A Cottage ? A Gite ? A Flat ?

Would you like this to be your front door ? With twin swings on the porch ? I would. I want this house. It is tiny, it has a big yard, gardens and is in a lovely town . A perfect little house for two people and a dog.
My apartment is a perfect apartment for two people and a dog also. But the city life is wearing on me and I find myself browsing real estate websites, for houses that are in small towns with trees, lots of trees. Probably a lot of snow in the winter, but a lovely house with a fireplace makes up for a lot. Summers, gardens, flea markets and farmers markets and outdoor concerts, it all is very appealing to me today.
Especially the part about everything being in English.
I am not sure if it would be as perfect if it were in French, but I probably would not mind trying it .

A flat in Paris would be nice but I have this thing lately for gardens and fresh air. As long as I can take a train in to Paris, how bad would that be ?
I think it is time to have a talk with The Husband. Pup says he can be packed in 15 minutes .

Very nice. I also thought of decorating that porch when the holidays came around and pots with flowers... what I would plant in the gardens. I am almost moved in !
