My relationship with France began at 3 years old when my grandmother, a European from Morocco, taught me to sing Frère Jacques. Since then, I have been learning its language and culture in the classroom, on the street and working at French companies.
After my husband and I met at a French language meet-up in Orange County, California, he accompanied me to New York so I could complete a Masters in French Studies at New York University. After three years in New York and lots of hard work, my husband was offered a CDI contract at a media company in Paris. We now live in the 10th arrondissement and enjoy discovering new corners of The City of Light every day.
The goal of Pasa’s Paris is both to share our experiences and to help others in the many steps it takes to become established as a foreigner in France.
Thrilled to get to read about all of your exotic and exciting adventures, Jessica!
Thanks Ciana
I will write more soon, I promise!
Jess!
So exciting to hear about your move to Paris; You did it!
Do you have internet in your apartment now?
Sending lot of love to you both across the world!
Love,
Lauren
Hey Lauren! Yes, we did it! We have internet in the apartment but from a USB key because we aren’t staying here long enough to get internet installed. It works for now. Thanks for your good thoughts!
Yay! I am so excited for the two of you and very happy you are starting this blog. Can’t wait to hear about all your adventures eating wonderful food, speaking a beautiful language, and living in a much more “life is good” culture than our own. Enjoy my friend.
