The Chateau Chronicles

I bought a crumbling French château and moved my life across an ocean.

That was the beginning.

This channel now follows what comes after the leap — the long, unglamorous, deeply meaningful work of restoring an old château, building community around it, and sustaining a dream over time.

Here you’ll find:

- the realities of renovating and maintaining a historic property in rural France

- the emotional and logistical complexity of starting over later in life

- creative work, family transitions, and the quiet moments in between

- reflections on care, continuity, and what endures when circumstances change

This isn’t a highlight reel or a how-to channel. It’s an honest record of what it takes to live inside a dream once the novelty wears off.

If you’re interested in slow restoration, meaningful reinvention, and the real work behind beautiful places — you’re in the right place.

New videos follow the ongoing story.
