Terrific interview Jen! These are the stories that inspire folks to keep going. Even when the process get's bogged down or the bureaucracy feels overwhelming.

Hi Will thanks for watching! Many more like these to come so stay tuned!
Sounds like a wonderful apartment building. Do you think that type of community is typical or atypical? Also while I’m learning French I worry we might feel limited with regard to outings and attending events where if we don’t know French we might be lost or bored. Do you think it’s easy to participate in events, classes, etc where English may be spoken?
Very well!
Thanks a lot!
Great interview, proving dreams do come true:). Happy for Sean and Audra.
We are in a similar situation - my husband is American and I have both US and EU passports and we are hoping to spend 5 months EACH YEAR in Nice. I am getting contradicting answers from the French Consulate in DC: my husband needs a long stay visa AND (as a spouse of the EU member) he does not need a visa for the 5 months. Do you know which one is correct? Did Sean's wife need a visa? Thank you!
Hi and thanks so much for watching! You will need to apply for a EU spouse visa that can be applied for directly in France we can of course assist with the entire process. Please feel free to visit our website www.frenchconnectionshcb.com for more information and to book your consultation with us where we can outline a full plan for you. Thanks again for watching!
Or seek dual citizenship! Born in France married an American (not for citizenship just in case anyone wonders) and that was pretty fast I’d say. My wife now ex never considered it but our Sons should they choose have that possibility anytime just by applying in French consulate.
