[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What does “extremely well traveled” mean? I have been to more than 120 countries and would never say something so obnoxious![/quote]

This is your contribution to the thread - a (humble?) brag, gratuitous insult to OP, and absolutely nothing helpful or relevant to the question?

OP, I’m most familiar with France of the options you’ve listed, but I’d personally look somewhere in the Alps within an hour or two of Geneva, particularly if you like to ski. It’s a gorgeous area, Geneva is easy to get to and provides access to an international airport with direct flights from the East Coast, and it’s really beautiful. Would also consider Northern Italy around Milan.[/quote]

Oh! Switzerland is a great idea. Love it there. Plus, a lot people speak English there. You can chose whether you want to live in the French, Italian or German speaking parts.[/quote]

Switzerland has a lot of restrictions on foreigners buying property, getting residence permits, etc. You need at least some level of one of the languages to be able to deal with the local bureaucracy, etc. [/quote]
