10 weeks in Oxford
« on: December 18, 2015, 04:52:26 PM »
Hi My husband and I are looking into a teaching abroad opportunity. We are looking at Oxford, Paris or Florence. We have been to Oxford a few times and enjoyed it as a vacation.. and the surrounding areas(my parents were English). He will be busy. Im wondering what will I do for ten weeks? is there a community for me to play with?  Gyms to go to.. I see I cannot volunteer anywhere.   What to do?...also for the two of us to go out with.

I can't really help you......it's been almost 30 years since I spent time around Oxford. But as a bit of joke......do NOT watch the tv show Lewis. Everybody does not die in Oxford.

Hi coxbox, welcome!

You say your parents were English. Were they British otherwise than by descent?
If so, I think you may be British yourself.
