Welcome to Our Irregular Dispatch From French Life
This isn't your average newsletter. It’s the honest, occasionally ridiculous, behind-the-scenes look at what it's really like for two Americans and a Golden Retriever to move to France. Whether you’re a daydreamer, a planner, or already knee-deep in French paperwork, this is the one email you’ll actually look forward to.
Start from the beginning or with the most recent. Hell, you can even pick any story that catches your eye.

Savoring the Chaos: Issue No. 14
Paris has a way of testing you all day and then, just when you’re ready to leave, setting the table and reminding you why you stayed.
Savoring the Chaos: Issue No. 5
Honestly? A chipped front tooth looked better than a Bond villain cosplay.
