We decided to buy a CHATEAU in France. Are we happier here?

From San Francisco to a chateau in a rural town in Brittany France. Why on Earth did we move and what is life like in the countryside? Lincoln continues more renovation work on the bathroom and we took the drone out to capture some stunning images.

Thanks! Here’s a few bucks for the tourist video.

Not trying to sound like Mr. Rodgers, but I would love to be your neighbor. The part of France you live in looks wonderful.

OMG! The three cats at the window! I always look forward to your videos. Always well done, the bits of animal humor always gives me a chuckle!

Love your vlogs. Moved from southern California to Tennesse nearly 30 years ago. From noise and congestion to 9 acres of quiet. Watching g foxes, deer, bob cats, turkeys and my cats and dogs is lovely. Fully understand your love of peace!! Hunters don't bother me...sometimes I get extra meat. Not bad.

I live in the high desert of California and I watch all the videos of people that have bought chateau’s and so glad an American has bought one. Looking forward to your sight.

I love living vicariously through you knowing full well at my age I will not fulfill such a dream.
Relaxing and enjoyable videos, continue to love your life. TX, USA

I can relate to this. After 35 years in Boston and New York, I'm excited about my new life in the south of France.

What a beautiful area! Love your tree lined driveway. I'm always so intrigued by the quietness of little French towns. It's a treat to walk on the road without fear of getting run over lol.

[PazuVaucluse]

welcome to France! I love it when Americans make it their home, I hope you bring some friendly energy, and new outlook on life that we need badly in France

Not sure you’ll EVER see this because I can’t seem to do your videos in any kind of order. Have been binge watching ever since I found you. I live in Springfield, MO, was widowed in my 50’s, love yard work(gardening sounds too fancy), and love creating lovely (well, to me), vignettes around my home. It’s quite challenging because it’s just me and I have lost core strength as time passes. Always know you are blessed to have an extremely resourceful and intelligent and seemingly kind and loving spouse to share this adventure with. By the way..LOVE his work britches! I am most at home in yard clothes, usually black, but his britches have a snazzy look. Are they something French you purchase over there or can us regular folk have access to them?! You have chosen something beautiful in life to experience, one day at a time. I hope you never tire of sharing the beauty and blessings (and hard core work!), you are experiencing!!

After living my entire life in Manhattan (the last ten right next to the Holland Tunnel) I completely understand why you would want to move to the country side in France. Your treelike driveway is my dream.

I’m from the Loire valley i live in TN for 35 years I really enjoyed you vlog

[maisonstringbean]

How do you guys not have more subscribers? Your cinematography is great! I watch other chateau channels but yours are never boring.

We drove about 4, 500km from Vienna in Austria to all over in France and stayed 10 days in Brittany near Lamballe next so the sea. We absolutely loved it. The people, the food, the countryside, the sea... it was great.
Thank you for charing your journey.

[louiselewis]

I never wondered why you moved. I only wish I could do the same. Beautiful!! Good luck with the bathroom Reno-such hard work! Have a good week.

[MrAurel]

Hello everyone. Glad to see and heard strangers like my country enough to quit their own country to live in mine. And specially in countrysides. When French big town are about to look the same, we have way much places presenting their own identities. In France we called it " Les terroirs", and it has a historical link with gastrononomy, languages, or architecture.
Congratulations with this hardwork

[rosemariedeschenes]

Love the three cats bird watching 🤣🤣🤣My cats do the same. Love how your chateau cat was sitting on the table watching the beautiful sunset. What a life ❤. Now if only you could train your dog to dig holes for planting trees and veggies 🤣🤣🤣The beaches and century old churches were spectacular. Thanks for sharing 😍😘

[peterwhite]

The animals get me all the time. Lincoln, I felt back watching you carry that toilet down those stairs. WHEW!

[valariebresee]

I'm a Canadian and l would move to France but not to buy a Chateau lol but your place looks like heaven. French people seem to enjoy life .

[rhondadean]

Amanda, I laughed hard at your silly cute dog digging diligently on his tunnel to gopher den but, the cats, omg lmbo....hilarious . That's too funny. I love your small village. Sublime. Everything is just too pretty.
Poor Lincoln carrying that heavy toilet so far, he deserves a back rub. Great show. ❤️
