The Book We Wish We Had at the Start of Our Journeys

Who We Are

The American in Paris began as a simple chronicle of one man’s immigration journey and grew into a team-based long-term project to help Americans legally and culturally adapt to life in France. Learn about our team here. To work with our parent company, Plume Content, click here.

Comprehensive Video Courses

We’ve taken everything we’ve learned on our immigration journeys and bottled that knowledge into two courses. One on Long Term Stay Visitor and one on Profession Liberale.

If you prefer to set up a private consultation about about au pair, student, visitor, Profession Liberale, Passeport Talent – Artist visas, or have questions about marriage in France or just don’t know where to start

Please contact our team here. You can read feedback from those who have done paid consultations with us here. We also have a private facebook group you can join for free here.
