Welcome back to Part 2 of my journey 🇺🇸✈️🇫🇷 After making the bold move from the USA to France, the real story began. Everyone talks about the dream of living abroad... but what happens after the plane lands, the bags are unpacked, and the honeymoon phase fades? In this honest, unfiltered video, I open up about what my first two years in France were really like, from unexpected challenges to the emotional highs and lows of starting over in a new country. What to expect in this episode: ✨ Adjusting to a new life abroad ✨ Learning French (as an adult!) ✨ Facing loneliness and building community ✨ Culture shock in everyday life ✨ Work & lifestyle in France: Did I find a job right away? ✨ Salary, benefits, and financial realities in France vs. the US ✨ Was it worth it? This isn't just about moving to France, it's about reinvention, growth, and learning to thrive in the unknown. Whether you're planning a move abroad, navigating a big life change, or just curious about expat life in France, I hope my story helps you feel a little less alone. 💛 🧳 Subscribe: @chapterswithprecious 🛫 New here?
