More about the book

Written in an engaging style, this guide is tailored for newcomers seeking practical information for a smoother transition to life in France. It covers essential topics such as job hunting, permits and visas, health care, accommodation, finance, insurance, education, shopping, postal and telephone services, public transport, motoring, and leisure activities. Packed with vital information and insider tips, it aims to minimize culture shock and shorten the adjustment period for newcomers. While general information may be accessible in France (if you speak French), finding reliable, up-to-date resources in English specifically for foreigners can be challenging. This guide fills that gap, offering comprehensive and practical insights to help you feel at home. Transitioning from tourist to resident involves navigating a new environment and culture, which can be daunting. Now in its 11th edition, this book stands out as the most current resource for foreigners in France. It is not just a collection of dry facts; rather, it provides an entertaining and practical perspective on life in the country. With up to twice the information found in similar guides, it is essential reading for anyone planning to live or work in France.
