Hello everyone!

I moved to France from Finland about 8 months ago, got married with my french man and settled in the South of France. I live next to Avignon in a little village and am looking for other expats in the area. I miss somebody to connect with about being an expat and sharing our experiences. I have met some foreigners, but they were already so integrated (lived in France over 10 years) that they didn't honestly care to get involved with a newbie

The French people are lovely, but sometimes it would be nice to share insights with someone who is on the same boat with me!

Hello!
If you are on Facebook, look for Long Duck Ladies - it's a group of anglophone women, centered in Montpellier, but I know it includes a few from Nîme, and perhaps Avignon.
I won't be there for a few months yet :-)
Good luck,
Julie

Hello, Miss Wednesday!

Thank you for your message and welcome to France I would be happy to chat about our experiences with you. You are lucky though, because there are a lot of foreigners in Aix en provence But it is not terribly far from here if we want to meet someday. I'll catch up with you later!
