We Live Here Now

About the Substack

We lived in the US for most of our lives. We live in France now. It's a lot to take in. Practical and impractical discoveries from our lives here with odd connections, historical bits, food and music.

About Keith Christiansen

American, ex-NYC teacher, current migrant. Now in France, writing about daily life, dislocation, and the weird middle of change. Not a guide. Not a francophile. Just trying to notice things. Iโ€™ll try to keep it interesting.
