CURRENT MISSION

After a 1 year of travel in New Zealand, we decided to settle down in Ardèche, along the Rhône river... We now have 2 little children (Manon, 3 years old and Lila, just a little baby), and are happy to host couchsurfers at home!

ABOUT ME

Après un long voyage "de l'autre côté", nous reposons nos valises en France, notre terre natale, dans un coin d'Ardèche paisible. Nous aimons cuisiner, randonner, voyager, partager, découvrir de nouvelles cultures et personnes.
Nous nous ferons un plaisir de re-recevoir des travellers et rendre la gentillesse avec laquelle nous avons été reçus !

We are a french couple, loving to cook, hike, travel, share and discover new cultures...
And because we wanted to travel, we abandonned our little village for a few months to discover a little bit of the southern hemisphere to be able to tell new stories to the coushurfers we'll host at home in France!
So... we have a new house, you're welcome!!!
We live in a little city, in meridional Ardeche, an area close to the Rhone valley.
We are 3 in the house (Manu, Caroline and Manon, our little daughter), we have 2 young cats and a shepherd dog.
The area is fun to hike, to discover lovely little rivers where it's possible to bath in...
It's a quiet area but there are public transports to get in the village, but if you are on holidays in the area with your car, we can host you with great pleasure, just be sure to warn us a few days before to be sure we are there !

PHILOSOPHY

... je cherche, euh,... pas de conformisme abusif... Ã débattre !
