Could moving to France be the answer to starting over?
Catharine and Wayne, a couple from Washington, USA, lost their financial security in their 70s. Faced with the rising cost of living in America, they packed up their lives and moved to rural southwest France in search of something simpler, more affordable – and more joyful.
In this heartfelt video, they share the highs and lows of their first three months living in Mirande, a charming French town they found entirely by accident. From language mishaps to discovering the real value of time and space, this is their honest story of resilience, adventure, and new beginnings in France.
