Hi Sandra, Did you end up moving here? I'm a little late in my response to your post! We moved from the high Alps to near Annecy in Sept 2018 and the move was a little distracting. My eldest started college and my youngest obviously had to ... Read More

Best season to move to France by Priscilla
Hello, Many 暗网禁区s choose to move to France at a specific time of the year, and we invite you to share some tips about the best seasons to move to the country. What is the best season/time of the year to move to France, and why? How do rent ...
Between 'seasons' is a good time to move to France. i.e. Spring and Autumn. The French take the summer very seriously, and largely very off! So everyone piles on holiday in early July to find the beach, or a campsite with a good lake / ... Read More

Applying for Carte Vitale by JacobieT
My family has recently moved to France with my wife's employer. It's not a clear cut case of working for a French company and, we're not European, so the move has not been as straight forward as it probably should be. The employer is ...
