I'm not sure if there are many Scandinavians in the area, but I do hear a lot of British accents at the markets.<br />Look into joining the AVF in Bayeux for connecting with others and good luck with your move!Jenniferhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18245742506531002363noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20775625.post-41257354003744323822013-02-03T18:51:36.566+01:002013-02-03T18:51:36.566+01:00Hi:) Where in Normandy do u live?

I`m 31 and wondering if it is easy to find a network of friends there in my age? Is there a lot of englishmen and scandinavians living there? Hope you will reply in a comment on my blog or via mail :) thanks :)j a k s p a p e rhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08997953251133651349noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20775625.post-42053452219280547852012-10-24T10:06:07.068+02:002012-10-24T10:06:07.068+02:00Carla
