Guide on getting to grips with French life April 15, 2008
2 out of 3 found this review helpful
Patricia Mansfield-Divine writes from real experience of making a move; offering advice on subjects such as settling in to a new area, starting a business and getting utilities connected up, she has already faced many of the challenges other newcomers have yet to tackle.

I read the usual books before moving to France and as many before me have found out they are full of facts that may be true but may not be useful. This book is based on research from real people, about the experiences you are likely to encounter, not an intellectual exercise in navigating the French bureacracy. Save yourself some trouble and for the cost of a couple of drinks buy this book if you are considering a move temporarily or permenantly to France.

I wish I'd had this book when I moved to France. It covers everything you need to know without padding and all written in an entertaining, easy-to assimilate style. Where other books like this make you feel like you're ploughing through government tracts on tax laws, this one gives you critical information in a way that makes everything easy to understand and easy to act on. I read some sections for the fun of it.
Even though I've been living in France some years, the book still told me things I didn't know - and needed to know. I've got a feeling this is going to be a well-thumbed volume that will never leave my desk. Let's hope the publisher keeps it updated. Very highly recommended.
