Actor of this development by learning dance and music and playing in several groups of Breton music, skimming Brittany in the Festou-Noz (night party) but also by renovating an abandoned farmhouse in the center of the Brittany.
I raised animals there (goats, cows, rabbits), thus renovating the buildings to create a farm inn and rural lodgings.
