12 weeks away

It’s now been 12 weeks since we left Sweden to drive down to the Dordogne area in France for our first house sit as “professionals”. And what a great time we’ve had; many new places, lots of nice people, wonderful food, many laughters, good movies, new words and sayings, lovely houses, sweet and challenging pets…

Let’s just say we’ve gotten a lot of what we were thinking of in beforehand – change and different experiences, new knowledge and a broader view of ourselves, our life and the world at large.
