Once upon a time

there was a middle-aged American couple who needed a change. A really really BIG change. They were in jobs that they didn’t enjoy, doing work that was exhausting and unfulfilling. So what did they do about it?

Well Diane, being the project manager that she was, created a presentation for her husband, Neal. One that outlined spending some time (maybe a long time) living abroad. Doing what she loved, photography, and what he loved, writing.

At first, he wasn’t sure. I mean what would that look like exactly? Isn’t that pretty darn irresponsible? How could they afford it?

But after a sleepless night he decided. Let’s do it. So the planning, the saving, the French lessons began. You see…part of Diane’s plan, was to move to France. For at least a year, and maybe longer if they could figure that out.
