Francophiles - living in France!

Are there many Silver Surfers who have retired to France permanently during the last few years? We had a place in the south of France for 3 years during early retirement...sold it c.2006 because it seemed to be getting busier each year and we wished we had bought further north once we had visited all the local sites...a more rural environment being more us!


However it was fun whilst it lasted! Now I am on my own I still have a yen to go back to France for visits...probably Brittany area as never went beyond Normandy then south.


If you live there now how do you think Brexit will affect you (if it ever happens!@) and do you plan to stay?


Interested to chat with any Brits living in France if they have the time!
