About Me


Welcome! I’m so happy you’re here!


They say home is where the heart is. But what happens when your heart tells you it’s time to leave everything behind?

I had it all – a beautiful senior apartment in America. The kind of place most people dream of retiring to. Comfortable. Secure. Perfect.

I’m Carolyn, and at an age when most people are settling into retirement, I bought this 170-year-old house in rural France. No, I’m not independently wealthy. No, I don’t speak perfect French. And no, I had no idea what I was getting myself into.

So if you’ve ever wondered if it’s too late to start over, if you’ve ever dreamed of doing something that everyone else thinks is crazy, or if you just want to see what happens when a little old lady takes on a big stone house in France…

…then subscribe and join me on this adventure. Because this little old lady could, and did, and keeps on doing.
