I’m going to leave the USA first a while.
Got to get outside first a breath of fresh air.

I’m thinking spring in the south of France, near the sea. Or Spain, or Portugal.

I’m thinking a nice 30 to 60 day vacation. I’d love to find a quiet spot, with a local to teach me the language a few hours a day, maybe three times a week. Someplace where the sun will shine by May.

Any ideas of a best spot? Where should I go?
