The story begins in June 2016. As a school teacher and a judo coach, I had no idea that I would start an adventure like this one…I one day strumbled across an advertisement…
Immediately fell in love with this old crumbling house standing next to a stream. Its beautiful view on the vineyards and its colourful geraniums put a spell on me.
After spending a couple of days thinking my project through and receiving much appreciated support from my friends and family, what once was a dream was on its way to becoming reality! The adventure begins!
Many months of construction work ensue, in order to give back to this house its previous charm, typical of our region.

I juggled between appointments, site visits, construction works, choosing furniture and materials. A year later, the construction chapter came to a close, and my book is now opening up to you…
A book already full of sories,
A book to discover our Alsacian stories,
A book where you will write your own pages…
I look forward to meeting you,
Camille
