Hi Janice! I'd love to have you as a guest on my new podcast, MILFs Who Pivot, where I highlight stories of women over 40 who have redesigned their lives. I love your videos by the way - have been watching them on my personal channel.
Thank you Janise for the Carrefour referral.
This is so inspirational! I’m a 54 year old TH-camr and decided to buy a home in France a year ago. I’m renovating my property little by little and one day I will be living in France full-time. Seeing your channel has helped me keep the faith that I too will have the life that I truly dream of. Thank you for sharing.
You are very welcome. Thank you for sharing. What part of France did you buy your property?
@@JaniceInFrance I bought in the Languedoc-Roussillon region near Beziers.
@@JaCaraKM I’m not familiar with that area so you must tell me more as it continues to happen
@@JaCaraKM Stunning area! Félicitations!
Hi Janice, I love what you said that we can rewrite our story. At 66 I thought “what’s left” but with a bit of effort and passion, you can follow your dreams and make it happen. You’ve inspired me. Merci.
Me too🎉 77 here... Janice is truly a kindred spirit❤
Wonderful!
That’s why we wrote the E book because we wanted to give people an idea of what it’s like to go through the process
I’m 70 years old and travelled by myself all my life. I lived in Paris for 7 years (speak French) and went back to visit every year as my Mama lived there (moved from NYC). After her death in 2012 😢, I started going back every 2-3 years. Just got back 2 days ago after spending 2 weeks in Paris and was difficult to come back. I miss Paris so much and believe that you’re so lucky to be in Paris. You made the best move, as the quality of life is much better. Thank you for your stream and bon journée ❤️
Thank you so much maybe you can come back next time we can have a cup of coffee or a glass of wine
@@JaniceInFrance Would love to. I won’t be back for another two years malheureusement, but we can look forward to it. I will keep you informed. Bon journée 😊
When walking the dog last night I said to my son...I wonder what Janice in France is up to! Not seen her for many weeks...and here you are 🥰
I’m up to no good! lol
@@JaniceInFrance 😱😂😂
Great stuff! I'm "only" 52, but I was already feeling like my life was basically over (at least the fun part) and it was just gonna be taxes, aches and pains, more taxes, illness and death from here on out. You've inspired me to make my dream move to Italy happen next year, no excuses anymore!
Oh goodness, I hope so! You have lots of living to do !
Oh my gosh! I’ve been so worried about you! So happy to see this vlog! I am in my 50’s and I truly appreciate you and reminding us that nothing is impossible.💕✨
Thank you so much!!
@JaniceinFrance it worked. I now have my ebook and have already started it. Thank you for sharing.
Wonderful video Janice!
I'm going to be 51 in 10 days!! It's not too late for my dream to come true. Thank you for paving the way and reminding mature women who still want to dream big that they should!!
Heck no it’s not too late. You might want to check out my E book which is complementary of course on my website now many things may change by the time you get ready to come to France or Europe or wherever but it does have some other items in it, that you might find interesting.
Love this, Janice. Especially the part about wondering what would've been possible if we had only been brave enough. We moved from the U.S. to Portugal in our late 50's and early 60's. It's been such a good decision for us. A few years ago, when we were thinking about getting older, it felt like life was getting smaller. Moving abroad has given us the same sense of wide open possibility as we had in our 20s. We were already well-traveled but it feels like there is a whole world still to discover. I love how beautifully you've shared your story.
Thank you so much…. What a journey
Well welcome back Janice. Missed you. ❤
Me too!!
Yeah I decided to move to France and just figuring out when to leap, you’re my inspiration!
Oh, let me know more about your plans
Your vlogs gave me the inspiration to finally take the leap and purchase a French farmhouse in the Loire Valley! Hoping to close within the next few weeks! Thanks and Cheers!
I’m so happy! When do I get the invitation.
@@JaniceInFrance Well, it needs a lot of work as it is 2/3 stone barn and only one livable room at this time. But, when it's a little more functional....you'll get your invite! Cheers! .
I have missed your videos. You are an absolute inspiration
Wow, thank you!
I have been going to Paris almost every year for the past 24 years. Sometimes I travel with a friend and sometimes I go alone. I was there in October 2023 and last month. Next time , I hope to meet you for coffee. 🗼☕
I hope so
Moi aussi j'espère vous rencontrer donc là prochaine fois que vous êtes de passage à Paris faites-moi un signe😉
What a cool tradition!❤
You are so clever to have found just the right person to make your journey a success!. Thanks for the download I can share it with friends who might be moving to Southern Europe.🥰
Wow, thank you!
Love your new TH-cam!!!! I’m living vicariously through you (from Texas 😊) I’m so happy for you that you found the courage to try something totally new and different❤
Thank you so much!!
♥️Love your joie de vivre Janet! Thank you for all that you do to bring France to us! Vivre la France🇫🇷, vivre la Janet! Please never ever stop your channel! We love you♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
Well, I’ve had some kind words today, but I think those are the best. Thank you very much it means a lot to me.
I visit France every year and Italy and the European countries nearby. I retired and planning to move to France looking for a house to buy in Bretagne near Rennes. Am going this August for a month for fun and find out the places. I speak, read and write well french. Yes, the public transportation in Europe is excellent with bullet train that goes from gare du Nord to Pancras UK in about 2 hours, simple and less stress than flying from airport.
Wish me good luck 😊
I wish you the best of luck, and if you would like to receive my complimentary e-book, you can just go to my website and click the button and it’s yours lol good luck this summer
Good luck !!!
I never comment, but have followed your videos once in a while. What is so wonderful about what you do here, is that you are inspiring us all to contemplate and pursue our own journeys.
Yes! Thank you!
Janice this is a work of art. You stepping off the train is so glamorous. Also, I am in love with your new branding, thank you for showing us behind the scenes. I have dreamed of starting my own journey as a content creator and this has inspired me to take that step, so I'm going to reach out to Hadassah at Luxe Operandi to see if she can help me find my magic too.
She is one of a kind!
I am so inspired by you. As a single mom and full time educator for many years...I thought that was all there is. I've decided it's time to rewrite my story, as you said. Retiring and will figure out next steps. Thank you for sharing your story, Janice. You have touched our lives.
Oh im so happy to hear that! What do you teach!
Janice, here we are late in life walking down roads we never thought we would travel. I admire you for following your dream to move to Paris, alone! I can't do what you have done but as I travel on my walk, I'm also enjoying watching you on your journey. We're amazing unique. Im so proud of you! You're inspiring me to keep pushing. Love you sis. ❤️
Yes, I realize that moving to France is not everyone’s idea of what they want to do, but what is it you want to do that you’re trying to achieve please let me know
I have seen you have been working hard on redesign of your channel. It's very well thought-out Janice. Nice and so informative to write down how to make a transition to another country. Being a teacher you have the right skill set. I'm so happy for you! You look lovely, you look content and fashion forward. You should be modeling clothing for a store as you walk around your city, great advertising for them!! Talk to the store manager or area manager if they have one. Most of your audience is women I'm sure. It would be lovely to see you in that green sweater and dress you admired. Just a thought! 😁🌹
I like your way of thinking thank you
Wow!! I’m 62 and I’m having to rewrite mine as my husband just passed away and having to pack up our home, remodel, and I’ve into a much smaller mobile home. I’m proud of you and you brave attitude! Hugs from Texas!
Thank you Texas. I was 60 when my husband passed away and I know exactly what you’re talking about. The only thing is I waited another six years before I moved out of my home. Thank you for the kind words. Take care!
Yaaasssss 🙌 Misssss Janice !
Giving me LIFE TODAY ❤ ✈️ 🇫🇷
Thank you
You're clearly passionate about vlogging and being an influencer. I truly enjoy your storytelling. These are talents that you possess that contribute greatly to your 'total package.' I'm enjoying your channel and thanks so much for doing this!
Thank you so much!!
I just finished reading your publication about your move to France. Your advice to others about moving to France was excellent and your candid remarks about your experience was very insightful and helpful.
Well, thank you so much. That’s very kind.
This was so lovely, well done. I’m so happy for you. Enjoy every minute of your new life.
Thank you! Will do!
Moving to Paris on a retired teacher income is a bit sketchy as Paris is quire expensive. But glad you like France.
Go to my website Janiceinfrance.com and download my ebook. It will answer many of your questions.
@@JaniceInFrance I am good. France is my country but thanks.
Would miss my children and grandchildren too much…happy where I am😊
You are so kind
My great grandmother was from Paris but moved to the U.K. in her late teens where my grandfather was born and raised. I have recently found long lost family still in Paris and have been invited to stay - I cannot wait to go - I live in South Wales in the U.K but dream of moving somewhere else - I am 50 next year. Your video makes me know that it is possible. - Good for you
Good for you
Janice, I kinda want to move to France and hang out with you! You’re way too cool!
You are very kind
Haha...😂enjoyed this one
@@mavisgrobler8806 thank you
Been following since very early after you started your channel! Every time you post, Janice, you inspire me to try my best to inch closer to chasing my dreams, which includes experience living in the French countryside. Thank you for posting again!
Oh that does sound lovely. Please let me know your plans and if you want to you can download my e-book that might help you a little bit along your path.
You are living your best life on your own terms.❤😊😊😊
So true!
So good to hear your voice again, Janice ! Thank you for the e-book.
You are so welcome!
Janice, Thank you for being you! Your amazing!!! I have downloaded youer E-book! Another step towards my dream of moving to France! 🥰❤ You are truly an inspiration!!!! Love you!
You are so welcome!
WOW! I downloaded your ebook and it is FANTASTIC! So is your new website! Thanks Janice!
Well thank you! Hard work pays off!
Thank You With Love💘
Your words wove a beautiful tapestry of France & your new adventure. The photography was outstanding I could almost hear & smell Paris. I visited there many years ago on my European tour & fell in love with the sights, people watching & not knowing the language I enjoyed listening into conversations - it has a sing song sound. I wish you the best of luck, happiness & health
Thank you so much for your very sweet words
Thank you so much, Janice! You truly are such an inspiration. I’m so glad to see you back. Welcome back! I was just thinking about you within the past week and waiting for your next video. How exciting! An e-book. Congratulations! 👏👍And thanks again! I hope someday I can meet you in France. Keep enjoying life and thank you for sharing with us! 🍾🎊💗 🇫🇷
Thank you for your kind words
Janice, good to see you again. Your followers missed you! Welcome back!
Thank you! I’m glad to be back!
Fantastic video Janice! I signed up but I’m not sure it went through. Anyway my husband and I will also move to France, spring 2027. We have much to prepare for, such as the logistics of moving our four cats. Knowing you moved with pets is one thing that drew me to your channel and I have to rewatch your videos to gain more insights how you did that. My sister also already moved to France early 2023 so another awesome resource.
Congratulations on your rebranding…it’s perfect!
Try again…. Had a little glitch. If you try again it should come back asking you a questions.
@@JaniceInFrance So, I tried twice using my iPhone and it seems to create a loop. But I tried again, after your reply, on my Notebook and it worked perfectly! I am sorry if you get three registrations from me though. I really look forward to reading your eBook and learning more, and of course watching more of your videos. As I wrote, you're very inspiring and there are times when watching your video essays that it seems like you were sharing my own thoughts on life.
Tried downloading the e-book it will help you with the pet because there is a section on there and how to travel with your pets
Good morning janice great to see you. Love from Australia 🇦🇺
Hello and thanks
So good to hear from you. I was concerned... but get the re-brandng. Thank you for sharing your beautiful journey to France!
You’re welcome
I’ve missed your vlogs and glad you’re back. I look forward to resuming your adventures in France.
Yay, thank you!
Janice you are an inspiration..have been on your radar for a short time only..but so far have been inspired by your words of wisdom …. Creating another life beyond when we can call it our own..not being stuck in a rut and forever wondering what next..you have committed to the unknown and certainly given others something to think about..dreams do come true..and this is your amazing version..thankyou for being you…. 🇫🇷 ❤ 🇫🇷
Thank you for your very kind words
Good luck janice with this new chapter of your channel , You have a lot to offer us
Thank you for your kind words
SUPER! Janice, this is great. Thrilled for you xoxo
Thank you so much!
I'm so glad to see you again.
Wow, I love your branding, and your story is being told with so much detail and evokes so many feelings and delight
Thank you so much for sharing and all the hard work you put in it!
❤❤❤❤
Thank you so much. I love it also and there’s just so much now I can do to help people and maybe give people an inside into what they might wanna do if they come here or just anything to fulfill their dreams. Yes, we both put a lot of work into it, but she really put a lot of work into it.
So good to see you again, have missed you..... Great video, you're such an inspiration! ❤
Thank you
❤ what a lovely video. I am so happy that you are gaining a community here that will benefit from your brave move and how wonderful that you share it for others to do the same.
Thank you so much!
I’m in 4 minutes and already subscribed (this is my first time seeing your videos). It’s not about France, per say (my goal is to move to Portugal)… it’s about you and your narration and you pursuing your DREAMS, later in life! I’m excited to watch the rest and to watch your other videos!
Oh my goodness, you made my day! Thank you so much! Let me know how your goal is going.
Hey! I was so excited to see you had posted a new video! This is Sumer that you've been talking to via email... :-)

Glad to see you back here on YT! I do see your posts on FB pretty much daily but I miss seeing them here plus it's on my desktop instead of my phone. I hope someone is inspired by you & tries going out of country while they have their health.

Good morning, Janice! This is a wonderful and inspiring video!

Oh wow what a liberating thought! Especially for me when i am almost feeling suicidal due to grief after losing my father just weeks back.... I am Depressed beyond words and need to find hope.... The ability to dream again
Yes, the ability to dream again is great, but just make sure that you’re just dreaming and not making a move too quick. Grief sucks.
Thank you for your video Janice. ❤
You are so welcome!
Dear Janice, this is a wonderful video, beautiful & sensitive. I love to watch it ! I also went to your new website which is elegant and a piece of art. I am patiently waiting for booking a consultation with you in September. Lots of success, Susanne

Great video. I did the same thing but started my journey in Portugal. I am now considering living in the south of France in a few years.
Oh wow a new friend
Beautiful branding! The video is excellent and love the voiceover. I’m currently an educator in Georgia and will retire next year. I’ll continue to follow you! You’re doing wonderful things! ❤
Thank you so much. Where are you a teacher I taught in Gainesville school district.

Thank you
And your video editing is flawless 😊
That is all due to Hadassah
I love your story. Thank you for sharing.
You are so welcome!
I've just come across your channel and have to commend you for uprooting and moving to another country. I'm in my 50s and had wondered if it's too late to do the same. You've made me realise that it isn't! Thank you! 😍
Absolutely not too late. You might want to download my e book to get an idea of what it is like
