106 We are all packed up and headed back to Paris for our flight California. It’s always difficult. Not just making sure we have everything ready but to leave our friends.
We’re on our way to 10K subscribers! Thanks for helping us get there!

Description of Us:
We are a couple of American Francophiles who have come to truly appreciate so many things about French culture. We love the food, wine, art, and history of France, but especially the people we have met along the way. Join us as we make our dream of living in France a reality. Follow us as we explore the French living and a new life there with our beloved dog, Bernice. We enjoy learning about stone house renovation, wine, cooking, brocante shopping, and the French community we are now a part of.

Lovely, safe travels ☺️
Aww. I feel sad too 😢
❤❤❤ There’s baby girl Bernice 😊 Heey miss your mailman antics.
🤭Oh and hi guys safe travels
Safe travels! How do you organize to have a vehicle each time you visit France? Is that a rental for the full duration of your stay?
Bon retour au pays
I feel sad that you have to leave. Can’t you work remotely from France?
Did you guys just get in a couple of weeks ago?
Bon Voyage! See you guys when you get back! ❤
Great videos! Welcome back guys. I'll see ya soon!
What fun these videos have been. Welcome back to California where the sky has been raining all day Sunday.
Bon retour chez vous. I hope you will be safe. Au plaisir de vous revoir dans quelque temps. 😊
I guess tomorrow will be from California ! Out of curiosity, in which hotel do you stay near Paris before taking your return flight ?
Bon Voyage to you both & lovely Bernice ~ look forward to your return later in the Year 😊
I have really enjoyed your daily posts. It is sad to see you leave France. Will you be posting when you get back to California? Have a safe journey back home.
safe journey from us in La Creuse
Closing the shutter is, I believe, an advice from the mairie but it may be mandatory for your insurance company.
If the shutters stay open and your house is burglarized, some company may refuse to pay by saying you did not take all the precautions.
Read the small characters in your contract !
Closed shutters are also safer in case of tempest winds or heavy hail.
Isn’t dangerous not to have working smoke detectors working in your house while you’re away especially for insurance purposes?
You guys are so brave to drive through Paris. Safe travels!
That last look around the house when you go home is a wrench. We have done that so many times from la creuse. You’ll be back though soon enough. 🎉
