In search of America...

Farming, crabbing and swimming in South Carolina...

24 August to 06 September: Two beautiful weeks wwoofing near Charleston, South Carolina. An amazing farm run by Renee, growing organic vegetables and raising chicken, turkey, sheep, rabbits and quails. With a dog, two cats, a donkey and a swimming pool on top of that...no need to say that we all had a hard time leaving the place!!

 

Some of the most charismatic figures of the place...LUCIIIIIIIIIIEEEEEEE!

RIKI, the nicest rooster who waits every evening at the same spot for you to come and put him to bed.

PIGEON, named by Theotime: so soft and quiet, cuddling him was definitely a nice way to start the day!

07 September: Our very last stop in the USA: Titusville. As it was hard to leave the farm, we had to find something really worth the drive for our last day in USA. Meeting the manatees in Titusville was totally amazing. A lot of them, big and small, coming near the shore and showing all kinds of behaviors...so curious that they even came to touch our feet at the pier.
