Original post
Je suis en train de négocier un contrat de travail local pour travailler chez Peugeot_Citroën au Brésil. Je suis Ingénieur Méthodes mais je n'ai aucune notion des coûts actuels pour vivre sur place (mes souvenir dans ce domaine dates de 1977, puisque j'ai déjà vécu 2ans à Rio de Janeiro) et donc aucune notion du salaire auquel je peux prétendre. Qui peux me donner des informations sur ces sujets, car cela devient urgent. Merci d'avance.
Bonjour Niviti,
Merci pour le renseignement, en fait j'ai maintenant deux propositions pour Porto Real, comme ingénieur spécialiste en automation et moyens de manutentions (convoyeurs et autres) et ingénieur spécialiste en fluides et montage de moteurs, entre 6500 et 7000 Reis, mais avec un contrat "Pessoa Juridica, nao é regime CLT Brasil". Je ne connais pas la différence entre les deux types de contrat. Si tu as des renseignements sur le sujet, je te remercie de me les communiquer. A bientôt Papounet8

Bonjour!
J'ai habité huit mois à Resende il y a quelques années, mon mari travaillait pour un sous-traitant de Peugeot à la construction de l'usine, et l'histoire du contrat local, ils la lui ont faite aussi (vous comprenez, vous êtes déjà au Brésil pour notre fournisseur, administrativement nous ne pouvons pas faire de contrat d'expat' mais seulement un contrat local, à R$ 3000/mois à l'époque, cela faisait 12.000f/mois, etc), résultat ils ne l'ont pas eu et les ennuis ont recommencé pour eux... il faut dire que la condition d'expat' Peugeot était mirifique car personne ne voulait y aller : des promotions incroyables (d'où la blague qui circulait parmi les — vrais — ingénieurs brésiliens : quel est la façon la plus rapide de devenir ingénieur? — réponse : Air France) avec les augmentations qui allaient bien, un sursalaire paraît-il très important (mais j'en ignore le pourcentage) plus USD300/jour les trois premiers mois, 200 ensuite! A l'époque un dollar valait R$2...
Si en plus ils commencent à vouloir vous embaucher en free-lance et non en emploi "de carteira assinada" (normal, vous n'avez pas les papiers pour occuper un emploi brésilien, seulement un d'expat'... alors à vous de vous débrouiller avec les ennuis administratifs, amendes, expulsion...) cela sent l'arnaque à plein nez!
Pour les salaires, les cadres brésiliens perçoivent en brut à peu près les deux tiers du salaire de leur homologue en France. En prenant R$2, 5/€ (cela fluctue), on vous propose donc 2600 à 2800€ bruts, est-ce que cela représente les deux tiers de ce que vous percevriez en France pour la même fonction, avec votre expérience, etc? (donc 3900 à 4200€/mois) Si c'est le cas, on est sur la bonne base de salaire (à condition que vous ne gardiez pas de frais en France, du type garde-meuble voire logement ou crédit, que vous partiez seul...) mais... ce n'est pas un salaire! Il vous faut en plus payer une assurance médicale (pour les salariés, elle est généralement prise en charge par l'employeur, et elle est très chère — et indispensable, en plus il faut bien lire les petits caractères, elles sont de plus en plus restrictives), des cotisations retraites (a priori à la CFE si vous ne comptez pas passer votre vie au Brésil)... et supporter toute la fiscalité brésilienne, qui ne cesse d'augmenter et atteint pratiquement le niveau français. Prudence!
Souhaitez-vous que j'évoque votre problème avec une personne qui fait des prestations d'assistance technique au Brésil et qui a déjà travaillé sur ce site, pour lui demander plus de conseil?
Sinon, pour le logement, il y a la "Bolsa de Imoveis de Resende", qui regroupe un certain nombre d'agents immobiliers de la ville, les prix sont raisonnables mais pas évident de trouver des logements meublés... Dans le budget, ne pas oublier l'IPTU (impôts locaux, en général prélevé avec le loyer) et pour les appartements et résidences fermées, les "taxas de condominio", qui peuvent être chères, le dépôt de garantie qui ne vous sera jamais remboursé, l'achat des meubles etc.
J'ai bien aimé Resende, c'est une "ville normale de la région", mais avec l'Académie militaire (équivalent de notre St Cyr-Coëtquidan, en beaucoup plus grand) qui la rend plus calme.
Si vous préférez être dans la nature, il y a Penedo, cela augmentera votre budget essence et votre temps de transport, voire Mauá, Itatiaia... ce sont des localités touristiques appréciées des Cariocas qui viennent y trouver un peu de fraîcheur, visiter le parc national d'Itatiaia et se baigner dans les "cachoeiras". En général, les célibataires préféraient Penedo.
Bon courage, et si vous pensez que Peugeot tient à vous essayez d'obtenir une expatriation, quitte à accepter des concessions sur le salaire de base...
Bonjour ThoRi,
Merci pour tous ces renseignements et surtout avertissements. Je suis un "vrai" ingé et mon salaire actuel est de 3750E/mois. Si je pars, je conserverai pendant plusieurs mois des charges en France puisque ma compagne travaille. Comme elle a un dossier en cours d'étude, par les organismes spécifiques, pour une invalidation qui, soit si elle obtient 100% lui permettra de me rejoindre rapidement, soit inférieur à 100% et là son employeur (elle est employée territoriale dans une mairie), le maire du village peut l'obliger à rester en place avec aménagement du poste, ce qui ne lui permettrait pas de me rejoindre rapidement et ferai ainsi allonger la période de charges en France. Donc tous tes renseignements vont m'aider à négocier ou me faire renoncer à ce projet. Je te remercie pour ton aide et tu peux effectivement me mettre en contact avec la personne dont tu parles. Moi également c'est sous l'aspect "assistance technique que je serai embauché. En effet c'est une entreprise de services Française qui a une filiale au Brésil qui m'embaucherait pour travailler chez Peugeot. A bientôt de nous tenir au courant de l'évolution du sujet. Papounet

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!
Cheers,

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!!

I’d love to go to Japan to travel, and if things go well, work there too. Has anyone tried finding a job there? Is it even possible without speaking Japanese? I’m thinking of starting out in restaurants (dishwashing or serving) and then moving into my field, IT.

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, 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
