Nine months in a French town

by anne_o_apple - last update: Nov 27, 2004

View from the house
Saint-Rémy-lès-Chevreuse lies in Yvelines, the 78th French département. There are about 6,000 people, and a boulanger with yummy baguettes (food kinda baguette... ;) St. Remy is in the national park Vallée de Chevreuse, so the scenery is amazing.
Stairs up to the house
The walk from the house to the train station was about 20 - 25 minutes. The walk back however... I started to hate those hills... and the stairs! But hey, it's beautiful... the hills, the trees, the flowers... It smelled like heaven for a few weeks during spring. I don't know what it was, must have been a combination of trees and flowers, but I'm sure that if heaven exists, that's what it will smell like.
The little house
I fell in love with this little house. I walked past it every time I was going to the school, to Paris, to my French classes, basically whenever I was going anywhere. It's small and cute and with those windows it just looks like it's opening up to you.

Pros:"Close to Paris, but still has the small town atmosphere"
Cons:"Almost need to know the language"
In A Nutshell:"Beautiful and quiet."
