His first attempt at growing wine trees.
The next blog, I'm not sure if they are ex-pats yet, but describes the adventures in buying a home away from Blighty.
Our Adventure in Croatia
"Having lived most of our lives in a chaotic, cosmopolitan, exciting, attractive, great European capital city like London, we often wondered what if we could own a property abroad, where we could spend lots of holidays and “quality time” in a warmer climate, where the sky is not always grey and overcast." - From the About page.
Stories cover adventures with policemen, taxi drivers and Google's street view car, so there's plenty to read here.
That's their house, the one with the red shutters and the washing outside.
Both blogs well worth reading.
Thank you very much for adding my little blog. For me writing the blog is just a bit of fun and I love the interaction between other bloggers.
ReplyDeleteI notice you have added http://adventureincroatia.wordpress.com to your blog, I think she is as mad as a hatter but don’t tell her.
Damn, I do that all the time, that was supposed to be a 'rely'.
Delete>englishmanititaly, My pleasure, you are quite right, writing the posts is only half the fun. Mad as a Hatter she maybe, but I love her writing style, almost mercurious.
