In this episode of Real Life Stories, we sit down with Sophie, who moved to the Ruffec area of the Charente around 20 years ago and quickly immersed herself in French family life — never looking back since. 🇫🇷


Sophie shares her journey to France, what inspired the move, and how life evolved once she settled into the French countryside.


In this episode, we talk about:

  • Her early days adapting to life in France

  • What she loves most about living in the French countryside

  • What it was like bringing up children in France

  • How her journey eventually led her to becoming an estate agent for Beaux Villages


This is a warm and insightful conversation about building a long-term life in France, embracing a different pace of living, and how opportunities can grow from taking that first leap abroad.
