What a great idea! I love what your doing and this is a fab addition. In my Substack- la Ramoneta- I share tips of what to see and do in the South of France. I would love to be part of your list, but I might be too small
I may eventually make it to this list. My blog has accidentally been a travel blog through France and I talk about street art I've seen in France with more posts to come. But really, I'm a single mom based in California raising a young daughter who would like to make a jump to live in France.
No, I don't live in France but I would like to. I think it would be nice to raise my kid there. We loved finding plagrounds everywhere we went. I currently live in California. I was joking how my Substack accidentally became a blog on places traveled in France. We were there for a few weeks this past summer. For me, I've been to Paris seven times but it was my daughter's first time anywhere in France. She's 4. I even enrolled her in summer camp in Paris and she had a wonderful time.
That all sounds wonderful Julie it must have been fun! But for #franceStack its a library of writers FROM France. Thanks for your interest though.Warm regardsJudy
We are two dads and a daughter that moved to Carcassonne a little over a year ago. I write silly and sassy posts about our misadventures in the south of France. 🙏🏼🇫🇷❤️
I am delighted to let you know that I have added you to #FranceStack, our library for francophiles. The one place where Francophiles can immerse themselves in articles from those living in France, to better understand France.
I've just added your excellent Substack https://stylebeat.substack.com to #FranceStack, our library for Francophiles. Welcome! You're in fabulous company.
Hi Judy, I'm new on Substack with a blog on French history called Gallia Incognita, about places and people, historical curiosities, dark tales and plenty of other mysteries and deep dives for francophiles who want to know about the more offbeat facets of France. I'd love to be part of this #FranceStack network for an opportunity to interact with others who love France.
I have just added your wonderful Substack 'Franchement' (https://franchement.substack.com/) to #FranceStack our library of Substacks written from France for francophiles. There are bout 100 in the library to date. If you know any others I've missed, then please let me know!
Warm regards

So great to stumble upon this post! I think this is such an excellent resource. I'm actually doing something super similar over at Girls' Guide to Living Abroad (soon to be Home/Abroad). I compiled a database of over 100 Substack writers who are writing about living abroad in their various corners of the world.

I plan to do a post similar to this where I also put the names and Substacks in an actual post, rather than just having them in a database form.
It's a much more general living abroad stack. And I bet there's lots of room for collaboration here!
A wonderful list! I would love to be included.
At last... I missed your comment before!
Let me join #francestack as francophone:) my substack is bi-lingual English - french -while living now in Brussels :)
Hello David Gemeinhardt
