In this episode, we take you through our journey of moving to France—from the very first idea to actually settling in. We share how we chose our destination, the big things to consider (like visas and finances), and the little details that make a big difference.

Once we made the decision, the real work began! We talk about selling our home, packing up our life, and dealing with the stress that comes with such a big move. We also break down what we call the Survival Year—those first 12 months where everything feels new, from setting up services to finding a community and celebrating small wins. Plus, we share what to expect around months 8–9, when things can start to feel extra challenging.

At the end, we reflect on how far we've come and offer a free guide for anyone thinking about moving abroad. If you're curious about life in France or planning your own move, this episode is for you! Comment guide on our latest post for more details, and follow along for more tips and support.
