Departure from the campsite and direction Sallertaine<\/strong> to discover this pretty village and the island of the craftsmen<\/strong>…it takes about 15 minutes to reach the destination.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Once there, you will discover not an island but a district entirely dedicated to craftsmen<\/strong>. And not just any kind. It is about these not very traditional trades which crossed the centuries and which are for some in the process of disappearance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To discover with them this unique know-how<\/strong>, to observe them practicing their art, to hear them talking about it, it is really a nice experience.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n

I remember this anecdote.My son, captivated by the glassblower, asked him:<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

– Sir, how do you learn your trade?The glassmaker smiled at her and answered in a soft voice.– As a child, you can’t learn the glassmaking trade, you have to steal it.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

My son, of course, did not understand the meaning of this message.<\/em>For my part, I admit that when I saw him practicing his art, I was fascinated by his control and his incredible dexterity. To achieve such feats, I want to believe that repetition and knowledge are two essential ingredients.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n
