Hey, I love that you are enjoying the blog and that you have questions. I especially love "Where are you?" It's a question we have asked ourselves a few times this holiday! That and why on earth are we driving a manual car with a dodgy sat-nav!!!!! Always happy to answer more questions, hear your comments and find out about what you are doing.
Where are you?
This little map shows some of the places we have visited. Trausse is very close to Carcassonne, sitting roughly 25 kilometre directly northeast of the famous medieval walled city. It's tucked into the southern foothills of the Montagne Noire. In relation to Toulouse: Toulouse is the major regional hub, situated much further to the west-northwest. Trausse lies approximately 115 kilometres east-southeast of Toulouse.
Our neighbor Lynn kindly welcomed Jill from the UK and settled her into our apartment (bravo, Lynn!). Jill has really embraced Sydney life, making full use of the ferries, buses, and metros to explore music, theater, markets, and to celebrate Christmas in July.
Jill has been invited to join our friends for dinner, so she will get to know even more about life in Oz. We will meet up with Jill in Yorkshire in August and hear all about her adventures!
Our friends Erin and Milton are off sketching in Ireland while we housesit for them here in Trausse. They made sure we had great contacts in the village so we can join in with lots of social events while we are here. We will meet up with them when they visit Sydney later this year.
Is it true that you can order a coffee at the bar and bring your cake from the pâtisserie?
Absolument ! Quite often cafés/bars will serve hot and cold drinks, but they will send you across the road to buy something special from the pâtisserie to have with your drink!
