Hi 👋 I’m Alex — an American living in France, writing about food, travel, and life abroad.
This is the start of Alex and Beyond, a place where I’ll share stories from life in the South of France, travel journeys, and food adventures. Before this adventure, I spent 15 years working in tech across Washington D.C., London, and Amsterdam.
Now I’m exploring a slower, tastier life, often with my husband, Mehmet, and our dog, Bindi 🐾 in tow. You can watch our dog-friendly travel adventures on our YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/@alexandmehmet
