This is where this book will prove invaluable. Written specifically for retirees (and prospective retirees) in France, Retiring in France is worth its weight in sunshine.

As with all life-changing decisions, the key to a successful retirement in France is planning ahead and doing as much research as possible before you go. This is where this book will prove invaluable. Written specifically for retirees (and prospective retirees) in France, Retiring in France is worth its weight in sunshine. General information about France isn't difficult to find, but reliable and up-to-date information in English especially intended for retirees planning to live in France isn't easy to find, least of all in one volume. Our aim in publishing this book is to help fill this void and provide the comprehensive, practical information necessary for a relatively trouble-free retirement. You may have visited France on holiday and may even own a holiday-home there, but retiring there (whether seasonally or permanently) is a different matter altogether. Adjusting to a different environment, culture and language can be a traumatic and stressful experience, and France is no exception.

However, with a copy of Retiring in France to hand you'll have a wealth of information at your fingertips. Information is derived from a variety of sources, both official and unofficial, not least the hard won personal experiences of the author and his researchers, friends, colleagues and many foreigners already enjoying their retirement in France. Retiring in France is a comprehensive handbook on a wide range of everyday subjects and represents the most up-to-date and comprehensive source of essential information for anyone planning to retire in France. Within these pages you will find vital information and advice on topics such as the cost of living, retirement hot spots, getting to and from France, public transport and motoring, buying a home, healthcare and financial matters. Suggestions are also provided to help smooth your `settling-in' period and help you make the best use of your new-found leisure time. In short, everything you need to help make your retirement in France as fulfilling and successful as possible. Most retirees in France would agree that, all things considered, they love living there - and wild horses couldn't drag them away. Retiring in France, even for just part of the year, is a wonderful way to enrich and revitalise your life, and it may even help you live longer. I trust this book will help you to avoid the pitfalls of retirement in France and smooth your way to a happy and rewarding future in your golden years.
