Yes French Canadian and no never crossed the Atlantic yet.
But it's definitely in our plans! I want to see Scotland in particular. So then it's going to look exactly as I imagined it? Maybe I can just do that siting here and save the money.
If you are French-Canadian, (which you are), you would love France. I love France, and the further south you go, the better it gets. Northern France is more politically correct, while the south is laid back. It is because of the long summers and short winters, and southern France can be very hot in the summer. Everything takes time. I have travelled the length of the southern coast from Italy to Spain, (and beyond). However, it is not only France, (but), all of Western Europe. We have something in common because I used to live in Canada, in the Toronto area, (and yes), I have travelled coast-to-coast. Travel has always been my weakness in life, a natural "Wanderer". One thing you may find hard to believe. When I began learning Zen, my outlook changed regarding travel, and travelling. I now travel in "Zen". Or, whenever I travel, I make no plans. No schedules or anything pre-planned. You arrive at railway station somewhere, look at the departures board, and buy a ticket to the next destination. The best way to travel. The "Zen of Travel". Come to Europe Patrick, you would love it. You do not know what you are missing, and it is more sophisticated than North America, (that is not meant as a putdown). Europe is more sophisticated because of thousands of years of culture. I should be working for the European Union as a travel agent?
