening (permaculture principles) and fun projects such as building a solar shower a fruit dryer, and a hen house...recycling rain water, etc.

    some cleaning and freshening up to do as well...or cutting and sorting out dry wood for the winter.

    Ici les activités sont très variées, tant dehors que dedans. dans l'ensemble, c'est assez physique.
    l'emploi du temps est flexible selon la météo et le travail à faire: nous ajustons d'un jour à l'autre, et si une journée est très chargée, vous aurez une demi-journée de libre plus tard...

    The food is of the highest quality; every meal is made of fresh and organic produce, cooked at low temperature, mostly gluten, lactose, salt and sugar free. highly nutritious and hypotoxic. that's why we expect an extra hour/day of work than most hosts: 5 hours/day with breakfast and lunch (you can go out from mid-afternoon to 9 pm.) or 6 hours/day with 3 meals. (we eat between 5 and 6 pm, so you can still go and explore Cahors for a few hours)
    if you stay a second week, you'll work an hour less per day...


    no wifi in the house but downtown.
    you will sleep in a bedroom in the house, unless you prefer to put up your tent in the garden !?
    the house setting is simple and comfortable ,you will help keeping it clean, tidying up and improving it little by little.
    we all retire around 9:30 p.m.... and get up early: we have breakfast between 7:30 and 8 am.
    the patio, entirely covered with wisteria, is simply wonderful! we take our meals there most of the time in spring summer and fall...

    la nourriture est d'excellente qualité: chaque repas est préparé avec des produits frais et bio., cuisiné à basse température, très peu de gluten, de lactose, de sel ou de sucre.... c'est une alimentation hyper nutritive et hypo-toxique (c'est pour ça que nous attendons 1h de travail en plus par jour que la moyenne des hôtes)
    la maison est en cours d'aménagement mais il y a tout ce qu'il faut; vous aiderez à la garder propre et à l'améliorer.
    la terrasse, couverte de glycine est très agréable; nous y prenons la plupart des repas du printemps à l'automne, et même parfois à midi l'hiver!
