The Summer I Turned Expat

In this episode of Away We Go We Go, we open up about what life’s really been like since we took the leap and moved our family to France two years ago. From handling France’s endless paperwork and adjusting to the slower pace of life, it’s all here: the highs, the lows, and the everyday magic of living abroad. We even share how our recent experiences, like a transformative solo trip to Florence and our twins starting at an international school, have shaped our perspective on expat life. We also have a little fun with pop culture, diving into “The Summer I Turned Pretty” and exploring what TV gets right (and wrong!) about moving to France. From tricky visa rules to the magical moments wandering sunlit streets, we break down the real vs. the romanticized. It’s a blend of humor, honesty, and practical advice for anyone dreaming of living abroad or just curious about life in the south of France. If you’ve ever been inspired by a show, book, or movie to start your own adventure, we’d love to hear your story!
