Hello,
Its my first time this forum and I'm seeking advice on where to settle around Lyon for 12 months with an active 6 and 8 year old. We will arrive in December 2017.
We are Australians wanting the french experience and to learn the language as best we can. The children will go to a french primary school - recommendations of good ecole elementaire or areas to avoid are much appreciated .
Our wish list is somewhere around Lyon that's
- within 45mins of the city of Lyon or closer
- village like settling that feels very traditionally french
- cafes and restaurants and ideally a farmers market nearby
- access to public transport.
- Green space for our active kids
- walking distance to local boulangerie etc
Does such a place exist? If not, I'd love to hear your experiences of the next best thing around Lyon!
We are not restricted to an area of France by our work. So other suggestions on places to live with kids are welcome!
Kind regards from Australia,
Kerrie
