My red Clio


It’s SO cute and red!! and so easy to drive even as a stick shift! I love all the stereo controls at the wheel. And it's small, I can zip around and park anywhere in no time...

It's been busy, fun and scary with all the stuff we have to buy, all the decisions, the cleaning, not to mention getting acquainted with spiders and owls which had taken over the house for the last 2 years... My main complaint is the 3 weeks it takes to get internet access set up (!) which is making us commute between my parents’ place so I can work and back here to set things up. One week’s already passed, two more to go…got to adjust to the new pace here. On the plus side we’re eating tons of cheese and drinking wine like water:) And I love being back into the french mood: the cheesy songs on the radio, the news on tv that starts to talk about the summer migration that happens every year as people take off for the beach, but above all being around my mom and her extraordinary cooking.

Love the car! Clios are great racing cars -- we saw some fun races in the UK. It's so freakin' cute!
