    Description

    Carmoune, in the heart of the South-West of France, is an oasis of renewal with a friendly living space project. This part of Gascony between the departments of Gers and Lot & Garonne is nicknamed "French Tuscany" because of its similar landscapes.
    Annie, trained in naturopathy and the caring education of children, has had a long experience as a professional dancer.
    Henri, with a physical disability, has a voluntary activity supporting people and their development. He also runs caring relationship workshops and offers to guide meditations. He takes care of the permaculture forest garden.
