| Subject: | Considering moving to Provence |
| Date: | Thursday, October 16, 2003 |
| Name: | larry |
| Message: | I am going to retire in 6 yrs. My wife and I are considering where we would like to retire (we now live in northern California). We have been taking french lessons for a few years and have visited france twice. We will not be looking for employment but would like to own a small place with a hectare or so. I need to know some info re: taxation, the availabilty of health care in france & hidden (primarily financial) pitfalls that may not exist in the US. I am concerned that there maybe financial risks different than those in the US. I can always learn about obvious things such as changes in currency, electrical services,etc. However, what I am looking for is some insight by expat's who have moved to France. Any comments would be appreciated... |

Forgive me for asking, but why would you want to leave beautiful northern CA for France?!
San Francisco, Monterey, Carmel, Half Moon Bay! I'd trade places with you in a minute. Good luck with your project :) |

Hello,
I have a similar idea and have collected quite a bit of information on all these topics. Just spent a month in France and would like to share views with you. I live in Marin County and I too would like to move to France. ..... Gillian |

Hello,
Would love to chat with you. I live in Marin County, California. Voice mail 415-267-6174. Leave a message with number and I will give you a call. Earlier this year spent a month in France, especially in the Dordogne area. Went from Normandy to Provence. Au revoir! Gillian |
