Join us for the true tales of Janine’s rollercoaster ride through a different culture and a path to a new life in northern France.
Janine Marsh is an author, travel writer, editor and publisher of the free to read/subscribe The Good Life France Magazine (the most popular English language magazine about France in the world and website www.thegoodlifefrance.com.
Her internationally best-selling books follow the tale of her journey from a city slicker office worker in London to a country bumpkin writer in northern France where she now lives with her husband and 62 animals. She tells the tale of how one grey dismal day she went on a day trip to France to pick up some cheap wine. She returned to England a few hours later having put in an offer on a rundown old barn in the rural Seven Valleys area of Pas de Calais. This was not something she’d expected or planned for. Janine eventually gave up her job in London to move with her husband to live the good life in France. Or so she hoped. While getting to grips with the locals and la vie Française, and renovating her dilapidated new house, a building lacking the comforts of mains drainage, heating, or proper rooms, and with little money and less of a clue, she started to realize there was lot more to her new home than she could ever have imagined. They are the true tales of Janine’s rollercoaster ride through a different culture and a path to a new life—one that, to a Brit from the city, is in turns surprising, charming, and not the least bit baffling.
