In today's episode, we’ll be speaking to Summer Jauneaud, an American expat from Los Angeles living in the town of Amboise, located in the Loire Valley of France.

The interesting sites and attractions to see within her hometown of Amboise.
What made her decide to move to France.
Her experience of applying for French nationality after marrying a Frenchman.
What it has been like raising her children in France.
