The people you meet For such a short journey from France to Ireland, you sure did meet some interesting people! That to me is one of the best parts of travel, connecting with people from all over the world, and each one with a story worth telling.
Thank you for sharing! Thank you for sharing this with us. A very good collection of photos and some more info about traveling in France.

Merci beaucoup, Frankie ! It was the nice road trip in France.
I've met her by exchange work site and she is really passionate!
I'm traveling by myself and I'd like to see the life in the local area. Before I was planning to take a bus to heading to my next place then she suggested this trip. So I paid the fee (same fare) to her. I took a lot of photos on the way and I made la tarte auxpeches for our lunch.
The good things is I could lean many things in France on the way. I'm such a lucky Japanese tourist :)
Hanau, Germany I lived in Hanau on Old Argonner Kaserne back in the 70's, these photos brought back a lot of fond memories. Thank you for posting them.

Kind regards,

Sweet Memories I lived in Stoke on Trent from Sep. 2008 to Sep. 2009. I am a government officer in China. I was dispatched and studied MBA in Staffordshire University from 2008 to 2009. Stoke on Trent leaved me impressive memories for its peace and harmony, fresh air and bone china culture. I have been lived the sweet memories when I studied in Stoke on Trent. The photos arouse my sweet memories for Stoke on Trent. Thank you.
Hanau I stumbled upon your travel blog of a couple of years ago but was delighted to see the photos and comments regarding Hanau. I was fortunate to be stationed in Hanau in the U.S. Army from 1969 - 1971. It was a great place to be and I truly had a great experience during that time. This had brought back a lot of good memories for me and I am glad that I found it.

anonymous request You advertise for your area as a nice place to live, We are senior American Citizens who do not speak France but would like to learn. If your area is "rural, would we be able to study French language there? Is it Safe, easy to find apartment, not expensive to live there? Appreciate your advice.
Thanks.
Frankie's reply: No, there's no facility to study French in my rural area except for new immigrants
enjoying your trip Hi, just want to say I'm enjoying your road trip. I haven't been on an adventure in years so I'm glad to go along on yours. Good descriptions about the scenery but how about local food? It'd be interesting to hear your views on what good or bad meals you're having and what they are, like I'm thinking there must be a lot of good seafood in Scotland? Enjoy!
A vintage woman traveller, French born, currently living in France, I really enjoy going places by car, by train, by sailboat or by plane...
I have also lived in England, Israel, Australia, New Caledonia, New Zealand and North America.
