Paris Calling: What it Takes to Pull up Stakes

After a first visit to Paris, the question, What would it take to live there? started to percolate. Drawn to the history, beauty and value system of France, Piotter and his wife embarked on an implausible journey and gave up a comfortable middle-class life which suited neither of them. Risking homelessness, they stepped into the void, sold their house, gave away most of their possessions and stored what was left. They applied for and received visas, got on a plane and haven't looked back. They wake up every day in awe, thrilled to be in Paris.

PARIS CALLING: What it Takes to Pull up Stakes, is a quasi-instruction manual laced with vivid memories of an ex-bank robber under the influence and on the run from himself, who's come full circle. PARIS CALLING will entertain, pique the interest of and motivate anyone who's dared to ask, What if?
