In the very near future, I won’t be living in Paris – or anywhere in France – anymore. I will be in Qatar, joining him, finally. I’m scratching my head, wondering whether Qatari immigration will let Bruno the Plant pass through. Also, I’m having a hard time deciding what to bring and what to put into storage. 200 kgs isn’t much, when you think about it.

huh? Qatar? But I thought…
Anyway, I’m still jealous…
I have a friend who lives there with her Austrian husband, she says the wealth around her is simply breathtaking…
We were ((this)) close to moving to Bahrain ourselves sometime ago…but no, not close enough ~sigh~
All the best!!!

looneyinbarnsley> Thanks, I’m super excited too! There’s really something about living in a totally different country, no? I mean a country that neither you nor your husband grew up in. I love the idea of being lost in another language and culture. Anyway, I’m sure your Escape is just around the corner. If it wasn’t Bahrain, then it’s somewhere else. You are too fabulous for Barnsley!!!
