Why do I help
expatriates in France ?
Being married to a mexican expatriate, I experienced at first hand the difficulties he faced in adapting to his new professional and cultural environment, despit his best efforts. By dint of perseverance, he found his place in France and today he works in his dream job, but it wasn't easy.
I am also surrounded on a daily basis by expatriates who experienced the same difficulties on their arrival in France, some of which still persist several years later.
I was particulary moved and inspired by the stories of two friends of mine, Gissel and Rocio, both Mexicans who followed their French spouses to come to live in France, with their children. In my eyes, they are examples of courage, resilience and benevolence on a daily basis, despite all the difficulties they may have encountered in their expatriation adventure.
