The UK does nothing for me at all any-more even though there are some beautiful places there. France just feels like home, despite the fact that my French is terrible. We have made some fantastic French friends and they are all very patient with my language problems. Learning a new language once you have passed 60 is not easy. For me, I have no flair for languages and my memory is rubbish. Never the less I am soooooo happy here. Luckily Nigel learnt French at school and he is good at languages so I have a back up LOL.

The barn, the large chateau, the memorial, the church...it all looks picture-perfect. <br />The fact that you could not find any information about the village only makes it more intriguing and a bit mysterious, to my mind anyway.Joytihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06704064690267281149noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3945050858396741262.post-39971371840925294752011-05-07T22:49:40.403+02:002011-05-07T22:49:40.403+02:00I always feel little jealous about all the nice pl...I always feel little jealous about all the nice places around you. France is beautiful. Sometimes me and my wife would talk about moving to another country and talk about villages of France and Spain. She does not feel home anymore in India and neither she wants to go back to the US. Just showed her the pictures and she has not stopped wowing:)Sebabhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14378499293459799495noreply@blogger.com
