A la Bonne Heure is now home to the Charron-Chan family. We live in a separate, private annex to the house built in the 1920s.

Catherine was born in the lower Laurentiens and completed her studies in theatre. If she's not answering e-mails, tidying up the house or fundraising for school, you can find her at the local yoga studio or enjoying a long walk. catherine
