House-sitting in Mane, France

House-sitting here in rural France has been really fun, and definitely a switch-up from our urban, fast-paced first month abroad. During quiet moments in the day, we can hear sheep bleating. Occasionally when Valentine, the donkey, gets excited he belts out a squeaky, hee-haw song for us.

We finally found some famous Bories! They are ancient structures built only out of stone.
