    ☀️We are a couple, Lea is 34 and Pierre is 36. We moved here 2 years ago and we are really happy to live in this magic forest !
    🧘🏼Pierre has traveled backpacking during 8 years, he speaks French Spanish English and a littl of Italian. He is a professional beekeeper, in a soft and sensible way, and happy to share his passion with you if you want to learn or just discover. He practices Vipassana meditation every day morning and evening (and Lea too) . He loves mushrooms picking and he also started a Shiitake culture here !
    💃Lea speaks English, French and a little of Spanish , she is actress & composing music for her own project actually, she organizes movement workshops, cacao ceremonies, spiritual retreats, she gives massage and voice therapy . And she has a deep relation with plants and nature.

    🌳Our project is not yet completely define, but we have the intention to make a place for everyone who is called by meditation, creating arts, nature and introspection. We would like to create a practice space with rooms and abilities for visitors who want to isolate or rest in our forest, and also guiding visitors to bring out their creativity.

    ✨You are welcome to help Pierre for the beekeeping, making mosaics for the bathroom, building dry toilets or taking care of the plants..

    🐈We have a nice and beautiful cat here named Toro who loves to be with us, everywhere we go even for a walk.
