Hi - I'd be happy to meet you in Montpellier, except be aware that the 8th is a national holiday, so no school or work and many places are closed. Send me a private message and we'll see what's possible. Kind regards, Dennelle

Hmm, guess you heard it's been raining in Paris :) I'll be excited to hear where you end up! I've enjoyed visiting all those cities except Nimes -- haven't made it there yet. BTW, on Sunday mornings, a bunch of expats get together at a classic LeftBank cafe. Laid back and fun. You're always welcome -- for the price of a coffee... . Ellen

The city everyone who posts here seems to ignore, Ron. P-a-r-i-s. . . . :) Some Sunday a.m. attendees are temporary ex-pats, in town for a week, a few weeks or a month. Details on request, of course! ellen

Aaah! Thanks, Ellen. I was confused since revshep did not mention P-a-r-i-s.
We will be there for a few days in Oct on our way to Nîmes. Sadly, not on a Sunday but it sounds great. I'd like that.
Thanks again, Ellen

Hello Margaret and Earl, We're not in one of the five towns you list but we are an American couple who retired to France in 2015. We are in Cannes and thoroughly enjoying our sunny retirement. Happy to answer any U.S.-to-France questions you might have, as we are now fully integrated into our life in our adopted country...Good luck, Tony and Michele

Thanks Tony and Michele, we appreciate your response and would be very interested in connecting. It doesn't seem Nice will fit our travel plans this trip, but next trip we will be in full retirement and more flexible. I will PM you with details of our goals and plans and perhaps you'll be generous enough to respond with your thoughts, and perhaps share your own experiences. Thanks and best wishes.

Oops! My apologies, I thought you are in Nice and re-read your post to see you are in Cannes. I sent a PM with that error. We haven't visited Cannes so the only editing required is your correct location.

Oh yes, there are English speaking doctors in Cannes. In fact you can pretty much find English-anything-you-want in Cannes.

hi again Tony and Michele;
Hope to see you on a future trip which will include Cannes. Meanwhile have read that the "wealth tax" has been revised or in a sense repealed, as has the law requiring that any French resident dying there must pass on inheritances to his or her children. Do you know of these changes? They have been a concern and possible barrier for us. Thanks... margaret and earl

I don’t work for a relocation firm, am just a retired American living in France. Would be happy to meet with you in Montpellier and share my own experiences with you. Let me know if you’re interested.
