ALAIN

Tales and Legends

For a long time I have been walking the wonderful paths of Brittany between my house in Pleubian, the wild peninsula, the Talbert furrow, the Côte de Granit Rose, Paimpol… I believe that every little pebble in every path must have the memory of my steps.

So I reopened the book of tales. But unwittingly, I also tapped into the bottomless barrel of time, all the stories of the Argoat and the Armor past, present and future. And it’s these stories that I tell and want to share with you. Once upon a time…

In life, Alain is a storyteller and performs regularly for private parties or at storytelling festivals.
As a Greeters Peninsula, Alain wants to share his love for the wonderful Breton history repertoire with ease…
Alain won a “Bronze Bug” in 2019, at the big competition of the Bogue d’Or in Redon in the category “tales”, with a story taking place in Pleubian.

Alain invites you to let yourself be carried by his tales drawn from the bottomless barrel of time, all the stories of the Argoat and the Armor past, present and to come. Limited number of places. The location of the meeting will be communicated to you at the time of registration.
Minimum: 2 people. Maximum: 6 people.

Walking organized as part of the “Presqu’île Greeters”, a network of passionate inhabitants of their territory who volunteer to share “their” peninsula for a meeting.
And then one day, leaning on the menhir of the coastal path, at the foot of the Creac’h Maout, I felt the breath of the stone on my forehead. At that moment, I decided to take a different path, those of stories.
