Lucky you!! I can only imagine how great it was growing up in the Cotswolds...

I was born in Leon (Spain) and lived in both Leon and Valladolid until I turned 20. Then moved to Solihull on my own and stayed for 11 years and, as most of you know, I'm now in sunny Colorado...

It's nice to read about where you all come from...
