Once in a Lifetime… Twice
In 2010, when we thought about living in France for a year, we had tons of questions:
- Could we get a visa?
- How would we find a place to live?
- Would my book club survive without me?
- What would happen to our business?
- What would we do about healthcare? School? Banking? Cars?
- Would we make friends?
- What would we do with our house and stuff in California?
- Would we enjoy the experience – especially the one of us that didn’t speak French?
- Would the kids’ English suffer?
- Should we ship stuff or just take plane luggage?
- ?????????????
But here’s the thing: Once you do it once, you know that it can be done. So this time, we had only one question:
WHY NOT?
We couldn’t come up with a reason, so we’re doing it again. Another year in the south of France, this time a farmhouse in the Languedoc. JM will have plenty of castles to explore, including the fantastically amazing Carcassonne.
We’ll arrive early in September. Come visit!
That’s wonderful news, to have the trip of a lifetime twice … or the trip of two lifetimes once … or two lifetimes in one trip or … something.
My best French friend comes from the Languedoc, so I have heard a bit about that region.
Bonne chance!

You’re amazing!
