Welcome!

​We’re Ines and Steffi -  two expats who turned their journeys into a passion for helping others settle into life in this beautiful part of France.

 

Ines arrived in Aix-en-Provence 20 years ago and worked in real estate with ERA. Her international life experience, having lived in Singapore and Sydney, gave her a deep understanding of the expat journey. For years, she supported new arrivals voluntarily, helping them navigate the challenges of settling in. Eventually, that passion led her to launch WELCOME AIX, dedicated to making the transition smoother for others.

 

Steffi came to France 30 years ago, married a Frenchman, and fully embraced the French culture. She ran her Language Training Center, which she later sold to focus on raising her two children and teaching German. Thanks to her French family, she is familiar with the ins and outs of local life — from navigating the education system to discovering the best bakeries, local markets, and schools in the area.

 

Together, we combine professional experience with personal insight. We’ve walked in your shoes and now, we’re here to guide you.

 

Let’s make Aix-en-Provence your home!
