Bonjour a toutes et a tous, je suis nouvelle sur le forum mais voila je suis enceinte de 6 mois et je pars dans un mois rejoindre mon mari militaire pour un séjour de 2 ans en Guyane. Je ne suis pas vacciné contre la fièvre jaune et et je ne peux rien prendre du fait de mon état et je ne veux pas que le bébé subisse quoi que ce soit . Si vous avez des réponse a me donner je les écouteraient avec plaisir parceque la je suis vraiment pas bien. merci d'avance
Tu sais qu'il y a des restrictions pour prendre l'avion si tu es enceinte, il te faudra un
certificat médical et la plupart des compagnies refuse l'acces sur tu dépasses les
7 mois de grossesse. Donc renseigne toi aupres de la compagnie.
Normalement le vaccin contre la fievre jaune est obligatoire
Bonjour, meme si il n'y a pas d'épidémie de fièvre jaune actuellement, c'est une obligation d'etre vaccinée, ne prend surtout pas de risque avec cette fièvre, il suffit d'un moustique infecté.
je ne sais même pas si tu pourras rentrer sur le territoire sans être vaccinée. t'es tu renseigné ? ce certificat est le seul obligatoire à tout départ vers la guyane :"La vaccination n'a donc aucun intérêt en France et elle n'est pas inscrite au calendrier vaccinal. En revanche, elle est obligatoire en Guyane. Il y a également une obligation administrative de vaccination pour les voyageurs désirant se rendre dans certains pays d'Afrique et d'Amérique intertropicales." "Il est en principe contre-indiqué chez la femme enceinte. Cependant si le voyage en zone d'endémie ne peut être reporté, il est préférable de vacciner. C'est au médecin vaccinateur d'apprécier l'indication en fonction du risque d'infection"
un ami ayant oublié son certificat de vaccination à st Laurent a put partir pour la Martinique le vol aller ne réclamant pas la présentation du certificat fièvre jaune, mais on lui a bien dis de réussir à le récupérer pour le retour, en effet il n'aurais pas put revenir en guyane sans cela.
ce qui me laisse penser que ne pourra pas venir sans ce précieux sésame.

bonjour, oui compliqué....Je vivais sur le fleuve dopnc ce nest pas tout a fait cayenne ou kourou: l unique hopital digne de ce nom en guyane est a kourou...
OUI nous les francais ne sommes jamais tres positif, mais j ai vecu la situation inverse, j'ai du quitter kla guyane a 7 mois de grossesse.....que te dire, c loin d etre la situation révée: est ce ton premier enfant? moi c etait ma premiere puce et nous avons eu tres peur: le stress, la fatigue et l'avion ne sont pas du tout recommandé en pleinegrossesse, je l'ai vecu et ma petite aussi, elle s en est tres bien sortie, sans doute parce qu il y a vait la vigilence, le materiel, les competences et le personnel adequat a une bonne surveillance ( monitoring tous les deux jours! cesarienne en urgence;..et je ne le savais pas vraiment mais oui un accouchement n est pas aisé et non sans risque) moi je n'ai pas eu le choix (j ai perdu mon boulot car j etais enceinte!!!!) mais c franchement a eviter je pense; honnetement, parles en a l'hopital, appelle l hopital de kourou, parle aux sages femmes, ecoute leur conseil, je pense avec ma porpre experience, que te garantir un petit accouchement pres des tiens, dans un enviroonement que tu connais, ta maison, tes affaires oui, sera nettement preferable, et n oublie pas une chose que je ne savais pas non plus: les deux mois qui suivent un accouchement sont extremement epuisant (moralement et physiquement), ne te fais pas subir ca, ne vous faites pas subir ca, tu auras besoin de soutien et d'accompagnement, ce que tu n'auras pas en arrivant à peine en guyane: non ton homme ne pourra pas suffir mais il peut venir te rejoindre la semaine de l'accouchement, (allez une petite maladie peut l'empecher de repartir le jour meme en guyane) tu t'installes pres de proches auxquel tu tiens et fais confiance, un ou deux suffisent et tu savoures. TRANQUILLMENT ET PRUDEMMENT deux mois apres lorsque tu seras prete a ouvrir les yeux sur la guyane, vous pourrais rejoindre la guyane en toute transuilité et positivement mais comme ca non, ce ne sont pas les infrastructures de la france et ce sera trop destabilisant, non, en toute honneteté, et je viens du fleuve , ce serait irresponsble non n oublie pas que ses trois premiers mois seront ta rencontre necessaire avec ton petit bout, ce sont les primordiaux et les plus intimes, tu ne pourras pas etre disponible, c'est ton bebe qui arrive au monde, ne t inquitete pas, la guyane e le papa resteront la encore deux mois !(c un peu le tiers monde coté medical, voila c dit!!, et meme a kourou! qui a peut etre de belle machine mais question personnelle?????)mon experience de kourou: magnifique centre dentaire, moderne, classe, nombre de praticien et de salle tres bie nequipée, mais mais mais l etudiante bresilienne qui deait m arracher une dent m'a fait jaillir le sang, son acte a durer une heure (monte en main!) j ai souffert et la dent n a pas ete bien arraché, bon ca c l'exclu sympa y en a beaucoup d autres nettement moins sympa dans les hopitaux guyanais, non , c est vaguement la france la guyane et les lois sont vaguement respectées, les protocoles medicaux encore moins meme par nos praiticiens frncais qui pratiquent en guyane depuis bien trop longtemps(aucune surveillance!) et il n y a pas de moyens (et je tente de rester sobre!)
bon, bref tu auras compris mon message, et honnetement je ne pense pas faire d'alerte au feu ridicule comme beaucoup le font sur le net, rnseigne toi mais la plupart des femmes qui tombaient enceinte coté ouest rentre en france pour accoucher!!! ca parle de soi meme non?
pour ce qui est du voyage avec un bebe, une copine a fait cayenne-paris-montpellier- maroc avec sa petite de trois semaines, et le tout sur 15 jours!)et tt c bien passé
bon neanmoins, on est d accord, on parle du mdical d urgence!!! fait la pzrt des choses entre les hopitaux guyanais et toute la richesse magnifique de la guyane, et oui tu peux t imaginer avec ton petit bebe zet ton amoureux suur la plage de cayenne, sous ce soleil, les pieds dans l'eau et a l'ombre des cocotiersau pied des montagnes verdoyantes imagnifique, paradisiaque, oui, tu la decouvriras comme ca cette belle guyane, c bien mieux!, oui bientot , ce sera pour bientot
et bien petite maman , donne moi de tes nouvelles
bon courage, et surtout, zen...MAIS EN SEcurité, ici ce sont les medecins et sage femme qui gere le stress pour nous
Les vaccins contre-indiqués
Tous les vaccins à base de virus vivants atténués sont contre-indiqués au cours de la grossesse, en raison du risque théorique que le virus traverse le placenta et infecte le foetus. Sont concernés les vaccins contre la rougeole, la rubéole, les oreillons, la varicelle, la fièvre jaune, et le vaccin antipoliomyélitique par voie orale. Le BCG, réalisé à partir de bacilles vivants atténués, est également déconseillé. Cependant, pour aucun de ces vaccins le risque foetal n'a été confirmé jusqu'à maintenant.
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...
What price should I expect to pay for a modest small apartment or a large room in a bedroom community in Quito? Are restaurants and food expensive? And which airline is best to travel from Montreal? Thanks for your answers
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!
Hi, I was wondering if anyone has already had the experience of working abroad?
I don’t have a specific country in mind yet, so I’m open to hearing about your experiences on this topic—the pros and cons, etc.
Hi there!
I’m a young Malian looking to work in Morocco. Besides a passport, what other documents are required at the **Moroccan** border?
Thanks for your help!
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.
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?
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!
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.?
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.
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 there,
I’ve been living in Bali for a month now, but unfortunately on a VOA visa. I’m looking for a European company that’s set up in Indonesia. I’m in electrotechnical maintenance—air conditioning, cold rooms, 220V/380V electricity. I’ve been a tradesperson for 3 months and can bring my full professional toolkit. If anyone’s interested, let me know!
You can send me a message.
Best regards,
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.
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?
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! 🥺🏻
I'm looking for an au pair who'd like to come to Bournemouth in the south of England, and I'd love to know what the best websites are to find one, please.
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?
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?
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.
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!^^
