FranceOn september 2005, I moved back to France. On September 2008 I returned to the United States. Why? To be closer to my children and  because I missed the States too much.

I was Borned and raised in Villefranche-sur-Saône which lies 1 mile (1.6 km) west of the Saône River, and is around 25 kilometres (16 mi)north of Lyon in the region of Rhône-Alpes. The inhabitants of the town are called Caladois. Villefranche-sur-Saône was founded in 1212 by Guichard IV, count of Beaujeu, and became in the 14th century the capital of the Beaujolais province. It endured three sieges in the 15th and 16th centuries. The town walls were taken down early in the 19th century. The polution is around 35,000.
