House-hunting preparation

As we begin to start looking at more permanent homes, we went to have a look around a town, on the hillside opposite Euronews, called Sainte-Foy-les-Lyon.

It had some amazing views of Lyon

It was a very nice suburb and was very quiet. But it has some great views of Lyon – you could even see the green cube.

St Foy – or St Faith – was murdered by the Romans for refusing to carry out pagan sacrifices in around 287BC in Aquitaine. She was tortured to death with a red hot brazier. But if you can look past that, the neighbourhood seemed quite nice.

There’s my place of work

We then drove down into the centre of Lyon. It took about five minutes until we were right in the heart of the city.
