🔎 EXCERPT 🔎
What are the pros and cons of living in France right now? This is the most visited country in the world. But we all know that visiting a country is not the same as living in it. Still, many people that arrived for just a few days in France, decided to stay there for the rest of their lives. This is the case, for example, of the enormous British community living in Bordeaux. We talked with some of these foreigners and in this episode, we will bring to you the Pros and Cons of moving to France. And stay until the end. because in the final part of this episode, we will expose some realities of the cost of living in Paris, and compare it with New York and London. There are some clichés that make people consider moving to France. Things like: • The existence of a universal healthcare system (which is not always available, we will talk more about this later). • To learn French (but maybe France is not the best place for it, we will talk more about it soon). • To work in a country with smaller business hours and apparently, a good work-life balance.

Retirement residency in France is pretty straightforward if you meet income requirements.
US residents who pay taxes on worldwide income can deduct French taxes on their US tax return to avoid double taxation.

Also, public transportation in France is only good in the medium and large cities and between them, anywhere else and it could be candidates for worst in the world. Also opening hours of shops in France

[@the_expat]

The shorter opening hours is a double-edged sword: it might be good if you are one of those working in the shops :)

You could have done better, this sucks
