ABOUT ME

After living in Asia for 3 years, we have settled my wife and I in this beautiful region of France at the border with Geneva/Switzerland, between lakes and mountains. I have a everyday job in Finance in Switzerland and my wife stays home with our son. On weekends, we go out for many activities, such as hike, snowboarding/skiing in the winter, enjoy the nature around.
