The fifth monthly Invisible Bordeaux podcast is now available for your listening pleasure and I hope you're sitting especially comfortably... because this happens to be the first of the occasional episodes in English! Hurrah! This way then for some quality conversation with arguably the most famous Australian in Bordeaux, the one and only Mike Foster, founder of the Bordeaux Expats blog and social media community.
Together we touch upon the thinking behind Bordeaux Expats, about the story of his relocation from Sydney to Bordeaux via London, and his current take not just on Bordeaux but also on Saint-André-de-Cubzac, the small town just to the north of Bordeaux which is possibly best known as the birthplace of the renowned ocean explorer and film-maker Jacques Cousteau, but is also the place that Mike now calls home.
Here is the podcast, which you'll also find on miscellaneous platforms including Anchor, Apple Podcasts/iTunes, Spotify, Google Podcasts, Breaker, PocketCasts, RadioPublic, Overcast, Podbean, Podcast Addict and Stitcher.
