The podcast talking about success stories of French people in Australia. I am Aurélie, I am from France and I have been living in Melbourne for many years. Since my beginnings down under, I have always been passionate about hearing the stories of my fellow French who found their place, their mission or their purpose so far away from their homeland. Did they have a dream when they moved to Australia? Or did their aspirations develop with their new life here? How did they make “it” happen? In every episode, our guests will share what it means to undertake a project out of their comfort zone, the cultural differences they faced and how being French in Australia has been a bonus, or a challenge, in their endeavours. With this podcast, I invite you to follow inspiring personal journeys into different fields: entrepreneurship, personal development, relationships or career to name only a few. The achievement of something positive, this is what success stories mean here and what we will discuss, with passion, honesty and of course a bit of an accent! I hope you will feel inspired by these conversations. I like hearing from you so don’t hesitate to share your feedback and suggest me new guests. You can find me on Instagram at Youaresofrench.thepodcast, or email me at youaresofrench.thepodcast@gmail.com To finish, I would love it if you could help me makes this podcast my success story by rating You Are So French the podcast on your favourite streaming platform with stars, the more the better!

In this new episode of the podcast, I meet with Elise Léger. If you are a French person in Australia, you probably receive emails from Elise every now and then. Being an active member of the French community is indeed one of Elise’s many hats. Elise is an elected member for the French Citizens in Australia, Fiji, Papua Guinea and she also sits at the Assembly of the French People Overseas representing French people of the Asia-Oceania region.
You would think that these roles keep her busy enough and they do but Elise is also a French teacher at the Alliance Française of Sydney and a PhD candidate.
In this conversation, we talk about the many faces of the French community in Australia. Elise tells us about her commitments led by her desire to be on the field, close to the people she represents. We also discuss why French politics still matters even when you have been living far away from your homeland for a long time.
I hope you’ll enjoy this candid and warm conversation with Elise.
Bonne écoute !
