Another World

The Home Management and Relocation Specialists

Another World has built its strength and specialisation on Charlotte Ellison's Franco-British background. Culturally and linguistically bilingual, her experience and understanding of both French and Anglo-Saxon personal, social, professional and cultural ways has permitted her to be an invaluable intermediary to all concerned in the business of relocation, property management and in providing the most complete assistance to expatriates in France. Her diplomacy and communication skills, her strong sense of ethics and justice together with her own personal experience of living abroad in different cultures places her in the ideal position for recognising and resolving the difficulties of moving to and living in another country and integrating into a new community and culture.

At Another World, we are happy and proud to assist you at all levels of your Provence adventure.
