I am Retired.
My expat journey








Albufeira, Faro, Portugal
Retired and happy to be. I’m enjoying this country! Climate, golf courses, etc.
A little more work mainly by telephone at www.aamericanlimousines.paris
I like everything here, especially the welcome of the Portuguese.
And finally, a French expat is much nicer than if he (or she) had stayed in France!
I don't like it... and it's my fault for not speaking Portuguese yet. Because I really want to integrate.

Paris, Île-de-France, France
Married, two children
then separated
and since 2007 with the best Chérie Chérie in the world!
23 years in the pharmaceutical industry, finishing as CEO of the largest company specializing in non-prescription products
then 17 years as founder and owner of a limousine rental company with driver, specialized and No1 in the niche of American stretch limousines
Exciting job. Restaurants, wine, the pleasure of Parisian festivals.
and above all, the good group of friends!
The idiots (and there are a lot of them in France)!
And France has unfortunately changed a lot with immigrants who do not integrate.
Crazy taxes and charges!

Fontainebleau, Île-de-France, France
MBA at INSEAD
I liked everything! The lessons and the interaction with other students in group discussions were exciting. I learned a lot and it has helped me in my professional life.
Not much time, given the intensity of the classes, to have fun.
