Hi Pinot
I live in Canberra which is the capital of Australia. It has a population of around 350 000 and has hot summers (normally but not this year) and cool winters but not cold enough to snow. Public transport here is fairly good but as the city is very spread out it can take a while to go to the other side of the city. There is alot of green spaces in Canberra, with native bush and animals, they call us the bush capital. My home is also 4 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, brick and tile with a nice yard and in a quiet street. I have one LQS 10 minutes a way and another 4 within 30 minutes drive, but I buy most of my fabric online.
My husband and I own our own business so I work from home doing the book keeping as well as being as involved as I can with our 2 children.
I would also like to learn more about France
