I am french and I find your forum fascinating. Many users offer good and clever advice but I am a little puzled at the fact that a few of you do not give Research beforehand any sort of value, it really puzzle me I must say, it is strange, especially when you buy a Gites complex ! One question to the people here who are not familiar with France when they decide to come here: why not rent for a few months and then they can see themself if it works and how the people are ? But to everybody, I hope that you are well received and do not pay attention to the few 'abrutis' (idiots) you may meet, if you learn the language and seek to take part in the french life, most people will love you
