It’s not the croissants that get you. It’s the chaos.
Most people think moving to France is about finding the right village or buying a cute stone house with blue shutters. That’s the fun part.
What actually takes people down?
-
Visas that get denied because of one missing paper.
-
Bureaucrats who don’t care how badly you want it.
-
Banks that move slower than a French lunch.
-
Cars, healthcare, taxes, culture shocks… the list is long.
I’ve seen dreamers get flattened before they even unpack a suitcase. And that’s a shame, because living here really is incredible — if you survive the gauntlet.
Not everyone who picks up this book actually moves to France.
Some people just want to live vicariously — to laugh at the disasters, savor the small wins, and get a behind-the-scenes look at what it’s really like to start over in a foreign country.
If that’s you, you’ll still get:
-
Stories funnier than Instagram could ever admit.
-
A front-row seat to the chaos (without standing in a prefecture line).
-
A reminder that it’s never too late to reinvent yourself — even if just in your imagination.
Get Frenched isn’t just for movers. It’s for anyone who secretly wants a slower, richer life — whether you actually pack the boxes or just sip the wine and laugh at ours.
“I just bought your book last week and absolutely love it. Hard to put down. The insight and detail you provide is incredible and so amazingly useful. In my mind, it is a masterpiece.”
— Eric, San Francisco

Publisher’s Note
Why is Amazon faster?
Amazon warehouses and ships books like any other retail product, which means 1–2 day delivery for Prime customers. IngramSpark prints each direct order on demand, adding a short processing time before shipping.
Why buy direct?
• Save $5 on the paperback ($34.99 vs. $39.99 on Amazon).
• Save $10 on the hardcover ($49.99 vs. $59.99 retail).
• Support me as the author far more than an Amazon order does.
• Get the exact same edition, printed by the distributor that supplies bookstores worldwide.
Quick tip
If speed matters most, grab the Amazon paperback. If you want the best value (and to support me directly), the Direct Paperback or Hardcover is the way to go.
