When two giants occupy a tiny cottage with eye-catching pink shutters, surrounded by vivacious founts of enchantment, there’s bound to be some enthralling stories behind.

On our website, a digital reflection of our French lives, I write about the bewildered wonders that befell us when we chose to embrace a less demanding yet more challenging lifestyle, mainly by downsizing and keeping our choices and their ensued options as rudimentary as possible, swapping various rat-races for an everyday poetry that harks back to our past as much as to an optimistic future.



Would love to hear what you think!

Hi,
I'd call it "personal and intimacy reflections of some person who happens to live in a cottage".
I guess it's liberating for yourself and surely you must have a good audience, but it's not my cup of taste. My sense of aesthetics is completely dumb.

Frank, welcome to the forum!

I love the pink shutters, matching pink flowers, and the cute pooch.

Thank you for your comment. Taste is non debatable anyway...
