Bonsoir
J'avoue etre dans la mm situation que toi. En fait tu as un site qui est trés bien fait (si on sait ce que l'on cherche) c'est : http://www.immi.gov.au/ J'avoue qu'il n'y a jamais été fait référence que chaque membre d'un couple marié ne pouvait le prendre. ils parlent uniquement de personne à charge (à rattacher dessus, et qeu tu ne peux pas) Le mieux serait de téléphoner directement. Au moins tu seras sûre. Maintenant la demande est individuelle, elle ne concerne qu'un individus. Je ne pense pas qu'il soit plus difficile d epartir en couple que seule. Pour les logements les couples sont acceptés, voir les Backpackers, pour les share-accomodation, il y a moins d'offre pour les couples mais entre nous il y en a tout de mm suffisament pour faire son choix, aprés tout dépend aussi de là où tu veux aller. Pour le boulot, vous n'etes pas obligés de travailler ensemble (j parle ds l'optique ou 2 whv sont possible ds une mm famille/couple) vous travaillez autant d'heure que vous voulez, six mois maximum chez le mm employeurs respectivements. Pour ce qui est des recherches, tu peux regarder sur internet de france, ou sur place (net, face to face) pour te faire une idée y a des bons sites comme seek, govtjob.com, etc, y a le site du civi aussi. Vous comptez voyager et travailler, voyager apprendre l'anglais travailler ? Nous, pour l'un c'est voyager travailler, l'autre apprendre la langue (suivre des cours d'anglais) voyager et travailler, et notre fils profiter lol la situation est plutot compliquée, j'en perds mon latin ds tous ces visas !! j'espère ne pas tomber des nus lol 😕 A bientot !!😉 laeticia

bonjour
merci pour ta réponse tout d abord je ne pense pas qu il y est une restriction au nombre de visa par famille car j ai survolé plusieurs conversations a ce sujet et une femme et son mari étaient parti a un mois d interval et ils n ont pas mentionnés s ils avaient fait une ou deux demande de visa
nous nous pensons partir avec 5000E OU 6000E pour avoir le temps de ce faire au décalage horaire de prendre nos marques (acheter une voiture , de voir les différentes opportunités au niveau du taf.....) de voyager bien entendu et de ce perfectionner en anglais
comme tu vois on attend bcp de cette expérience si elle venait à se concrétiser je pense faire ma demande de visa dans 2 OU 3 mois le temps de régler certaine chose et si cela est positif de partir 2 ou 3 mois après , car si g bien compris un fois le visa obtenu tu as un an pour partir et a la date de ta première entrée sur le territoire il est valable un an (corrige moi si je me trompe)
si d autre personne regarde cette discussion et ceux qui ont la réponse ça serait cool de nous dire pour les visa de couple (marié) merci d avance
merci a toi NYTHADA et a bientot🙂
le whv est pour les célibataires ou mariés sans enfants. j'ai eu confirmation sur un autres site via forum.
aprés oui tu peux acheter ton visas maintenant et partir l'année prochaine, ils ne prendront en compte que la date de votre arrivée.
Lundi, perso j'appelle l'ambassade pour savoir ... car comme nous avons un enfant je pensais prendre le ELICOS Sector: Temporary (subclass 570) visa, car je souhaite suivre des cours d'anglais, j'ai déjà trouvé faut jsute que je fasse mon choix entre deux lol, et savoir s'il y avait d'autre possibilité pour un couple non marié mais avec un enfant 😛
Et comme tu le dis si quelqu'un si connait mieux ou du moins l'a vécu et connait ta réponse comme la mienne ça serait cool !
Perso si ça se fait ça serait pour janvier février ... j'aimerais plutot mais faut etre patient lol
A bientot aurmoh 😏
bonjour
je viens un peu aux nouvelles savoir si tu as eu d autres infos si vous etes toujours motives pour partir
nous oui on est tellement motivés mais on a du mal a trouver toutes les infos celles de bases ca va
mais apres ou acheter un voiture et comment? ou attérir ?en fin plein de petite chose qui nous fait monter
la pression car moi je pourrais y aller comme ca mais mon mari n a pas envie de galerer a l arrivé car on a vu
sur des forums qu il y en a qui arrive a 2h du mat fait du stop et 3h de marche pour rejoindre leur ville
j ai pas envie de me retrouver comme ca apres 20h d avion enfin tout commentaire est le bien venu
a bientot et bon courage
Coucou 😉
ça avance lentement je dirais lol
mais on sait quel visa prendre pour commencer on ne sait pas encore vraiment fixé sur la ville, mais ça ne serait tarder 😏
j'ai vu un peu pour les vols, les compagnies les plus avantageuses, fait du repérage sur le marché de l'emploi (via site éco, forum = trés important d'ailleurs, et le pot sur place)
les transferts si on part pour noosa etc, j'ai pas regarder pour les autres possible destinations
pourquoi tu comptes aller ou ?enfin vous voulez aller où?
C'est marrant, mon coinjoint est plutot comme toi, partir comme ça, ça ne le dérange pas bien au contraire.
alors que perso si tout n'est pas organisé à l'avance ça me stress limite !
En tout cas pareil, si jamais j'ai des tuyaux je te dirais, enfin celon où tu vas
Quant à la motivation, elle est toujours là.
a toute !
Coucou
et bas je vais te dire que je ne sais pas ou nous allons nous poster on ne
sais pas car en gros a part les beaux paysages et les kangourous l australie
c est vaste pour nous, vous vous savez et quel a été votre motivation pour cet
endroit précis? vous parler bien Anglais? que faite vous dans la vie? et que compter

Salut
Nous couple de 28 et 31 ans (enfin on les auras le mois prochain lol) mon conjoint bosse ds un centre social pour délinquants, qt à moi je suis responsable de magasin. Nous avons un petit garçon de 9mois.
Nous comptons partir 3 / 4 mois pour commencer. Histoire de voir. on aurait voulu plus, mais ayant un enfant on ne peut faire la demande du whv (on aurait eu le temps ce mois ci concernant mon conjoint)
Lui est trilingue (allemand anglais et français biensure), qt à moi plutot monolingue mdr (enfin l'anglais je le comprend à la lecture et moyen à l'oral car l'accent me perturbe lol)
j'ai trouvé des sites oui pour les logement, j'y suis mm pas que j'ai déjà eu deux propositions, pourtan tj'ai mis que j'étais encore en france .. va comprendre maios c cool je vois là ou il y a plus d'offre !
pour le choix j'ai pris plusieur critères en fait , que j'ai regroupé ....
le climat
la démo
l'économie
le prix "de vie" (loyer, bouffe etc en fonction du marché éco et des salaires potentiels en misant le plus bas à chaque fois)
l'ambiance (calme, fetard, touristique)
par rapport au climat on s'est arreté sur queensland .. et pusi site à certaine discussion je me suis dit pourquoi pas western australia (perth), et finalement par rapport au prix des cours, et les sites de logements ou j'ai eu beau chercher je trouvais rien par rapport à queensland j'ai stopé là lol
maintenant noosa ? southport ? surfers ? peut etre cairns ... mais j'avoue que nous hésitons que entre la gold coast ou la sunchine coast. c'est trés touristique mais bon (GC surtout)
Si tu veux on peut aussi discuter sur msn , fait moi savoir si ok, je te rajouterais à ce moment là
a toute😏
coucou
ca fait plaisir de voir que tu reponds à mes messages de detresse
comment vas tu moi ca va mais mon mari me met en stress alors
apres ton message j ai ete sur la carte d autralie et j ai visualisé
un peu ou tout ce touvais, queenland, noosa, perth.....
et c est vrai c est un des coins les plus variés et ensoleillé
par contre tu me dis que tu as deja des propositions mais au
niveau travail ou logement enfin ca me dis de communiqué sur msn
voici mon adress aurmoh@hotmail.fr
a bientot aurelie
bonjour,
je profite de la conversation pour poser une question,
je suis français, et j'envisage, comme vous, de partir travailler en australie via working holidays avec mon épouse (non européenne). Nous avons tous deux moins de 30 ans.
D'après vous, pouvons nous bénéficier tous les deux du visa working holidays ?
Merci
Pierre

Bonjour,
mon ami veut partir à Melbourne 2/3 ans pour terminer ses études. Il devrait commencer début août ou septembre. Actuellement je suis responsable de boutique comme toi. Je m'inquiète pour le visa que je peux obtenir. Pour le visa vacances travail il me semble très difficile d'avoir 3000€ sur mon compte. Et je ne sais pas dans quel domaine trouver du travail une fois sur place, puisque je ne parle pas anglais. J'ai droit à 120h d'anglais avec mon DIF, mais j'attends la réponse de mon employeur. Nous avons parler de mariage pour simplifier tout ce qui touche à l'administratif. Peux tu me parler de votre expérience? Merci

Hi everyone,
My name is Deborah, I’m French. I’m married and have two children. I’m a clinical psychologist specializing in psychotraumatology, and I’m also pursuing medical studies.
For some time now, I’ve been seriously considering moving to the United States. My long-term goal is to practice medicine in the U.S., with a particular interest in forensic pathology. I know the journey is demanding (USMLE, residency, fellowship, etc.), but I’m ready to commit to several years of hard work.
For now, I’m focused on building this project thoughtfully. I want to improve my English, better understand the American system, and connect with people who’ve already gone through this process or are living in the U.S.
I have a few questions:
- Are there any doctors or international students here who’ve successfully matched into a U.S. residency? - When did you start preparing for the USMLE? - What advice would you give to someone still in medical school? - Which states would you recommend for a future career in forensic pathology, with a good quality of life and good schools for kids? - Is it better to do an observership or a research fellowship before applying for residency? - What are, in your opinion, the pitfalls to avoid when planning such a project?
Thank you so much to everyone who takes the time to respond. I’d really appreciate any advice or experiences you can share!

Hi everyone, my son’s school is offering him a one-month Erasmus trip to Ireland, but he has to find a junior cycle school that will accept him and a host family on his own. Honestly, we’re struggling—we’ve contacted two schools and haven’t heard back! If you have any leads...

Hi there,
I’m considering moving to Miami to live and work for a few years.
If anyone knows what the administrative formalities are—both for getting a work permit and for the steps and reputable organizations to contact (since I imagine there are scammers in this space) when buying a studio in Miami or Miami Beach—I’d love any info you can share!
Have a great day

Hi everyone,
I’d love to hear your thoughts and experiences about marrying a Cuban and moving to Cuba (not the other way around!). Yes, some of us actually *want* to stay on the island! Is it possible to work there without too much hassle, or is it really complicated?

Hi everyone,
I’m heading to Bangkok for a 5-month internship, and I’m wondering about the budget because I’ve read all sorts of things—so I decided to post here to get answers tailored to my situation! :D I found housing that costs me 7,000 baht (I know it’s a bit pricey, but it’s super convenient...), which works out to about 160 € all-inclusive. So, I was wondering if it’s realistic to live on 500 or 600 € per month, and if so, under what conditions? Is that enough, considering I’ll be working 40 hours a week?
Thanks in advance for your replies—I hope they’ll reassure me!

Hi everyone,
WEP offers loads of different projects, including one I really like: helping and volunteering on a farm, particularly in South America (Peru or Argentina).
I’d love to know if anyone has tried this project or knows someone who has... or has done something similar? I’d like to get some feedback before diving into the adventure.
If so, could you share your thoughts on the project, any tips, etc.?
Thanks to anyone who replies!

Hi there,
Our departure time is getting closer (we have less than 2 years left—it’s both a long time and so short!). To start preparing seriously, we’ll need quite a bit of info. If anyone knows the rates charged by movers for a crate to French Polynesia, or what pitfalls to avoid (I know you can get quotes directly from movers, but I’d love insights from actual customers😉).
Are there any special requirements before leaving France (aside from taxes...)?
Thanks to everyone for your help—every bit of info is useful. We’re aiming for a departure around 06/2010 (just need to save up a little more...). Thanks again!

Hi, I’m a self-employed physiotherapist in France, and as my wife (a nurse) and I look into working abroad in about two years, I’ve been offered an equivalence to become a respiratory physiotherapist in Switzerland. Actually, I’m currently doing a postgraduate diploma in pediatric respiratory physiotherapy and want to specialize in that area. Anyway, that’s not the main point—could anyone explain the pros and cons of doing this job in Switzerland? Based on the paperwork I’ve received, the equivalence seems purely administrative or almost... What about working conditions, quality of life, salaries, etc.?
Thanks for your replies. PS: Same question for my wife, a nurse, regarding her integration.
Thanks, Nicolas and Bérengère

Hi everyone!
I’m looking for information about jobs in early childhood in New Caledonia. I’m currently a childminder in a MAM (multi-accueil) and I’ve also worked for about 6 years in several daycare centers as a childcare assistant. In the summer of 2026, my husband is being transferred to New Caledonia. We’ll be living near Nouméa. Do you know if the early childhood sector is a good field for jobs there? Can’t wait to discover this island! Right now, we’re in the middle of all the administrative paperwork for our 3 kids, finding housing, bringing our cat to the territory, and so on! Thanks for your feedback!!

Hi everyone!
I’d like to move to Spain, specifically to Málaga. To do that, I’d like to know if I’ll need any official documents from France to work there, or anything like that... I’d also love to hear from people who’ve moved to Spain for work—do Spaniards like the French? Is it hard to fit in? What are the salary ranges for a ready-to-wear salesperson? And is it easy to find housing?
Thanks! 🙂

Hi everyone! 👨🏾🤝👨🏻
My partner and I currently live in Antibes—we’re both freelancers working remotely. We’re thinking about potentially moving to Italy.
We’d like to settle near the French border, between Ventimiglia and San Remo (this is important because we need access to Nice Airport twice a month). ✈️
I’d love to hear about life in this region! We’re looking for a quiet spot close to the sea. Any recommendations? As for the paperwork, is it difficult to get everything official? Is finding housing tough in this area? What kind of guarantees are usually required? If any kind soul could shed some light on this, we’d really appreciate it! 🥺🏻
Thanks so much for your help and advice! ☺️

Hi everyone,
I’d like to get some information about my eligibility for the DV Lottery.
About my background: • I earned a *Bac Pro* through VAE (*Validation des Acquis de l’Expérience*), issued by the *Éducation nationale*. • I also have a professional certification as a *Conseiller en Insertion* (Employment Counselor), issued by the Ministry of Labor. • Altogether, this adds up to a *Bac+2* level.
I’d like to know if this level qualifies me to apply for the DV Lottery.
Regarding my work experience: • I work as an *Employment Counselor*. • I checked on O*Net Online for the classification: Job Zone 4, SVP Range: 7.0 – <8.0. • I only have one year of experience, but I handle similar tasks in business creation.
So my question is: can I apply for the DV Lottery despite my relatively short experience, given that my job falls under Job Zone 4?
Thanks in advance for your answers and advice! !

Hi everyone,
I’m looking for info on villages around Aix, like Fuveau, Bouc-Bel-Air, or even Éguilles and Venelles? We’re a couple with a child living in the Paris region, and I’ll be relocating to Aix-en-Provence in spring 2026. We’d love to swap our apartment for a house with a pool within 20-30 minutes max of central Aix, with a budget of around 650k €.
In terms of climate and geography, I’ve read that Aix is in a basin where it can get really hot. What about the surrounding villages that are a bit more elevated, like Venelles? Is it just as stifling?
For a family, which area would you recommend?

Starting this spring, we want to settle near Aix-en-Provence. We're tired of living in the mountains with all the snow—we really need some sunshine and a fresh start. Is it hard to find a house to rent there? What about prices? If you have any great tips or useful info about the area, we’d love to hear it. I work in education and want to do prevention work in Marseille or Aix—are there jobs in the social sector?
Anyway, we need tons of info, but we’re sure we’re going to take the leap—no hesitation, adventure is adventure!!! Thanks for your help and any experiences you can share.

Hi,
I’m an osteopath and I’d like to set up and open an osteopathy practice in Thailand. I don’t have a precise location in mind yet, but I’m thinking maybe Hua Hin. I saw there’s an osteopath based in Phuket, so I wrote to him for some info, but he still hasn’t replied🤪!
So I’m reaching out to people who live there or know the country well: I’d like to know what the best ways are to advertise and get known in Thailand. Are there any local classifieds newspapers? First, I’d like to practice from my apartment. Is that allowed in Thailand? Ideally, I’d like to work part-time in a private hospital as an osteopath. I’m thinking that in Thailand, the medical field is much more open than in Europe!!! Has anyone seen an osteopath or chiropractor working in a Thai hospital? Do you know the price of a consultation?
Any info you can share will be super helpful! Thanks in advance[;)!!!]

Hello everyone,
We’re a small family from the south of France, with a 2-year-old little boy, and we’re dreaming of starting a new adventure abroad by opening our own business. For now, we haven’t chosen a specific destination yet.
We mainly speak French, with a basic level of Spanish and English, and we’re ready to improve these two languages if needed. We’re looking for a multicultural, safe country with quality healthcare and good schools accessible for our son. We’d also love a pleasant place with a mild climate where life is good.
Our idea is to travel to different countries to explore, compare, and refine our project. We’d be really happy to read your tips, experiences, or anecdotes if you’ve already undertaken a similar project or if you know key points to anticipate.
Thanks in advance for your shares and help—it would really help us move forward with our project! 😄
Hi everyone,
I’m heading to Dublin as an au pair in a few weeks.
I’m looking for a reputable language school. It’s so hard to choose! Has anyone already done a language stay in Dublin? Any tips? Thanks so much! :)
Hi everyone, so I’m planning to go study at a community college in the U.S., but the only snag is which one—there are so many options over there! I’ve heard about one in California, Diablo Valley College, and another in Florida, Valencia College. I know both states are super attractive for tourism, but my main criteria are teaching quality and price. I’m open to any advice, comments, or suggestions—thanks in advance! The start of the semester is coming up, and I’m a little nervous...
READY, SET...... GO...... TO YOUR KEYBOARDS!!!!!!!! lol

Hi! I’m looking for an apartment in Malaga from September (2025) until January for my Erasmus exchange, but I’m not finding much, and it seems like there are a lot of scams. Does anyone have any leads or tips? Thanks!^^
