For the final weekend of my Mom's visit here in Lyon we did a home exchange and once again it was extremely successful. Well, technically the person who we exchanged with stayed at our place back in July so last weekend was our turn. Bise is about 2 hours southwest of Lyon in the middle of NOWHERE. In the village you will find 2 bed and breakfasts and a very small store carrying regional specialties including wine and anything made from chestnuts.
The home was nothing out of the ordinary, 2 bedrooms and a small garden in front but what made it spectacular was the view. The house is on the hill overlooking the valley and mountains.Besides the small village below there was nothing in front of us for miles. Even the sound of cars were missing.
In the afternoon we visited some of the region's beautiful medieval villages and at night we relaxed and enjoyed the serenity. We could have easily stayed there a couple more days. It was a wonderful way to end my Mom's visit in France. Hopefully next time she is here will find something just as exciting.
On a side note, Mathieu was missing her on Monday.
