Original post
bonjour!! j'ai le projet de partir travailler à papeeté au mois de mars pour un an ou plus.
j'aurais voulu connaitre les expériences d'infirmieres parties comme moi, le salaire moyen, la vie la bas.... Je partirais seule....c'est pas trop difficile ?? enfin bon que des questions qui ont du deja etre posées rire mais qui rassurent.... Voila!! merci!!
salut, l'installation du personnel médical se fait facilement, la majorité vient de l'extérieur vu le manque de personnel local, tout est fait pour les accueillir, ils ont l'habitude dans les hopitaux, cliniques, etc. pour ce qui est du salaire j'en ai jamais entendu se plaindre, et ceux qui viennent seuls se mettent en colocation, bref ils sont tous content, mais tu trouveras bien un truc pour raler en cherchant un peu ^_^
Otava, just do it
hello magalou !
je penses que tu as deja du chercher les discutions concernant les infirmiers a tahiti, comment faire, pour combien, niveau de vie etc etc.. sinon tu trouvera ton bonheur dans la fonction ' Rechercher ' du forum 😎
mais sois rassurée, a l' hopital nous ne sommes pas a plaindre, on s' en sort bien, et c' est deja pas mal ! on peut mener un train de vie serain, meme en mangeant un camembert de temps en temps 😄
contacte l' hopital de papeete et les cliniques via e-mail, tu devrais trouver ton bonheur !
bon vent 😉

ttsss mais kes k'on va faire de toi ! vivre a Tahiti est différent de la metropole, ca tu t'en doutes, les occupations sont différentes, les centres d'interet aussi, dans les iles c'est encore autre chose, y'a rien (pas de ciné, pas de bus qui t'emmene ou tu veux, pas de centre commercial, pas de boite, pas de bar en face de l'église...) donc tu dois aimer ce qui reste (la mer, tes voisins, la mer, tes voisins, la mer et enfin tes voisins, et tout ce qui tourne autour)
T'arrive quand deja que peyO face son stock ^_^
Otava, just do it
la mer et les voisins c deja pas mal !!! lol de toutes facons mon but premier pour venir c de quitter la vie de la metropole qui me fait c.... bref lol je devrai arriver en mars, je passe mon anniversaire ici et jarriiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiive!!(deja que mes potes prennent plutot mal le fait que je veuille partir en plus si je m'en vais sans feter mon anniversaire avec eux je crois qu'ils me feront la gueule à vie!!!) attention pey0 fait les stocks!! (paske je suppose que c pas le genre que je peux amener avec moi dans l'avion.....)
une bonne cuite à soigner dans l'avion avec la clim ca va le faire arf arf arf ben je pense que tu peux amener un peu ce que tu veux du moment que ca passe en bagage en soute.. la il faudrait que qq1 qui a pris l'avion recemment te réponde.. bah si tu prends pas de camembert tu nous ramene du champagne ^_^

Bonjour tout le monde!
Je reve de partir a tahiti pour travailler comme infirmière. Je suis Espagnole et j'ai dejà presque 5 ans d'experience comme Infirmière en France et en Belgique. Il semblerait que j'ai besoin d'un permis de travail pour travailler en Polynesie. Avez vous deja rencontré des infirmières étrangeres a tahiti? Vu la manque d'infirmiers, je me suis dit que les hopitaux seriont interessés, peut etre, a liberer des permis temporaux de travail. On fait ça en Espagne avec les infirmières d'Amérique du sud et heureussement q'elle sont là pour nous dépanner. On fait ça aussi en Polynesie? O je laisse tomber mon reve?🙁
Et mon diplome? Dois-je le faire valider? Il est dejà reconnu en France.
En fin! Je sais que ce n'est pas facile de repondre....
Merci et a bien-tot!!
salut! moi aussi suis une infirmière qui veut partir travailler a tahiti!!j'y ai passé 3 semaines en sept je rejoignais des amies de promo. il y a des endroits vraiments merveilleux qui m'ont donc donné envie d'y retourner!!......Je ne sais pas trop comment procéder pour mon départ, suis en CDI et ne sais pas si je peux prendre une dispo. de toute facons je dois réeconomiser pour me payer mon billet!! mais j'ai trop envie d'y retourner il faut que je patiente quelques mois!! J'espere que pour toi ton départ se prépare bien.
Bonjour,
Je suis infirmière et syndicaliste au centre hospitalier de la Polynésie française.
Si vous avez le projet de venir travailler en polynésie, vous avez tout intérêt à contacter le centre hospitalier de la Polynésie ou la direction de la santé publique avant de venir, et surtout d'avoir des garanties écrites concernant votre embauche.
Actuellement, la reprise d'ancienneté d'une infirmière ne se fait qu'à hauteur de 15 années, ( et pas des années effectuées dans le privé).
Les loyers sont élevés à Tahiti, et si vous êtes seul à travailler, avec un salaire pas suffisamment élevé, ce ne sera pas facile d'assumer financièrement.
Hinano Bessalem
Si tu travailles au centre hospitalier de la Polynésie, si tu arrives à le négocier, tu peux faire prendre en charge, par l'hôpital, ton billet d'avion. Tout dépend des périodes de pénurie. Il faut contacter le centre hospitalier de la Polynésie et obtenir des garanties écrites.
Hinano Bessalem
ia ora na oe eh ben, meme les syndicalistes y sont.... on est mal barré !
nana.....
salut!!
j'ai effectivement ecrit au centre hospitalier de mamao via email pour postuler. ils m'ont repondu qu'il y avait des postes mais qu'il fallait venir postuler directement sur place avec tout un tas de papiers, car je ne serais sur papeete qu'au mois de mars et qu'entre temps il y avait la sortie de l'ifsi. mais que malgrès la sortie d'ifsi ils ne combleraient pas tout les postes. donc je me fais pas trop de souci et jarrive fin fevrier. tu penses que je devrais me faire du souci???????
nana
BONJOUR,
Qu'est ce qui empêche le CHPF de te donner une garantie écrite comme quoi tu auras un poste, si tu envoies tous tes documents, certifiés conformes, par le maire de ta commune par exemple? Tu prend quand même des risques si tu viens et que tu n'as pas de garanties. Et si quand tu arrives à Tahiti, et qu'il ne peuvent t'embaucher que le mois suivant ou même après ? A tu les fonds financiers suffisants pour assurer loyer, alimentation, etc...sans salaires pendant une période, même petite?

* * la vie est un poème, que tu vas écrire toi même....**
hello, je me permets de t'ecrire car à lire ton message j'avais l'impression de me voir moi, j'ai un projet depuis environ 2 ans c'est d'aller travailler a tahiti et je commence enfin a le concretiser, voici 6 mois que j'ai mon billet d'avion, j'arrive le 12 janvier 2008, et jusqu'a il y a une semaine je n'avais ni logement ni boulot, (le logement trouver il y 5 jours: une pension pour 2 semaines afin de me laisser le temps de trouver une colocation ou un appart) je suis egalement infirmiere alors je commence a me demander si ce n'est pas un truc des IDE: les voyages à l'arache a l'autre bout du monde.
Pour ma part, je pars toute seule, je ne connais personne la bas mais je suis sur qu'une belle aventure m'attend.😉
J'avais egalement fais parvenir des cv dans differentes cliniques et a l'hopital mais comme je l'avais prevu je n'ai eu qu'une reponse et elle s'est revélée negative, pour les meme raisons que toi: sortie d'IFSI, etre sur place etc etc...
voila alors maintenant que j'ai passé les fetes avec mes proches et mes amis à ecouter leur mecontentement pour me laisser partir.. et les laisser parler de la bringue de depart.... je prepare tout doucement ma valise, les papiers administratifs, les assurrances etc etc on dirait pas mais ya pas mal de chose a laisser en regle, a faire, a resilier, et a ne pas oublier. Voili voilou, mon depart se rapproche et je ne cacherai pas que le stress se fait connaitre peu à peu. Si jamais tu veux connaitre des formalités n'hesites pas, je ne pense pas etre calé mais ca peut etre sympa de partager ou me mettre la pression si je ne sais pas ....😕
je te souhaite une bonne fin d'année et qui sait... peut etre bientot sur tahiti

bonjour.
Peux tu me dire si une infirmière titulaire de la fonction publique hospitalière peux acceder à un emploi au centre hospitalier de Papeete par voie de mutation démission, puisque la mutation en tant que telle n'existe pas dans notre fonction publique. Je démissionne de mon employeur et je suis réembauchée le lendemain à indice égale et ancienneté égale dans le nouveau centre hospitalier. En métropole, c'est le statut, dans les DOM celà se pratique aussi. J'ai eu des infos certes non officielles que dans les TOM, les directions ne pratiquaient pas "la mutation". Je fais appel à toi en raison de ta connaissance des textes puisque tu es syndicaliste
Merci de ta réponse
je suppose que tu es de la fonction publique hospitalière métropolitaine qui est en réalité un statut complètement différent de la fonction publique territoriale polynésienne, c'est pourquoi la voie de mutation est impossible. Si tu veux travailler en polynésie comme infirmière dans un établissement de santé publique, tu seras embauchée en CDD, et si veux être titulaire d'un poste il faudra que tu passes et réussises un concours de la fonction publique territoriale, lorsque les décideurs du Pays décideront de l' effectuer ( ça c'est une autre histoire).
Hinano Bessalem
iaorana, non, la polynesie n'est ni un Dom, ni un Tom, mais un Pom, (pays d'outre-mer) avec des lois tres particulieres par rapport a la metropole, si tu trouves un emploi, tu recommenceras en bas de l'echelle, de plus, pas de rtt, pas de rmi, pas de chomage, allez voir le site du gouvernement polynesien
nana.
je te remercie. Ta réponse m'a permis d'aider une jeune IDE qui part à Papeete en novembre. Elle m'avait demandé ces renseignements que je ne trouvais pas dans le code de la fonction publique hospitalière. Je suis moi aussi syndicaliste. Je travaille dans un établissement de 1600 lits et nous sommes 4400 salariés.
Travailler à Papeete, je n'y songe pas. Par contre j'aimerais vraiment y séjourner en vacances mais pas dans des clubs hôtel stéréotypés. As tu des tuyaux à me filer ? Chambre d'hôtes, gites !!!
Merci à toi. Ta réponse m'a permis de renseigner une jeune infirmière qui va venir travailler à Papeete en novembre.
Moi, je reste en métropole, et je préfère voyager durant mes congés, même si ces périodes sont souvent trop courtes.
Tu as raison, il faut réaliser ses rêves car la vie est trop courte pour être gâchée. Il faut savoir apprécier les moments simples. Etre infirmière et secrétaire syndicale te permets de prendre du recul et même si le temps m'est souvent compté...je m'éclate dans mon job.
Tchao et encore 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’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! !

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?
Thanks in advance for your replies!

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
