OUR STORY: American photographer meets Russian-born artist, travels with camera, easel, and charming dog in search of a bygone era, artistic wonders, and architectural charm. Would they find creative inspiration? What challenges did they face? What snafu’s befell them? And how did Househunters France go – the search for a pied-à-terre – to find that peaceful, easy dog feeling?

As a photographer and artist of International Reputation, we were granted a Talent Visa which allows us to stay up to four years in France, hopefully on a path to residency as we love everything France: the culture, food, sea, mountains, wind sports, art museums, and especially historical villages!

We hope that you enjoy this diary of our discoveries, photography and art, as well as a valuable guide chock full of travel tips for both humans and their dogs in our Happy Dog Travel Blog. While other blogs simply gather information from the internet and AI for the sole purpose of garnishing affiliate marketing income, the guidance and advice we offer come from our actual experiences. But if you want to buy something from Toby’s Store, it’s A okay!

WHERE WE’VE BEEN
