Accommodation, Facilities and Local Area
I teach French and I make dictionaries on specialised languages. Sport has a very special place in my life as I practise dancing and climbing for years. My husband was a member of the French climbing team. He is 33 years old and is a tree surgeon and climbing instructor. We have a daughter, Léa, who is nearly 2 years old.

The house, an ancient farm, is situated in a very small village in Burgundy near Beaune, the town of wine. We have a house which will be extended in the next years giving students a private bathroom and kitchen. For the moment, we have three bedrooms, an office near the student bedroom, a kitchen, a dining room and a living room. The bathroom is just beside the student bedroom. Couples are welcome. We have a big garden (3000 m²) for gardening, relaxing or even studying. We have a climbing wall.

Vegetarian cooking is possible using fresh vegetables and fruit from the garden.
