Our writers are a mix of journalists, authors and passionate bloggers. Many are expats who live in France and love to share their knowledge and expertise with others. Some have written books about France – guides, history, culture, cookery and more and others are experts in the practical daily life issues of France.
All of our writers have one thing in common: they are Francophiles and write to entertain, inform and sometimes – to surprise!

Janine Marsh is editor of The Good Life France website and The Good Life France Magazine. She lives in the north of France with an assortment of animals who do their best to disturb her while she is trying to work. She spends most of her time exploring France from one end to the other.
Lucy Pitts was a barrister in London who chucked in the legal towel for a better quality of life. A brilliant copywriter, intrepid traveller and instinctive adventurer who can, and has driven, a busload of journalists over a narrow bridge in the middle of nowhere France when no one else would. She lives in the UK and spends as much time as possible at her holiday home in the Vendée. She’s also the editor of Sussex Exclusive Magazine
