Nouvelle vie en Nouvelle-Calédonie
by Bedelph
This discussion is in French, the community’s main language.
Original post
je suis infirmiere en france et mon mari est mute en nouvelle caledonie au mont dore
nous avons 2 enfants
ca va etre un sacre demenagement et une vie bien differente!
seulement je flip un peu car on m a dit que c etait pas facil de trouver un travail avant d etre vraiment sur le territoire...
alors comment est le marche du travail "sante" sur le territoire?
et nous envisageons de prendre un gros container; vos conseils sur ce qui est important de prendre sont les bienvenus! d ailleurs faut il prendre les voitures?
merci pour vos reponses par avance
Le copain d'une de mes collègues l'a rejoint il y a 3 mois, il est infirmier... il bossait au bout d'une semaine d'arrivée en calédonie...Mais il avait pris des contacts avant au CHT le personnel l'attendait plus ou moins, !mais si tu te renseigne déjà et que tu prends quelques contacts ca ne devrait pas etre un pb de trouver.Pour les voitures je crois que ca coute tres cher... mieux vaut prévoir d'en achter une ici, il y a pas mal d'offres d'occaz de toute facon!
Leslie
merci beaucoup ca me rassure et j vais prendre contact deja avec pas mal de structures; on verra ce qu ils me disent!
sinon pour la voit j pense enmener une car on a 2 enfants et avec toutes les demarches que l on aurra a faire pas trop envie de courir nous trouver une voit d occas plus chere tout de meme; la notre est presque neuve alors
en tous les cas on arrive!
oui les pers de la metropole ne sont pas attendus...mais on est tres motive pour s installer sur le territoire et trouver un boulot dans notre branche afin de vivre et d offrir a toute la famille bien autre chose que la france
en tous les cas merci
et que penses tu des affaires importantes a prendre; j espere que l immobilier se porte bien et que il n y aura pas trop de reticence a nous louer
merci
pour ce qui est des logements, tant que tu as de l'argent et de quoi payer la caution, pas de probleme :)
pour ce qui est des affaires à prendre, je ne me rend pas trop compte
si vous n'avez pas de caisse maritime, vous serez vite restreints par le poid et le volume maxi autorisé par le fret aerien
Ici en moyenne, tout est 33% plus cher que la metropole, à vous de voir ce que vous ne voulez pas repayer ici

Tu n'auras aucun problème pour trouver du travail en tant qu'infirmière ils en manquent, comme partout ailleurs. Il y a bien sur les structures hosp sur Nouméa mais également les dispensaires sur la région du Mont Dore. Je suis infirmière et j'ai trouvé de suite du travail sur Nouméa (il y a 5 ans déjà ! à moins qu'il y ait eu bcp de changements entre temps !) et je suis allée finalement travailler sur une des Iles Loyauté. C'est vrai qu'ils donnent la priorité aux locaux ce qui est bien normal mais il y a trop de manques au niveau de la santé, donc beaucoup d'infirmières métro. Penses aussi aux remplacements en libéral. Bref, tu trouveras des opportunités.
Quant aux voitures, je te conseille fortement de les emmener
car les occases sont chères et souvent pas fiables.
De plus, quand vous partirez, vous ne serez pas perdants
à la vente. Nous n'avons jamais regretté d'avoir amené nos
2 voitures. Par contre, pour le reste, je pense qu'il vaut mieux acheter sur place car les métros qui partent revendent tout pour pas cher et c'est vraiment intéressant.
Mon expérience de travail en dispensaire a été très positive,
j'ai beaucoup apprécié de travailler avec les calédoniens qui ont une culture très différente (même si c'est français) c'était une relation simple, chaleureuse c'était très enrichissant humainement et professionnellement. Si tu es curieuse des autres, d'une nouvelle culture sans trop d'apriori, tu ne seras pas déçue.
merci beaucoup pour ta reponse qui me satisfait et me rassure; c est vrai que dans notre prof peu de souci mais bon j voulais etre aussi rassuree
oui on va prendre les voit car avec les enfants pas trop envie de courir partout a pied!
j espere que pour toi tout se passe tres bien et bonne route
je ne manquerais pas de te recontacter pour conseils et autres
merci encor bonne route
Bonjour Tigoune, je suis très intéressée par ton message, car je suis infirmière et assez tentée par la possiblité de vivre et travailler quelques mois en province nord de la Nouvelle Calédonie.
Travaillais-tu en dispensaire, en itinérante ?
Es-tu ok pour parler de ton expérience et répondre à quelques questions ?
Merci.

bonjour
on compte s insaller sur le caillou mais avant nous venons passer quelques jours
ma femme et secretaie medicale et moi je suis chef de chantier dans le domaine du jardin penses tu que l on puisse trouver du travaille rapidement car nous viendrons avec des economies mais nous avons 2 enfants et ca part tres vite
si tu as des reseignements supplementaires elles serontles bien venu

Salut Gil,
Je cherche des tuyaux pour trouver du boulot tels: institutions à contacter, journaux locaux, sites internets où poster son CV... Je sais que l'on privilégie les NC mais comme je parle 4 langues + formations (tourisme, environnement) et expériences (communication, administration), qui sait?
Un tout grand merci d'avance,
Val
Je vois à qui m'adresser localement mais le problème c'est que je ne connais pas specialement leur sites internet
ici la plupart des gens trouvent du boulots par le bouche à oreilles, les annonces dans le journal local ( les nouvelles caledoniennes ) ou a l'agence pour l'emploi
sur internet, il y a pas grand chose, a toi de voir en passant par les moteurs de recherche

Moi c'est stéphanie, je suis aide soignante sur Lyon et j'arrive courant novembre si tous se déroule comme prévut, avec 2 colocs qui st infirmières.
Je voulais savoir si vous connaissiez une auberge de jeunesse qui pourrait nous héberger en attendant de trouver un pied à terre. Nous ne savons pas encore dans quel centre hospitalier nous allons travailler mais certainement sur Nouméa où ses alentours.

Merci à bientôt.

J'ai suivi votre discussion et je compte aussi m'installer en Calédonie d'ici 2 ans grand maximum. Je travaille dans le médico social, et j'ai les diplômes d'Aide médico Psychologique et de moniteur d'atelier. Et auriez vous des adresses à me donner que je puisse prospecter dès maintenant ?
Est-ce des secteurs qui embauchent ? merci de vos réponses.

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 there. I’m planning to move to Luxembourg around December 2025 or January 2026. I’ll be looking for a job and settling in. My question is: is it too complicated to find housing? Is the job market more advantageous and easier than in France? I’m open to any information that could help me.
Thanks in advance for your advice.
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?
Thanks in advance!

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!^^
