  • ABOUT ME

    An American Expat in France

    MY STORY

    I'm an American expat living in France. Originally from Miami, I grew up with different cultures. I caught the 'language bug' in college, where I studied Spanish and then Portuguese, following up with exchange programs in Venezuela and Brazil.

    My French language exchange was only a matter of time...

    Love brought me to France permanently in 2011. I became a parent to Franco-American kids a few years later.
