The ordinary moments #35 – France week 1

June 30, 2019 by Jenni 13 Comments

We’ve been in France for a week now. We’ve come over for a couple of months to look around various areas in the Dordogne with a view to buying over here once our house sale completes. This week has been all about relaxing and finding our feet before we start venturing out. We have been to the supermarket a couple of times, out for dinner and yesterday we went to a soft play centre as Lucas wants to meet some children. A lot of time has been spent around our gite and pool, it has been late 30s and early 40s so it’s been too hot to do much apart of swim x

    Your first week of relaxing sounds lovely! I didn’t realise it was sooo hot out there at the moment! Having the pool to use is such a bonus for you all.
    Hope Lucas enjoyed meeting french children at the play centre. X

    Good thank you, going to start looking at places properly from tomorrow. We really like the lifestyle though so I’m glad we’ve come over to try it properly. Just need to learn the language!x

    He did enjoy seeing other children, we saw an outdoor play area last night so I think we will go there today as it’s overcast at the moment x

    What lovely photos. It looks like a beautiful place, but that heat! I can’t imagine it being that hot.

    Life in France does sound amazing, it doesn’t seem that the heat has been putting you off much either which is good. Happy house hunting.
