Not at all. I love the French countryside. Quiet, beautiful and for me relaxing. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There are 8,5 houses and a farm on Thouiller. The farm is just a working location for a huge farmer. 8,5 is an odd number, but 8 houses are renovated, and one is still empty and needs get a new chance. Of these 8 houses, 5 are permanently lived in. 3 are holiday homes. There is one road leading to a main road 1,5Km away. At the end of the hamlet the road transfers to a path, used by the farmer, the deer and by me, when I walk the dogs. If there are 4 cars a day passing by we talk about a busy day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"681\" src=\"https:\/\/thouiller.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/LVZ_7292-1024x681.jpg\" alt=\"Road to Haut Vienne\" class=\"wp-image-23\" srcset=\"https:\/\/thouiller.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/LVZ_7292-1024x681.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/thouiller.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/LVZ_7292-300x199.jpg 300w, https:\/\/thouiller.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/LVZ_7292-768x511.jpg 768w, https:\/\/thouiller.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/LVZ_7292-1536x1021.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/thouiller.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/LVZ_7292-2048x1362.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Main languages are English, Dutch, and soon French as well.
