Bonjour !
We're a family of 5, Solenn and Benoît, along with Alexis-Maël 16, Yann 13 and our cute little baby girl, Zélie 2 years old.
We live happy in a 2000 people countryside village near by the city of Angers and surounded by several castles and sightseeing in a close neighbourhood.
From where we live, it takes only 5mn to reach Malagué Lake, where you could enjoy swimming safely (with young children) and spend a full day having BBQ there and of course, playing pétanque too !
Though our typical Loire valley house, called Longère, is located in the heart of Jarzé, we enjoy a very quiet and peaceful 1200m2 backyard, with a large terrace, and a little kitchen garden you could collect vegetables from.
Conveniently located 5mn away from both motorway and Angers Airport, we only need 25mn to reach the train station with the high speed train (TGV) that could bring you to downtown Paris in just 1h30mn.
We have now agreed for an home exchange this summer with a family in Norway.
We're all pretty excited to exchange our home and way of living with new friends !
