Jenny SMITH AKA French Wordsmith explains…
Over my 21 years living and working in France, I have experienced the highs and lows of moving lock, stock and barrel to a new country and have the tear-stained t-shirts as proof of the red-tape tangles!
The challenges overcome and the lessons learnt led me to develop these professional translation and administration services so that others may better navigate the bureaucratic maze and find a life-raft in stormy seas.
