Hello, I was born in the Netherlands but I have lived most of my life in France because I married a Frenchman who has recently passed away. I have three children and five grand-children. I'm retired now but liked my job as an English/French teacher so I still help (foreign) students out on a weekly basis. I love reading, languages and art, I like drawing and painting as a hobby. I also like gardening, swimming and walking my dog in the beautiful surroundings of my home.
