How easy is it, really, to move to France and find work if you’re a foreigner? What about if English is your dominant language and French is a very distant second (or third, or fourth)? France24 journalist Charli James moved to Paris nearly two years ago and has talked at length about navigating life in Paris on her blog “Am I French Yet?” Today, she joins the show to talk about working and living in English/French and a hybrid of both. Up first: her work covering the Notre Dame fire on April 15, 2019.
