An oldster
Hi,
I'm not exactly a newbie as an expat, since I've been living in France for the past 42 years; however, I've only just found this site. I live in Lyon, the city that wants people to think it's the centre of the universe and will soon be up there with heaving metropolises such as London, Mumbai or Rio. God help us. I also have an old house in La Loire (the département, not the river). I teach English (well, what else) and if anyone needs advice on living here I might be able to help.

Thank you for your offer...after living in France for 42 years you must have a wealth of information to share. We have a lively France Forum...why don't you pop over there take a look around and say hello?
If you have any problems finding your way around the rest of the site Ka Ora is the concierge for the France forums...he will act as your tour guide and help you find your way around BE's many forums.
Any problems or complaints should be addressed to a moderator. Mitzyboy is the moderator for the France forums but if he's not around any mod or admin will be pleased to help you.
I hope your enjoy your time with us. Please shout out if you need help with anything.
