🇨🇦There’s just something about that moment when your offspring, no matter what their age, says, “I’m getting hungry”, that makes parents want to get to the kitchen as soon as they can, or jump in the car to head to a restaurant. From my perspective as the parent of a 34 year old daughter, it’s still a great pleasure to enjoy a meal and share our lives while we eat. I expect that living in France gives you all exceptional opportunities to eat some of the best food in the world.
Don’t forget the Kiwis they fought beside us Aussies & the British. My grandfather fought on the Somme in WW1 from 1914-1918 he live to ripe old age of 97.
My father in-law served with the Army in France during World War III. He love the French people. My husband born in France at that time since his wife moved with him at a little military town called Bussac, I believe that may be the correct spelling. I like to see that little town through your tours in France. Thank you Sean and family.
Sean you have a beautiful wife and daughter. Enjoy seeing the rural family life you have made for yourselves. Someday I may get to see your country but for now your channel is one of my escapes from Iowa, USA.
I agree with you Sam, the French think we English are mad in buying old barns/properties in rural France to convert into a house, still not finished after 15 years, then Rome was not built in a day😂, continue your journey renovating your lovely property, you are such a lovely family❤
Hi from me, a Scottish lady 56 yrs old, moved to South of Spain, Benalmádena, when I was 17; 39 yrs ago, so yeah, I know what you mean about the immigration matter. I agree, people are people, how they were born, some will accept you without a second thought, others in time, and others just don't. I love your projects and videos, it's given a whole new light to France, imo.
How do you find time to help Billy with the convent & doing your own renovations & what made you decide to move to France to live? Do enjoy watching you visiting the markets & antique shops you visit. Love your cottage gardens too
So lively to see you all sitting down together and chatting like this, looking forward to Sam using her channel again. You will never lose your accents, I moved here to Queensland Oz 50years ago and still have my North London accent anither secret to adapting is to accept France/ Australia and its ways, lifestyle etc but retain your own culture and traditions and blend them in. For an Aussie I'm still very English. Thank you for sharing 💕🇦🇺
If it would ever be fun for you, I'd love to hear Jasmine and Jack and the family have a conversation in French. Maybe just smatterings of it in the videos? 😊
Just want to say you are such a LOVELY FAMILY, it is a PLEASURE to watch your videos. Thankyou for taking the time for sharing your life with us. God bless you!!!
For those wondering about the woodworm. French buildings used earth as an insulator, and sound reducer, that was one method of how woodworm came in during construction. Others came in from contaminated products. Water intrusion around doors and windows causes a bigger wood rot problem to floors and joists then just worm damage.
Greetings, Sam & Sean. I can't sleep, here in South-east Australia. I love the episodes where you show us the roadside & open air markets. I also love copper cookware. My ambition is to own a copper preserving pan. Ah, we all can dream.
Hi Sean, Sam and Jasmine, love the Q&A, I often wondered why France as well, because the UK has beautiful countryside as well, and you answered that. This was fun, thanks for taking the time for us to get a little nosey, Love from N.Y.
Oh how I would love to live in the French countryside.. My ancestors (Belanger) are from Normandy, they go wayyyy back to the 1500's and beyond. I have never been to France, but I LOVE everything about the rural areas.. Maybe someday. Nice video.. thank you..
@@juliad368 Oh, that's interesting. They probably were relatives. . I am in the N.E. USA. because (Francois Belanger) left Normandy in 1635 on Capt. Giffords ship.. , They came to Canada, landed at the mouth of St. Lawrence River in "The New France", (Quebec). But All of his (Francois) family was still in Normandy area. His father was also named Francois, born late 1500's. That's as far back as I have been able to go. Interesting history... I think that is why I am SO drawn to that area.
This was lovely. You have a lovely family and your children have inherited your aura of peace and humility in the very best sense. Thank you for this ❤
Aw, this was so nice. We've been hosting our daughter, son-in-law, their Alaskan Malamute and beaded dragon for a few days. Their house is being fumigated and they had to stay someplace that would allow their dog. I've been so happy to have her under our roof again. It's so great to see parents with grown kids who actually enjoy being together. Have a great week and Sam, I'm voting for you to get that ladder outside the cottage for potted plants! 💚
Well done, an interesting listen. Love your channel and enthusiasm for renovation, history, gardening and nature. Been with you from the start of Sean’s World and thoroughly enjoy the content 👍
It’s an amazing place so beautiful. Lots of stairs and lots of people. We visited in 2019 and would love to visit France again but travel from Australia takes approx 22 hours which is not fun. 🇦🇺
Hello from Michigan in the US. Loved the video today it was very interesting learning about you and your family . I’ve been watching your videos for some time now and also ones with Billy . Love all the stuff you do and also the laughter you all bring .
Enjoyed the Q and A. You and your family are so talented. It just draws a person to see how you all are and what you are doing. I was married to a carpenter and my son was a carpenter and interior decorator and painter mechanic and a great father. I van relate to the highs and lows and adventures!!! You have an awesome family. Have a wonderful week!!!
Sean we found your channel while watching Billie and you were helping him at the chateau and in finding copper utensils, then you tackled the convent ceiling it seemed all by yourself, you are one of the few all-around craftsmen left you know...we really enjoy watching you and learning from your expertise, Thank You for always being upbeat and very much a "gentle"man... btw I am a 75 yo great-grandmother in Oregon, USA
Thoroughly enjoyed your Q&A and smiled when you said Essex as I am an Essex Girl. Feel sure I saw you in the background at one of the Strawbridges Chateau programme along with the Pethericks, Zadie, Michael etc. another story…….look forward to your next vlog. 🍷🍷🇬🇧🇬🇧
Yes l am on the Christmas 2018 episode of Escape to the chateau when they had a party for the staff, and in the kitchen (where l worked) in a few brief glimpses in other episodes. Sean can be seen helping to lift the cooker in on another epidode.
@@athomeinfrancewithsam837 it is shown so often on TV. You should get royalties……..thank you for your reply. I enjoyed seeing Sean at Battlesbridge Antique shopping on his vlog. 🍷🍷🇬🇧🇬🇧
In 2000 My husband, myself and 3 young kids stayed in verdelot, Ile-de-france. We had a tour of a small vineyard. The owner, an elderly farmer type was quite standoffish with us at first, only speaking when he had to. My son who was 7 at the time mentioned that we were Scottish. I was shocked at the change in the man. He got very chatty and friendly, even giving us a free champagne tasting. When asked he said he thought we were English and wasn’t keen on them as they can be rude and arrogant !?!? As we were leaving I told him that it was only me and the kids that were Scottish, my husband is actually English. His face was a picture lol. I was really shocked, dismayed and in disbelief at his total u turn in demeanour and obvious discrimination towards the English. I’m so glad that you guys haven’t come across discrimination which gives me hope that there are very few incidents and our experience was an exception rather than the norm. Love to all 🤗
Unfortunately, I'd have to agree with you, I'm not sure why but it is kinda true. It heavily depends on the region I think but in rural areas there is definitely a general cold/impatient attitude towards english people specifically. Maybe I picked up on it more than my parents!
Just FYI I'm half French and half British and I get a lot of crap for being French when in the UK whereas I have never had anything but curious and interested comments from the French about my British half. I find many Brits to be shockingly and openly xenophobic when it comes to the French.
Sean and Sam....you are a beautiful couple and have wonderful children. I laugh every time I hear Jasmine talk, as her voice is so much like Sam's...lovely!! You are a beautiful family and am so happy that you are sharing your story with us. Bless you all and much love from Canada..🇨🇦 💝
I agree lovely family! I really enjoy and appreciate how Shaun introduces us to the beautiful villages. He is so knowledgeable about his area. Thankyou Shaun! Thankyou to the other members of your family too. ❤
My Mother's family is from Somerset, Gloucestershire, Wiltshire England. But my Grandfather and my Great Grandpa moved to the US in the 1920. His brothers stayed in England. I miss the proper way my Grandfather talked. He always called me by my full name. When my Mom did, I knew I was in trouble. LOL
I really enjoy your videos, and appreciate the Q & A. You’re a very lovely family and I’m happy that you moved to France and have loved it all these years. The French countryside is beautiful. Every time I’ve visited France the French have been nothing but kind and friendly. xx
Very nice to see all of you. Good questions and answers. Hope you had a good holiday. Here was Memorial Day for all those who fought and died in the wars. Till next one.
Thank you for the Q and A. I love hearing your background family history. Sean your wife and daughter are just beautiful and I would love if Sam starts showing us how she stays so beautiful plus any knowledge she has on using herbs for health and beauty if she does.
I think their good natures,a happy marriage and clearly inherited attractive looks,combined with a love of tasty,healthy food and fresh air result in an appealing looking family as much as any herbs.I bet Sam moisturises well too😊
Setting up a business is an interesting matter. In some countries, particularly in Germany, quite a few types of businesses require proof of qualifications, usually a fairly strict process. In Austria it's even worse, there's something like four fields you can simply register a business in without extensive training and exams and everything. Even working as a professional photographer used to require an apprenticeship and master's course until a few years ago! It's usually justified with quality control and health & safety but it's also deeply rooted in the traditional system of the guilds and trying to keep competition under control. There are some quite strange exceptions as well, e.g. if you hold any (!) university degree you can open a bar or restaurant without any courses or proof of qualifications. Not quite sure why an MA in linguistics or history would make you more suitable than having worked in hospitality for years, just to give an example.
I had the same experience coming from Australia. My thoughts were they demanded more from UK people as they are close neighbours whereas there was more leeway for people further away on the other side of the world.

Greetings, Sam & Sean. I can't sleep, here in South-east Australia. I love the episodes where you show us the roadside & open air markets. I also love copper cookware. My ambition is to own a copper preserving pan. Ah, we all can dream.

Julie, did you see the copper workshop videos? They were incredible. It was an Old workshop and the footage of the restoration was marvelous.
Love your channel. It makes me want to go to France and get some pastries 🍰 😅.
