What's your new years resolution going to be?
Mine is to move to France in 2018 and find someone to share the adventure of renovating a derelict house and man. Both need a lot of work.
Make sure you get there before Brexit!
That's the plan.
The Limosin is a beautiful area, still relatively cheap, Ryanair fly into Limoges and Poitier for around £60 return if you book right. Hot in summer and cold in winter - and some great biking (moto or mountain) if that is your thing.
