A Life in France. Lived Well
We sold a perfectly good life and moved to a 250-year-old winery in rural France.
We thought we were starting over. It turned out we were starting from scratch.
Come in. I'll show you.
Every now and then, France reminds us why we came.
Get Frenched
Get Frenched is a clear-eyed, lived-in guide to what actually matters when you’re thinking about moving to France.
Not the fantasy. Not the Instagram version. The parts that decide whether the life you’re imagining actually works. Told honestly, without pretending it has to be grim to be useful.
“I just wanted to let you know how fantastic and invaluable your book/blueprint is and thank you for the obvious time and effort you put into it. You paint the full picture, and make sure your reader is aware of the rewards but also the hurdles they face in this potential adventure. In my mind, it is a masterpiece.”
Our Irregular Dispatch From French Life
Every couple of weeks, another story arrives in your inbox.
Not a newsletter in the usual sense. More like pulling up a chair, pouring a glass of wine, and hearing what happened this time.
Some stories are funny. Some are frustrating. Some begin with a perfectly reasonable plan and end somewhere neither of us saw coming. Others have less to do with France than they do with the strange business of starting over.
They're all true. And together, they tell the story of what it's really like to leave one life behind and build another in rural France.
If you'd like to come along, drop your email below. I promise I'll never sell or share it.
