The business sold today and my wife and I are free to live our dream. We are moving to Europe! We have been searching for a little town in Europe to live in. We are partial to France because we enjoy Paris so much. Every day after work we sit together on the couch and Google places in France, and houses for sale in France. We quickly discovered there is a large premium for living near Paris. We decided on finding a town in Normandy that would satisfy our needs. It had to be within a few hours of Paris, it must be affordable, and the hope of finding at least a few people that spoke English. We searched the Google maps and toured the towns using Google street view.
We discovered the little town of Bagnoles de l'Orne in Normandie, France. Three hours west of Paris, the town is a beautiful little tourist town with hot springs and spas as its main attraction. Fresh flowers abound in every direction and the houses are right out of a fairy tale. They are described as Belle Epoch, and the town is known for its own architectural style.
The next step of course was to go there in person and begin house hunting in France.
