Following Mike Jago's article in April 2008 edition of the
MMM, I would like to relate our experience of France Passion. We started about
6 years ago and have always been treated so well at any site we stayed on.
One was a chicken farm in Brittany where, we bonded immediately with
the owners and have been great friends ever since. We are always taken into the
house for evening meals, send greetings cards etc. Recently the farmer's wife
was killed in a car accident so, as we now live in France, we dashed down to the farm
to comfort our friend.
Our tip is: Plan your route as to your needs. If you require
eggs, meat, vegetables, milk etc, organise your route to incorporate these
farms en route. We always bought produce, at least to the value of a camp site
fee, wherever we stayed.It worked so
well - enough for us to fall in love with France and its way of life.
