Meet Sera, a Colorado native who made the bold move to Marseille and found her dream café — a vibrant knit & natter spot called Le Fil En Trop.
Wherever her travels take her, Sera’s comfort zone is a yarn shop. So when she arrived in colourful Marseille, she felt right at home in this warm and welcoming community café. When Le Fil En Trop went up for sale, Sera seized the opportunity to make it her own. In this inspiring story, Sera shares her journey from Colorado to the Mediterranean, her love for Marseille, her neighbourhood highlights, and exciting future plans for her unique crafts café.
Discover how French Connections HCB became the fairy godmother of her relocation journey — from expert advice to invaluable administrative support.
