My advice, once you have decided where to live, is to talk direct to the local Mairie - they will tell you what you need, what papers and required etc and can make things very simple and straightforward - the opposite is also true, they can, very rarely, be 'difficult' if they are, don't move there, go to another place. Keep in touch and let me know if I can help (especially with accommodation) Hi Laura

I don't plan on coming to France for about 3 years, but I'm sure that will fly quickly. My mother was french, and I have all the paperwork I need, but I'm told my best bet is to hire a french lawyer to get all the important papers translated. I do have a means to support myself, not rich, but carefully I can be ok. I enjoy all your time and effort, the information is invaluable. I have cousins scattered all over France and my sister just went over there. I've forwarded your e-mail to my brother-in-law also as he too is planning on a move also. . This e-mail you send out is like keeping on the pulse of France which I whole heartedly love. I have numerous friends that want to come, but are afraid, but I think sending your e-mail to them and keeping in touch it will make it easier for them to visit France.
