Hello, I invite you to join me for this unique activity at the Mont Cenis Alpine Garden and to step into the shoes of a poet and a little butterfly (nature writing workshop).

Description

In this activity, I’ll introduce you to life around the Mont-Cenis garden by talking about lepidoptera and portraying one of these butterflies as it faces various challenges.
These challenges—which are largely emotional—are represented by various flowers that the nature guide will show you during a short tour. There are also other flowers (yarrow, carnation, bellflower, rhododendron...) that might represent your emotions. Following this tour, we’ll work together to write a text about yourselves, expressing your emotions through flowers, plants, and weather conditions (thunderstorms, rain, blue skies…).
In conclusion, this is a wonderful opportunity for you to meet new people while relaxing in an exceptional setting and learning to speak the language of the mountains and flowers.

Additional welcome
