Atelier d'écriture

Through simple and fun exercises, we invite you to practise your writing by playing with words.

In this age of AI, you’ll no doubt want to preserve and nurture your ability to express yourself, find the right words, discover new ones and put them together to create good writing that reflects your thoughts. Imagination, creativity and good humour are always part of these sessions.

Violaine and Olivier have recently moved to Burgundy and wish to live there whilst remaining fully aware of environmental issues. To this end, they have set up Cense des Possibles in an old farmhouse in the heart of the village of Darcey.

The property features a large garden where they have created areas dedicated to biodiversity. Here, they grow a mix of vegetables – which are used in the cookery workshops – as well as flowers and fruit trees.

Driven by the bonds they’re forging with their guests and neighbours, they’re always delighted to welcome you and share what they’ve learnt and their warm hospitality.

Their aim: to inspire your daily life and your desire to live better.

Does the word “Cense” intrigue you? It means “farm” in the Nord region, where they come from.

You’d like to learn and develop your culinary skills to the delight of your taste buds and those of your loved ones.

Violaine, the head chef, treats you to her healthy and delicious recipes. She also runs various workshops on cooking, zero-waste practices and wellbeing.
