At home in Paris, a trip to the ATM can be a treat…
And I look forward to dropping my husband’s shirts off at the laundry…

Yesterday, my Saturday errands included a stop at the pharmacy…
A stop at our neighborhood wine shop…
Cheese shop…
Local florist…
And corner bookstore…
I also indulged in a visit to the toy store around the corner in search of surprises for my granddaughters who I’ll be seeing later today…
We met friends for an apero at my favorite neighborhood café…
Then finished the afternoon with a walk along the river at the Louvre…
All within minutes of our apartment.
We don’t have a car and, living where we do, we hardly have need for the Metro or Uber. Everything we could want day-to-day is on our doorstep.

Maybe the best part is that this Parisian lifestyle is more affordable than you might imagine.

We spend less day to day and month to month when we’re here in Paris than we do when we’re at home in Panama.
How can that be?
I wondered, too, until my husband the accountant showed me the sums.
We’ll break down our cost of living in the heart of Paris and compare it, expense by expense, with our cost of living in Panama during our France Workshop taking place May 15.
If you’re dreaming of a new life in France, this is your chance to make a plan—with our help—to make that dream come true.
