Tres Dignified

We reflect on recent unrest in France. Then we visit London (twice) before returning to France for its first ever NFL game. Stay for the Salon du Chocolat, and a luxury pumpkin festival.

A warm expat apero, a 14th anniversary sushi date, baby gym, bike rides, and yoga — plus a sinkhole in the driveway and blood on the toaster. The camembert was transcendent.

Back to school! We're loving the routine, and keeping it fresh with animal adventures, a bit of culture, and all the wine bars.

We wrap up this epic Alpine summer in La Clusaz, with a couple stops in Annecy. When we're not eating local cheeses, we're conquering fears of heights and children's movie matinees. But in the end, we have to somehow make it home... 

Season 3 opens with August in the Alps, by way of the Jura. Listen as we travel between illness and adventure. This episode takes us first to Maisod, and then to Samoens. 

Brutal heat waves in France, hosting friends, market days in Saint-Germain-en-Laye, and a guest segment with the Baker family. Then we're off to the Loire-Atlantique coast exploring salt marshes, touring a submarine museum, visiting an oceanarium, sailing on a catamaran, and enjoying local seafood, baguettes and galettes. It must be the season finale!

A quick trip to the U.S. for a reunion, a chaotic solo-parent weekend, a 3-year-old driving a go-kart, another head injury, a Jack White concert, and memorable meals from lobster rolls to Michelin‑level arancini. Things are really heating up.

We brave that famous mid-May Lille swelter, and would even do it again. Find out why.

We're storming the beaches in family-friendly fashion, taking in the history and tastes of Normandy. Plus there's a day at Roland Garros. How much can we fit into the month of May? Enough to make it a two-parter!

After a sunny Croatian break, the family returns to a string of May holidays in France and chaotic long weekends.
