When someone suggested that I should write a “blog” I had to ask what a “blog” was. The idea sounded like fun so here I go!
This first blog is, I hope, the most difficult to write. I have tried several alternatives. In the end, if I am going to share my experiences you probably need to know, who I am, and how I came to be living in Le Marche, writing this “Bridget Jonesey” account of life in a medieval Le Marche hilltop village.
I was raised as a Christian, neither Catholic nor Protestant. My maternal grandfather was a Minister in the Church of England but my parents believe simply in God, who created everything and then sent his son Jesus to suffer and die for our sins. We were not taken to church. God was everywhere and what was important was believing, and being good, honest, kind, generous etc towards others.
