Sinopse
An amusing true story on one woman's move to a small village in a vine-clad valley in the hills of rural France. Sara Verrall's honest account of her early day experiences as she begins to understand the French language, customs, and traditions of her friendly new neighbors could inspire you to follow your dreams too. She freely admits that she was ill-prepared for this giant life-changing step, but with a warm smile and plenty of enthusiasm, she did it anyway!
Her tale takes you from her first "why not?" moment when she jumped with both feet into buying the house of her dreams through to the time, four years later, when she considers where her next steps on French soil might lead her. She might be brave, but she's not a warrior...and it's her most human admissions of her occasional hesitations and worries that add an emotional depth to this heartwarming listen.
With gentle humor and typically British understatement, you will hear of the ups and downs of her preparations to relocate from her buzzing hometown of Brighton, England to the Languedoc region of Southern France. Once installed, you will walk beside Sara as she gains the more intimate lifestyle insights that help her integrate as a true European as she feels less like a foreigner in a foreign land.
This gentle mixture of personal observations and anecdotes will bring to life the finer details of how to sign on to the French healthcare system, how to find work when you can't speak French, and how to handle a romantic rendezvous generated by the most commonly used online dating system in France.
As a single woman in a small village, Sara knows she must skillfully navigate a neutral social path so as to not offend the men and—more importantly—not alienate herself from the women. With her main objective clearly set to "just learn the language and fit in", she is delighted whenever she achieves a personal mini-milestone along her path.
Regardless of whether you are looking to relocate to another land, follow an entirely different dream, or simply want an easy-going listen to bring a smile on a summer's day or warm your heart on a winter's evening, this book ticks all the boxes. Sara Verrall might not be the best cook in town, but she appreciates the culinary skills of others and she might, perhaps, have found another way into the heart of another European in another town....
