A visit planned to last two hours, I was lucky enough to be able to accompany Franck during the afternoon in his firewood activity, a real joy. It allowed me to discover two activities, permaculture and firewood, which I didn't know about. I'll go back when the vegetable garden is in full swing.
Hello Véronique, a big thank you again for this moment of sharing in your little paradise! We were delighted to meet you. The Dordogne being our vacation spot for several years, be sure we will come back to see you very soon! Have a beautiful autumn!
We met Stephane at the right place and time, walked around the old town and heard about interesting history and present. The walk was spiced with football and modern sculpture, and was very enjoyable. Thank you Stephane!
