Hello, I’m Stephanie – and yes, I’m a lady with llamas! I live in Creuse with husband Chris, children Benjamin, Caitlin and Ruadhri and an ever growing assortment of animals, which include, of course, llamas. We have eight llamas and six alpacas, although if things go to plan, that number will increase this year with the arrival of some cria – i.e. babies. We also have hens, ducks and turkeys, guinea-pigs, rabbits, cats, goats and a dog – and an awful lot of carp as we run a carp fishery and holiday gite alongside our llama trekking business. We have a 75-acre slice of beautiful rural Creuse with fields, lakes and woods. It’s amazing.
We moved to France from Co. Cork, Ireland, in 2006. It was a huge thing to do, especially for the children who were 14, 11 and 4 at the time – but they were all very positive and excited about it. And so were Chris and I. Nearly five years on, we’ve never worked so hard in our lives, but have achieved so much and have found a better way of life.
... for this. Mind boggling, isn't it?

Keep checking back. It’s nice to have an audience! I love writing. I was a children’s author in Ireland and I’m about to relaunch on the adult scene. I’m also an addicted knitter and crafter – when time allows!
