Bonjour à vous tous!
j'ai besoin d'un peu de votre aide..en effet, je souhaite rejoindre mon copain qui s'est installé depuis 3 mois sur une île des loyautés : Maré.
Je suis actuellement en CDI dans le secretariat dans le domaine du BTP et je voulais savoir s'il n'etait pas impossible de trouver un poste dans le secretarait ou autre sur cette ile. je suis dèjà allée là bas il y a 1 an et demi pour 3 semaines...et j'ai bien vu que l'île ne regorgait pas d'entreprises.😕
Je souhaite également savoir quelles etaient les démarches pour m'assurer au niveau médical (actuellement couverte sous la mutuelle de ma société) on m'a parlé de la CAFAT. Quelles sont les démarches alors?
Il me semble qu'on ne peut pas toucher les assedic là bas car c'est un territoire et non un département d'outre mer.
Voilà! j'espère que qqun pourra m'aider dans mes recherches

Salut Marie d ziles
A mon avis ce n'est pas gagné. Non seulement il n'y a pas ou très peu d'entreprise, mais je pense que l'emploi est de plus en + réservé aux natifs de l'ile. ( ce n'est pas une règle absolue, mais il vaut mieux avoir cela en tête pour éviter des déconvenues ) Sauf compétence exceptionnelle, contrat, mutation de l'administration etc.... ou là c'est encore possible.
Concernant la couverture sociale, ton futur employeur en fera la déclaration OBLIGATOIREMENT à la cafat et une complémentaire te sera proposée aussi, donc pas de souci la dessus, à moins qu' il ne t'emploie au noir.....ce qui est toujours possible.
Il n'y a pas d'aide financiere sur le territoire sauf, aide médicale ( pour les très bas revenus, il faut en faire la demande, et l'assistance sociale, mais vs n'allez pas labas pour etre ds la misere sinon il vaut mieux rester en france) et le chomage bien entendu. Même si d'après Charles, la misere est moins pénible au soleil......

Sur Maré c est sur c'est pas gagné pour les raison cités precedements. Par contre sur grande terre je vois beaucoup d'annonces de recrutement de secrétaires dans pas mal de secteurs. Une amis a d'ailleurs trouvé un poste de secretaire CDD qui s'est transformé en CDI. Elle a cherché au moins 4 semaines...
Pour ce qui est du boulot dans le tourisme, on avait un pote (qui est retourné en australie depuis) qui a trouvé un boulot a l'accueil d'un hôtel 3 étoiles. Condition de travail un peu spéciale: les heures sup non payées etait de règle. A peu prés une heure par jour. Et comme les contrats sont du genre précaires, ceux qui n en fopnt pas assez dégagent. Lui il avait de la chance il parlait courament japonais et anglais ce qui est un atout important vu le type de touristes. Résultat il ne s'embêtait pas.

Je suis moi aussi de Bordeaux et je pars en stage en Nouvelle calédonie. Il parait que la bas la politique vise à ne pas rémunérer les stagiaires.
J'ai fait un blog pour mon voyage n' hésitez pas à y aller. Si vous avez des questions pour savoie comment je me suis demerdé pour avoir un stage, n'hésitez pas.
Salut Marie,
Décidemment, y'a un flux migratoire important vers le caillou en ce moment!!! Moi aussi, je suis de Dunkerque (originaire) et je quitte bientôt la France pour la NC, le 9 Avril pour trois mois voire plus... J'ai des amis sur places pour m'accueillir mais ils bossent alors pourquoi pas découvrir le caillou en groupe???...
De même, as-tu eu des infos sur les assedics et assurance maladie sur le caillou?
Merci d'avance,
Thomas

Bonjour,
Je suis de Nouvelle calédonie et j'habite a bordeaux depuis 6 mois. Beaucoup de monde veulent partir en Nouvelle calédonie!!! Effectivement j'ai lu que certains emploi était réservé à l'emploi locale. Le secrétariat est quand même une de ses activié pro pour les locaux en général. En ce qui concerne le toursime c'est en effet un travail un peu ingrat par les horaires. Mais avec (lebordelais) tes bagages je pense que tu devrais t'en sortir. Au niveau de la grande terre, un devellopement est en train de naître avec l'essor minier. Par contre il y a encore quelques conflits sociopolitique pour ces projets. Donc step by step for the project!!! par contre j'ai oublié les autres sujets, dispo pour tout autre question...

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!
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!!

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!^^
