About us

Hello, Bonjour, I’m Mark, my wife is Elizabeth. Our Dog is Rosie and the cat is Artimis.

Elizabeth and I are bookends of the Baby Boomer generation. I was born in 1947, and Elizabeth was born in 1964.

Despite our age difference we got married in 2005 and have found a mutual interest in travel. We got lucky and won a trip to France early on and enjoyed ourselves so much we got the bug. A more recent trip to France got us to thinking that maybe we could live there. I’m retired and Elizabeth will retire early so the timing is good.

This blog gives me a chance to chronical the adventure and share the good stuff and the trials of this adventure. As a result, hopefully, this will inspire others to follow a dream without too much fear.
