I went on holiday for a week to Paris... loved it so much that I decided to get a secretarial job for a year or two to improve my French... after about six months, I decided I hated it and wanted to come home... I got over that and never since have I wanted to return permanently...
I would like a more relaxed lifestyle now that I'm getting old and doddery... so I wish there was more work in the sticks in France... but I've got I think the best of both worlds with my country escape at weekends... and busy weeks in the city...
I love coming home, don't get me wrong I am VERY patriotic... but I find England very overcrowded these days... and the roads a joke!
