Me and my spouse work in Algeria in the Sahara desert and interested in getting a place in France to live during the times we are off. My question is can you live there w/o working or going to school?

Hi, you can live anywhere in the EU with a European passport, access to life in France rather depends upon your nationality, not place of work.

Hi there, We are moving to France from Canada and wondering about our daughter attending school, if we only go 3 months at a time will a school admit our 9 year old and also does it cost us anything?
