We are a couple with a child (little girl of 6 years old). We live in France, near the swiss border, 35 km from Geneva ( half an hour drive away by car and 25 minutes away by train), in a village with a grocery and restaurant, 5 kilometers from a small city named Bellegarde-sur-Valserine, with all the conveniences. Our big house, with garden (2000 square meters) and terrass, is located in the Jura Moutains,
one hour away from Mont Blanc montain and Italy border. And by train, we are at 2 hours 45 from Paris. We propose a car.
