Join us on the terrace where the August 20 Apero Party is in full swing. When I thought about having the apero party, I chose August 20 because it always seems to be an epiphany day for me when I'm in France.
Whether it's dancing the ballet to Mozart on butterfly wings in Tour de Faure, or sitting on my Chatette's terrace in the rain, in my overalls, watching my snails; there is always some huge aha for me. On this evening surrounded by the friends and neighbors I am closest to; I realized that this is the life I choose. I belong here. I've been accepted here in a way that I would have never dreamed possible.
An evening of special moments, special people, in my place in the sun that sings with happiness and joy in the village and up and down the Lot. This, is my home. This, is my life. This is where I am my very best self.
Oh, millions of congratulations to you, I think it is the first time I hear you saying it so clearly, you are your overalls, you are your barn, you are your chatette, you really are yourself! and perhaps it's not accidentally that it happens when you turn 60! Since I turned 60 5 years ago, I feel my life has had much more direction than before! more confident about what to do and what not to do, although money, family etc. etc. may delay the progress ! here Bodil and I are enjoying the rain coming today after successful liming the walls yesterday. It was hard work, but it worked and it is good that it rains now, so the lime dries slowly. I bet you are busy now packing down for the next 4 months, take care, love Niels and Bodil
