Do you dream of moving to France? Profiles in Franceformation is a podcast where you hear from inspiring people who have pursued their dream of moving to France. You learn about why they moved, how they overcame the challenges they faced, and what they love – and hate – about living in France.
The podcast offers interviews with entrepreneurs, retirees, language teachers, editors, dancers, authors, organizers, psychologists, trailing spouses… people from the USA, Puerto Rico, the UK, Australia… stories of immigration, househunting, wine, culture shock, bureacracy… all of those who make up our rich and varied anglo community of expats in all corners of France.
