As a couple we look a little bit out of the ordinary (people recognise us as the small Asian guy and the tall Dutch woman). Santi arrived in France at the age of 2 from Laos and Sandra was born in The Netherlands. It has been quite a detour before we met and this was evenetually in a Buddhist monastery around the corner from where we are now. We both lost our hearts to this little corner of France. Simply Permaculture has developed itself slowing over the years. The first years we arrived at this little corner in St Jean de Duras we set up our little glamorous campsite and b&b business (Simply Canvas), since the last years we have found the time to develop the land into what it is now and we are enthusiastically continuing to do so.
