Retired couple since 2022, we have 4 children who no longer live at home. We live in the countryside in the Lyon region above the magnificent Condrieu vineyard. We have a property with a swimming pool. We are surrounded by our 3 cats and our living space is a haven of peace.
We love nature and hiking. We also enjoy travelling, exploring cities and regions: culture and heritage, traditions and gastronomic terroirs. My husband loves DIY, restoring old buildings and maintaining green spaces. I like reading, cooking and entertaining friends. I practice yoga and mindfulness meditation. I am a Mindfulness practitioner. I also take painting lessons.
