Bonne nuit Yalousa. Pas des cauchemare, eh!

OK let us see which parts of France people love most-

I know Paris, been there several times and it is my favorite big city. But most of all I love the countryside. The Auvergne is neat, especially when you travel southward and reach the summit and start descending southwards. You leave behind the country of fresh cream and wheat, and you suddenly see cypress trees, vignards and olive groves. "Ici c'est le pay du vin" said a French guy, and you really feel it. Wine country, Mediterranean!

Then further south is Roussillon which I also know well, a little village Lodeve, where I met an olive skinned lady with silver ear rings. And from there to the French Spanish border it reminds me of Cyprus, or rather what Cyprus would be if we took care of it.

Eastwards to the Italian border is more affluent, grand. Nice and Cannes are magnificent. And if you turn north a few miles you come to lavender country, an area as big as Mesaoria planted with lavender and othe raromatic herbs. The town of Grasse is the perfume center of France and one of the neatest places on earth.

Monte Carlo is not France legally but pretty similar and the place just reeks of money. All nouveau riche Cypriots should be forced to spend a day in Monte Carlo to cut them down to size.

So what is your favorite place in France? In case you have not guessed, I love the place.

I have never been to France, but it sounds fab, so for sure I will go one day and stay with my realitives there as I have heard alot about their petite cottage!
Also a great opportunity to learn the language further...

My French sucks, so I hardly understand what you people are talking about. Thanks for the information. I will probably go to another European country next year. I loved France, met some real inspiring people. I should really settle down now though

Once you work out what a Casino is you'll be fine.

Baby you like Tavel? The world's only classed rose wine. I love it, but never seem to find it. Such a heady aroma, some say it is like drinking flowers. Now what more romantic drink than that can there be!

I have not tried it, I trust you will source this wine!!!

Baby I higly recommend it.

It is a big country, and everyone has a favorite region, but their Mediterranean regions are a revelation. Imagine Cyprus really looked after, cleaned up, the rough edges softened and loved by the people who live there. That is southern France.

I think I must go there soon. Been away too long.

For you Baby I wil lhave it flown on the next Air France flight!

I got some huge lecture today about finding a woman and not being fussy, it kind of depresses me just thinking about it.

[Nikitas]

You mean not being fussy in general or not being fussy about the woman?

If you are not fussy about the woman you will live with for the rest of your life, what can you be fussy about?

I knew you were talking about the south of France!
It sounds lovely as does the wine

Try to get there in May, early June, when the flowers are in bloom. Nothing can compare to the scent of a lavender field.
