You may have noticed there is a new addition to the left sidebar. There is an RSS feed to my writing on Hub Pages. Hub Pages is a site where you can earn money by writing about things you know. They run your own Google ads on the site and allow you to add your own affiliate links for Amazon and eBay. I don’t think it will net me a huge amount of money but I have already earned a little bit there. At first I will probably rewrite some older posts but I will also write about things that are not really related to France or having moved to and lived in France. I am trying to focus this blog again on the experience of moving to and living in France.

Hub Pages is free to join. If you would like to try your hand at writing over there go for it. Click on this link and I’ll get credit for referring you. To read articles on Hub Pages you don’t need to be a member so if you would like to see my profile and articles click here. You might want to browse the site to see what is there.

BTW a hub is just a piece of writing centered around a topic. A hubber is someone who writes for Hub Pages. Scores help see which hubber is popular. Not popular in a junior high kind of way though. If you look at the writing of popular hubbers, the stories tend to be more interesting and well written, so start with those if you like. Anyway, I sometimes find answers to questions over there better than a Google search.

ToulouseImage from WikipediaI have been teaching English at l’École Nationale d’Aviation Civile here in Toulouse for the last 6 weeks. Just 2 weeks ago I saw a bunch of people climbing around the roofs everyday. They had blowtorches and plants. It was a strange sight. The school already looks straight out of a 60′s spy movie. Over the next few days it became clear they were installing a green roof. I only had my camera phone the day they finished so you cannot see up close the roof but I think you can see the plants sprouting on the green roof. It is going to be very nice.

Green Roof another shot Green Roof
