What I Really Think About Living in France — As a Russian Immigrant
Hi, I’m Tim 👋
I’ve been living in France for four years now — and in this video, I’m sharing what it’s really like to live here as a Russian immigrant.
The good, the bad, and the beautiful — from the culture of living and individuality to bureaucracy, work-life balance, and everyday life in France.
This isn’t a travel vlog — it’s my real experience after years of building a new life here.
If you’ve ever dreamed of moving to France or just want to understand how it feels to start over in a new country, this video is for you.
💬 Let me know in the comments —
What do you love (or dislike) about France?
Have you ever lived abroad? I’d love to hear your story.
