Thanks to FB and Google Earth I already feel at home there.
They even have their own glasto/womad festival...
And it's a ferry ride from Brest ...
I'm signing up to all the local FB groups and starting to make some real connections.
It's an unusual place - lots of second homes - so a lot of my neighbours will come and go - pros and cons with that - I will hopefully make some friends from outside the area ...
The exact spot I'm focussing on actually has a bit of a village left - and the whole peninsula has actual life going on.
I reckon it will suit me very well and will be appreciated as a permanent resident and (eventually) bilingual in a holiday area - though I'm not allowed to work.
I will be signing up for volunteering.
I have to get away from this house and this life.
My fallback position is a far less impressive life in Swansea ...
