Michael Morpurgo: My life in travel

I first went to France in 1948.

I would have been about four or five and I was enchanted by it because it was the first foreign place I'd ever been to where the food was different and everything smelt different and looked different. It was war-damaged; there were lots of holes in the road. And there were great steam trains coming into the towns alongside the docks. It was a very atmospheric place.
