Guédelon

After 40 mins. drive through beautiful countryside listening to beautiful music I arrive at Guédelon. It is a 25 year project building a castle exactly in the way it was done in the 13th century. It is magnificent. Everything needed for constructing the castle and for the community involved is sourced and made on site. Before Guédelon shut for the winter I felt I needed to go there to do some drawings - for 3 hours I am engulfed in a medieval world and feel completely at home. Then I drive home and leave home behind.
