EXPATRIATE ADVISOR IN FRANCE
"We don't hope, we plan."
I moved to France in 2016 and was immediately driven crazy by the complexity of this country's bureaucratic system.
It all takes an ungodly amount of time and effort to figure out on your own.
French people, although admitting the absolute disaster -
- do not really bother explaining how everything works there, so you discover concepts and rules as you go...
...if you are lucky enough to speak French. Otherwise it's nearly impossible.
Such experiences induce anxiety, panic attacks, they aggravate depressive states already caused by immigration.
I am here to give you a helping hand and spare a couple of brain cells, whether it is about simple things such as getting a sim-card or subscribing to a local library or matters of high importance, such as getting specific medical assistance, or starting your own business.
Some of the most basic things I can help you with :
- How to communicate with state institutions and not blow your visa up
- How to find a job
- Housing rights and responsibilities
- French laws (for more advanced support I have a French lawyer collaborator I will forward your case to)
- Public education for children and adults
- Ways to learn or practice French
- How to use public transportation
- Banking, credit, and money management basics
- How to access healthcare services, etc.
The world is harsh enough.
Let's stick together and help each other.
Contact me here or on social media to discuss your personal need and elaborate a strategy together.
I am also available for offline assistance when in France.
