In this episode, we celebrate two incredible years since moving to France and reflect on all the ways life has changed. We talk about navigating culture shock, building a community, parenting twins abroad, and finding gratitude in the small pleasures of city markets, scenic walks, and delicious local food. From the charm of a historic French apartment to weekend market adventures and our kid’s recovery after surgery, our everyday stories highlight both the beautiful and challenging aspects of settling into a new country.

We share our honest experiences—the joys of travel, the delight of raising bilingual kids, and the peace of a slower pace, as well as the hurdles of bureaucracy, language barriers, missing conveniences, and the sometimes baffling world of French customer service. Through it all, we remind ourselves and our listeners that building a new life is a journey filled with growth, resilience, and lots of learning.

If you’ve ever dreamed of making a big move or are craving a fresh start, we hope our stories encourage and inspire you. Take a moment to reflect on the adventures you want to create, and join in our journey by subscribing, leaving a review, and following us on Instagram. Let’s keep growing and learning together!
