French property news

When we first arrived in France we were often asked, ‘Why have you chosen here to live?’ Our response was often that we didn’t chose here, it chose us. It’s a delightful story that we still often share with our guests, if they want to hear it.

So recently when we were approached by a French property news journalist, to feature in an article she was writing, we welcomed the opportunity to be involved. The series of articles she wanted to include us in are based around ‘What is village life like in rural France?’. The readers of French property news are often people looking to buy a house in France, either as a holiday home or a relocation; like us. Although when we first bought the house we were not looking to relocate…but that’s another story.

It was a delight to answer the questions posed to us, letting us reflect on our decision to live in France, which was so right for us. It was a huge compliment to be asked to contribute.
