French,
Brutally honest,

Monthly.

Carnet de voyage, a monthly visual diary from a Frenchman who's gone native abroad. No clichés. No croissants. No Eiffel Tower.

First Sunday of the month. Unsubscribe whenever, no hard feelings (well, a few).

About

I'm Jacques. From La Rochelle. Now causing minor cultural incidents in abroad.

Coming Fall 2026

I Told My Therapist

A monthly solo podcast about expat life, therapy, and the slow comedy of becoming yourself. The newsletter gets the first episode early.

Not yet. But soon.

The first BtchyFrench drop is landing October 2026. Think: things you'll actually wear. Things that make sense to anyone who's ever been French in a non-French situation. No "Eiffel Tower & Croissants 4ever" cliché merch. I'd rather sell nothing.
