I'm an Aussie architect from Melbourne, with a past in American Football and a love for surfing. My wife and I packed up our lives and headed to France – drawn by the rich culture, stunning architecture, and the chance to explore Europe. We now run Gîtes, living the dream in the heart of France. Herky & Loulou our Belgian Shepherds, they're our four-legged travel buddies, who made the epic journey from Melbourne to France to be with us.
