Description
Keith Van Sickle and his wife Val embarked on an adventure to live in Provence, but faced two major obstacles: they weren't fluent in French and had full-time jobs. Undeterred, they came up with a plan to split their time between France and the US, becoming consultants along the way.
As they settled into life in Provence, Keith and Val learned valuable lessons about the local culture, including the power of cheese in politics and the nuances of French kissing etiquette. With humor and humility, they navigated the challenges of building a new life in a foreign land, slowly mastering the language and making friends with the locals.
This lighthearted memoir offers a humorous and relatable account of their experiences, full of witty observations on French culture and way of life. If you're looking for inspiration to make a change or learn more about joie de vivre, this book is a great place to start.
