Default Looking for English natives around Avignon or Carpentras (Vaucluse)

Hi everyone,

My name is Florence, I am a French native freelance translator living near Avignon, in the South East of France.
I have lived in UK for a few years and therefore speak English fluently, but since I left GB more than 10 years ago, I haven't had the opportunity to practice my oral English (only written English as part of my daily job). I miss it a lot and would love to meet English natives living around here to have informal chats now and then. This would allow me to practice a bit and in exchange, I could help with French, or even provide assistance with any procedures, administrative stuff, etc.
Anyone interested, please contact me!

Florence

Hi Stu!

Thanks for your reply, unfortunately, Salon is a bit far from where I live. But if you ever come to Avignon some day, I'll be happy to meet you!

Hi there Folrence,

I'm English and live in Carpentras with my husband and I'd be happy to get together for a chat if you like?

Hi Florence.


My name is Joshua Good and I'm working down here in Provence. I started in December, have been home for christmas and have just got back to a place near Vanesque/Carpantras(yesterday), and will be here possibly until May!!

I work outside and I am building a garden for a client and am now looking at getting some help with French as my french speaking is sooo poor it's nearly non existent! I would like to learn the basics first and foremost and, well, I'm not sure!

I work lots so evenings are good for me, I dont know if you may like to go for a chat, maybe give me some advice on finding a teacher or just get me out of the house for an hour and have a giggle and talk English at me!

I was looking on the net for some french teachers and found your advert and just thought i'd send u a quick email!

I hope that you are well. Oh! Happy new year!
(SNIP)

Regards Josh
