Sad in France, what should I do?

I was born in Eastern Europe, to a prominent, well off family. I had a very influential, well known god father, too. For political reasons my father Philip and my mother Hanna left my native country and moved to Romania, and I moved to Sweden, where I studied philosophy and metaphysics, Latin and European languages at the Lund University. Then I moved to Germany and became a lieutenant in the cavalry guard of Saxony, but our political enemies asked for my extradition, so I moved to Poland, and then to France, where I met prominent people (Fleury, Leszczyński) and entered French diplomatic service. I travelled to Turkey, Sweden and Crimea and helped Monsieur Leszczyński a lot (though later on he lost what I gained for him, which is not my fault). I received a lot of monetary compensation from French government, as well as distinctions, met French most prominent people (like Monsieur Arouet). I married a very nice French girl, Mademoiselle de Dinteville, she was well of, but then, so was I. We became comte et comtesse de Broglie. I am respected by French people, and have everything I want. But, I feel bored, and I miss my native country badly (all the French people who visited it agreed that it was the most beautiful country in the world, with its blue sky, golden fields, wonderful food and culture and people). I have nothing much more to do in France, can't bond with locals, and they persist in calling me "Russian" which annoys me greatly, so what should I do?
