About me

Gender Female
Location Trelou sur Marne, Picardie, France
Introduction I'm a 20-something Antipodean serial expat who is now living "la vie francaise" after yanking her partner out of the heat and humidity of sub tropical Australia and dragging him kicking and screaming back to his childhood home in a small village on the border of Champagne and Picardie. Join me on a champagne-filled adventure as I try to overcome the language barrier, my many cultural faux pas and my adversion to cheek kissing and all forms of offal.
