Lifestyle

 We live in the country side, and we like it. We love nature, hiking, riding bicycle. We practise scuba-diving, and my husband is now a pilote, and he loves that as a hobby. Sometimes, we fly to an Island (Ile d'Yeu for example) for a day, we ride bicycle there, swimm , have fun.
Since we have lived for 2/3 years in Czech Republic (my husband's job for a while), we enjoy more and more travelling, we like to discover different styles of life. We like also to visit museum, architecture, etc...
We practise skiing with grandchildren now.
I am now retired, so I teach scuba diving at the swimming pool each week, and I practise also blacksmithing for my pleasure.
My husband still works and is always everywhere in France
