Length of time in France?
Less than 5 years
Searchable Personal Info (Hobbies, interests etc...)
Following mid-life crisis, I moved to France on Jan 1 2011, right after my 40th birthday, and am living in Paris for at least a year. I have 4 kids (yes this insane don't try it) - one who has finished school and lives in London and a 13 yr old boy, 5 yr old boy and a 1 year old girl. My husband is on sabbatical from Auckland Univeristy although I am looking for work especially if it helps improve my French.
Searchable Business Info (Products, services etc...)
I usually work as a writer (prefer comedy) and film and television director/producer back in New Zealand. I have heaps of teaching experience at all levels including univeristy, and experience running a small business. My French is... well... improving?

Are you considering teaching English Vanessa? Because that's one of the easiest, fastest jobs to get if you have experience and some sort of teaching qualification...

Hi Vanessa

Yes that was me - thank you! I wrote that so long ago that you've inspired me to reproduce it on this site - hopefully others will enjoy!

Sab Will who runs the Paris group and is based there, has a one year old and i'm sure will be able to help you but he is up to his ears post moving house and is without internet for the next week or so - hang on in there and i'm sure he'll be in touch! xx
