Paris is not really France. It's Paris.

Bonne chance....

i lived in paris, but that was 20-odd years ago, so proably not much help.
if it'sill there, don't eat in roger la frite opposite montparnasse tower.
the metro was brilliant
at the door to my flat was a restaurant called port di pidgiguiti or something similar - 20-something rue etex, metro to guy moquet, highly recommended (if it's still there) African, all the profits go/went home for irrigation/education/construction projects

I tried living in Limousine - but find the motorhome more comfortable and spacious. 🙂

I live in SW France, I'm French and English too.

Which part of Paris will you be in? Like any big city parts of it are pleasant to live in and others less so.

Paris is not really France. It's Paris.

I tend to agree with that remark. Plenty of forest out southwest of Paris, Versailles and beyond.

Languedoc is where its at. Sea and mountains at a stones throw but without the yacht w*****s on the Cote d'Azur. 😛

Scaredy, I can take a hill 55 x 40 x 20cm

I'll ask nicely if I can open the door when we're over the right location. Just watch your heads.

Languedoc also has the tramontane which drives you nuts when it's blowing hard and even when it's only blowing gale force chases warm surface water offshore so the sea is cold.

Nothing wrong with a little wind every now and then, or all day if you're around Narbonne. 😆
