Hi,
Saw your post and had to reply, even though we are not quite there yet. I am American, my partner is French, we have 6 yr old twins. After 6 yr's in California, we came back to England, after 8 months in Richmond, North Yorkshire, we are ready to go to France! My partner has work contacts in Perpignan and we are considering moving there when the kids finish this term. Unfortunately, neither the children nor myself speak French, but we are willing to learn. You have been there for quite some time, so i take it it has been good for you? Do you have children? What are the prices there, accomodation, petrol, food, etc...? My partner, being French, is very ecxited, I am a bit hesitant. The weather is a huge draw, though! What are the schools like, would you have any idea?
Sorry, I may sound like I am all over the place with this! We also love the sound of a BBQ, we're still missing California and nightly BBQ's a bit.
Any info would be mush appreciated.
Regards,
Robin

I speak french very well and am often confused/accused of actually being french. I would like to meet people from America and help them to feel welcome here (as I know its not easy). I'm in the perpignan area (Argeles-sur-mer). Feel free to contact me through this site, and maybe me and my wife (who is french/spanish, limited english speaking) could organize an afternoon with whoever is new in the area. Looking to maybe have a BBQ or something like that...get a hold of me on this site if this interests you.
