Yo!

We’re Don Russell and Theresa Conroy, two lifelong Philadelphians who moved to France in 2022. Today, we live in Rennes, a very cool medieval city exactly 90 minutes by high-speed rail from Paris, in Brittany. Some other things about us:

• We love dogs! Especially Siberian Huskies.

• We love beer (Don wrote the Joe Sixpack beer column in the Daily News; Theresa is a certified beer judge).

• Theresa is a certified yoga therapist. She specializes in teaching yoga for movement disorders (e.g. Parkinson’s Disease).

• Theresa is fluent in French. Don is learning.

• Go Birds!
