In most British departments in France (8,000 of them live in Dordogne), English has become scarce in recent months. Health crises and border restrictions have prevented many Britons who own a second home or visit their families frequently from coming to Toronto. In the summer, at Berkerac Airport, many arrive after several months or two years..

“Good to be back”
Louisa, Benjamin, Raphael and Edward have been looking forward to this moment for over a year. Just before the restrictions begin in the UK, look for their home in the Berkerak vineyards they left last summer. “For many years, we came on Easter, school holidays, summer vacations. So for us France has been a part of our lives! It’s good to be back. _It’s like life is paused, and finally we can press the play button again_“, Laughs Louisa, Mom.
