ABOUT THE AREA Bredasdorp is a small Overberg town located in the Western Cape Province in South Africa. Bredasdorp, economic capital of the Cape Agulhas Region, was established around a Dutch Reformed Church in 1838 and is still strongly founded in its agricultural roots. The town was named after Cape Town's first major, Michiel van Breda, also known as the father of South Africa’s merino sheep industry. Van Breda and Pieter Voltelyn van der Byl, could not agree where the church should be built. As a result two churches were built, and two towns, Bredasdorp and Napier, were established. This town with its population of 22 000 is the centre of the Region’s wheat producing area; Bredasdorp serves largely the local agricultural community. Besides sheep farming, the town also boasts other agricultural activities, including wheat, canola, milk, and indigenous fynbos cultivation. The town is also the location of the offices of Kapula Candles, an international candle company that exports hand-painted candles to Europe and the United States. The population of the town got a boost during the middle 1980's with the establishment of both the Test Flight & Development Centre (South African Air Force) as well as the Overbreg Test Range (Denel) near the small coastal village of Arniston. Development in the town is very rapid, with a number of prominent South African business franchises opening their doors during 2009 and 2010.

Location in France: The Charente Department, Department number 16, is home to over 350,000 inhabitants and is located in the south-east of Poitou-Charentes. The countryside offers a unique and varied environment for walkers and mountain bikers from rolling hills in the east to a flatter landscape in the west. The northern area is wilder with deep forests and peaks reaching to over 1,000ft. The Charente has long relied on agriculture to fuel its economy. In the 18th Century, however, the department started mass producing its infamous Cognac drink, which proved extremely popular with people from all over the world. There are many medieval towns in and around the Charente and Richard the Lionheart passed through this area on his way to the Crusades. The department is very well situated for expatriates looking to purchase French property here, with major roads connecting the Charente to the Channel ports just a short day’s drive away. The department has access to Poitiers, La Rochelle, Bordeaux, Bergerac and Limoges airports, all within 2 hours. Angouleme is a small yet cosmopolitan city, with a fairly dynamic feel about the place when compared to the neighbouring Dordogne or Haute Vienne. It hosts a lot of events such its vintage car racing (the Circuit des Remparts) which takes place annually in September, the cartoon festival in January and a great music scene which just seems to get better every year. There are river restaurants, canoeing and boating on the Charente river at Angouleme. Both Cognac and Confolens have annual festivals which attract tourists to the area. The Charente has an immensely varied countryside bordering 5 departments, famous for both its Cognac vineyards in the west, and its Limousin beef production in the east, which in terms of scenery are worlds apart. The valley of the Charente River meanders down from Ruffec in the north through Angouleme onto Jarnac and Cognac. Confolens in the East of the department is situated on the banks of the majestic River Vienne, this area being known as the Charente Limousine, and is extremely popular with expatriates because it looks and feels like the UK. The west of the Department borders the Charente Maritime and the seaside coast around La Rochelle and Royan but has less undulating scenery.

People always say that the province of Overijssel is the Netherlands, only in miniature. The northwest is an area rich in water and turf. The west is a very flat agricultural region while the south has many hills and rivers. The "Kop van Overijssel" is the main area for water recreation. The nature reserves here are ideal for cycling and kayaking. Near the park there are many paved cycling routes which provide the perfect way to explore the beautiful Vecht and Reestdal. Next to the park there is the "Dedem" cycling route. The "Reestdal" route is only 4km away. These beautiful routes provide you with a good view of the area. The easy going atmosphere of the countryside is characteristic of this region. You can also visit one of the many theme parks in the area like: Ponypark Slagharen (4km), Hellendoorn adventure park (20km), Noorder Dierenpark Emmen (20km) or Walibi World (50km). There are also many gardens and museums in the area like Mien Ruys' Gardens (4km), Ada Hofman's pond gardens (10km), Tin Man Museum (10km), Ecodrome (30km) or the museum of Anton Pieck in Hattem (45km). If you like castles and estates, you can visit Kasteel Rechteren or Kasteel Eerde.
