<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>Janine Marsh recounts tales from a year in the rural idyll of France, revealing how an expat from London adapts to the changing seasons of the French countryside, all while renovating a dilapidated barn and trying to fit in with the locals.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p>A little more than 10 years ago, Janine Marsh and her husband Mark gave up their city jobs in London to chase the good life in the countryside of northern France. Having overcome the obstacles of starting to renovate her dream home--an ancient, dilapidated barn--and fitting in with the peculiarities of her new neighbors, Janine is now the go-to expat in the area for those seeking to get to grips with a very different way of life. In the Seven Valleys, each season brings new challenges as well as new delights. Freezing weather in February threaten the lives of some of the four-legged locals; snow in March results in a broken arm, which in turn leads to an etiquette lesson at the local hospital; and a dramatic hailstorm in July destroys cars and houses, ultimately bringing the villagers closer together. With warmth and humor, Janine showcases a uniquely French outlook as two eternally ambitious expats drag a neglected farmhouse to life and stumble across the hidden gems of this very special part of the world.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"If you've ever dreamed of discovering 'the real France', you won't want to miss this delightful book." --Keith Van Sickle, author, <i>One Sip at a Time: Learning to Live in Provence</i><br><br>"Warm, uplifting, and effervescent . . .
