Plus, Susannah and Hugh share behind-the-scenes stories from shipping priceless antiques around the world, including a truly wild one involving Julia Child’s stove!\nIf you’re dreaming about a big move, building a business abroad, or just love Provence, antiques, and reinvention, this one’s for you.\n\nMore Information about Chez Pluie:\n\nwww.chezpluie.com\n\nhttps://www.instagram.com/chezpluie/\n\nhttps://www.chezpluie.com/pages/international-shipping-of-french-antiques-and-fine-art\n\nhttps://catalog.chezpluie.com/at-home-with-patricia-wells/full-view.html\n\nhttps://catalog.chezpluie.com/eb3ea471-160f-435e-8ae6-3eae990aae9c\n\nProvence Export App: \n\nhttps://apps.apple.com/us/app/provence-export/id6471974317\nhttps://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.export.export\n\nDon’t forget to subscribe, rate, and review if you’re enjoying the show, and thank you for being a part of our journey.\nContact info:\n\nInstagram: \n@the_eptons \n\n\n-Intro and outro music produced by Jeremy Silver-","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/w5-V_tvQVhjgzmIWip32walPmxY41WYo56j_9HxS7o4/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS84NDdm/NTYzYzlmOGY1NDcw/NDkzZDdjMzcwZWYx/YmM2NS5qcGc.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
