FIRST MONTH

We Moved to France

Our first 30 days: meeting the mayor, setting up a countryside house, navigating French grocery stores, and discovering why McDonald’s is better in Europe. The chaos, the wins, and everything we didn’t expect.

VILLAGE LIFE

Fall in the Dordogne

We’re learning which villages have the best Sunday restaurants, why French grocery stores dedicate entire aisles to yogurt, and how to navigate market days in medieval towns. This is what settling into southwest France actually looks like.

MOVING WITH PETS

Taking Lincoln to France
