Review
"Like many expats, Alan Hart, meant to spend just one year in France on a post-university stint, but ended up staying and making this city his home. His book is filled with practical information for people considering - and those who have already made - that same big move. Divided into 22 user-friendly chapters, dealing with apartment hunting, finding employment, the social security system - and everything 'in between' those topics - the book's greatest asset is its success in demystifying the various facets of French bureaucracy that foreigners find so baffling." Paris Voice; "For those of you contemplating moving to live and work in Paris, this guide is a must." Living France; "It covers just about everything you will want to know. Written from first-hand experience, this book is essential." France in Print; "...interesting, full of useful information and good value for money." Phoenix"

About the Author
Following the success of this and his other book Going to Live in France, Alan has become one of the preferred local commentators on France for BBC Radio.
