RENESTANCE is one of French Footsteps’ Trusted Professionals, and the relocation service I used when moving to France. I’ve recommended them to friends and readers because their work is grounded in facts, current regulations, and real experience.
Next weekend, RENESTANCE is marking ten years of helping English-speakers settle in France with a life in France seminar designed for people who want clear, current guidance. The full-day event is available both in person and online. For those attending in person, the seminar takes place at Château de la Piscine — an elegant 18th-century château in Montpellier
This life in France seminar focuses on practical, up-to-date information for people navigating visas, healthcare, housing, taxes, and the administrative systems that often cause confusion or delays. RENESTANCE has been in this field long enough to understand not just the rules, but how French bureaucracy actually works in practice.
If you’re actively planning a move, mid-process, or newly arrived and still finding your footing, this may be a useful and timely resource.

See you there!

How sweet you are! I loved meeting you and Russ, too. The Renestance event was a great event and even better because of the contacts made. I’m hoping that we can stay in touch. You’re welcomed to vist me in Uzés anytime you’re up this way. Thank you so much for the note and for reaching out. Made my day! Hope you continue to enjoy the blog. It’s been a labor of love for France.
