THE SHACK. The sun is already coated in a few moments. Sitting on the balcony, the forest and its nocturnal noises awakened everyone around me, Venus leads the way, the wood stove begins to broadcast a gentle heat on the inside, I am about to spend my first night in a hut ...
14/First night in the hut..
EDITO 
Experience unforgettable as that will give you your first time in a hut at the bottom of a wood. Only provisions of quality for two to three days, literature and nature all around you. Of course the laptop is off, and all the vessels of this type forgotten. 25 minutes from the first country road, only white traces of airplanes in the sky can wake you up from the millenniums atmosphere that you are now experiencing. The feeling is impressive, you are a hermit deep in the woods, instead of Jeremiah Johnson in the rockies or looking for yhe wolf which you lead in the dance.
Personally I would not have done on the experience of the cabin in this way, I thought about friends, guitars and campfires in the field nearby. But a busy schedule has been preceded, in a special circumstance, an old friend stayed first in the cabin. He did not have the same approach, of course, he had gone to live in robinson.
He had made the road in France and Navarre, at the time of the "experiences" .His approach was different. A return loneliness 4 days later, and after largely forgotten our appointment for the return to the cities, his story of a man of the woods, lumberjack, explorer, quickly gave me want to live an extraordinairy adventure. A months after I took possession of the place, and i roared with enjoyment.
This site is the logical continuation of these wanderings, experiments in the construction of huts and renovations. It is intended for those who want to share alone or accompanied moments of harmony and simple pleasures. ML

The exodus of lucas
A very good weather too, I remember accompanying my first real rendezvous with this corner. It was a good omen, I said to myself. Not long ago in sum, as my exodus occurred in April 2001.
I was sure my revolution of the 21st century and especially in my thirties. I lâchais my apartment, my 3 "credit cards" loyalty, my season ticket parking downtown, liquidais my receipts varied. The social security would be transferred later. The storie in page countrylife
JacK, a passenger in the countryside.
"I said "yes" on the ground and took 2 months of wages to settle the seller and my boss made me notary fees, in any event ç'est he who advised me to buy a ground without delay. Gradually, I renovated this small fold. Initially, it was thought that it was the shack of Bilbo the hobbit.
The south west of France was not my final destination, then I did in fact do not. 30 years later, but I am still half time. The choice was not in vain because I bump into renovation and carpentry from mid March to mid November, and I am the rest of the time abroad. The job of roofer me an absence made it difficult winter. This job allows me to mixed spend the cold season in places more attractive and I take advantage of valleys and plateaus by the bloom at the end of ceps and chestnuts. The storie in page countrylife
Ode to the wind sale
Emma makes us the pleasure of telling us four years of his life in his cabin, I would say no more!
When I saw the photo of that cabin on the small computer screen Merchant well, I knew from the outset that it was carved for me. Or me for it. It did, however, a piece of brown roof produced at large penalty of a tangle of pins, and a wealth of grass around it.
The road winds from the village of Vauchassis hills until the first commune in the woods. Hidden by a beech hedge the little house is invisible. It monitors the top of its hill woods and surrounding fields. We need to climb up a steep path well, between a row of trees and wild pine planted manmade and ravaged by the recent storm. The hut is perched there, in a clearing, in total silence. Just calm the circle with a nozzle above it. Since the covered gallery, I extend the landscape. Silence. An apple enlace a young oak tree right in front of me, extends its branches in bloom in the middle of acorns. More below, a sort of lodgepole pine seems to come from Japanese prints. There. I said "I take" and the nozzle has punctuated a long high-pitched scream. Smile.
I lived there four years. The storie
