Nous sommes quatres étudients en médecine qui effectuont un stage à l'hôpital franco-vietnamien de Saïgon au cours de l'été 2007. Nous recherchons désespérement des possibilités de logement ensemble à des prix abordables.
Pouvez vous nous aider ?
Toutes informations, contacts, adresses nous seraient d'une aide précieuse
L'hopital franco-vietnamien se trouve dans le 7ème arrondissement, quartier très chic de HoChiMinhVille.
Le logement ici n'est pas donné. Le loyer est à peu près identique par rapport à Paris!
Il faudrait se rabattre sur les 4 et 8ème arrondissement, mais alors sachez que pour vous rendre à l'hopital FV, il vous faudra porter des casques en moto.
Lucky that we have a home/Our Home is Nha May Man/Passing rain and dry seasons/In a full-of-love atmosphere/Besides my new family/I have brothers and sisters/The sun shines over the skies/Let's stay here, with all of us,
Je suis récemment parti 3 mois en stage à Saigon, je logeais dans un hotel pour 250$ / mois (200€). ils te lavent ton linge, tu rentres quand tu veux et t'as la télé, clim... par contre c'était une chambre individuelle. Personellement, je vois pas comment tu pourrais trouver une maison à louer pour 4 sans être sur place. Sur place, c'est pas trop dur de trouver et tu pourras trouver assez facilement je pense.
Pour mon hotel, j'étais en plein dans le centre (dist1), à 5 min des grands hotels (caravelle sheraton) et près aussi de tous les bars et boites. Toute façon, il faut absolument que vous louiez une moto une fois sur place, c'est indispensable si vous voulez pas avoir la vie de touristes de bases en restant uniquement dans le centre. La moto ça coute 50$ par mois (35€), par contre faut maitriser car ils conduisent comme des malades, enfin ils savent pas conduire.
Voila, je te fileras l'adresse si ca t interesse.
La vie à Saigon, c unique, surtout quand on est francais...
Cordialement

Je suis moi même déjà aller au vietnam l'année dernière pendant un mois. Je connais donc l'anarchie charmante des routes des grandes villes, notemment de Saïgon. j'avais aussi loué une moto, mais plus au Sud, dans le Delta du Mékong, et c'était directement par le biais de l'hôtel ou je résidais.
En revanche, je suis très interressé par des magasins de location de scooteur sur Ho Chi Minh city. Si tu as des adresses, ce sera avec joie.
pour les locations de moto, c'est hyper facile. tu vas dans le quartier routard, la ou t'as les voyageurs avec des sacs à dos.
t'as pleins de restos et de magasins qui proposent des locations de motos, 50$ j'avais la mienne. c'étaint une 125 de base, le 1er prix mais alors l'état de la moto à la fin, plus de frein, la pedale de frein arriere qui frotte par terre, elle demarrait trop mal, elle callait tout le temps... sinon elle était bien. Mais voila ils te la réparent si besoin
Sinon tu demandes dans ce quartier, les gens sont habitués aux touristes alors ils parlent anglais. Si tu demandes à louer une moto, ils feront tout pour te rendre service. stress pas pour ca, ca sera hyper facile à trouver.
Voila ils te demanderont uniquement une photocopie de piece d'identité et ton adresse à Saigon.
hésite pas à demander pour toute autre information
Je suis étudiante en médecine à Nancy, et je pars aussi cet été au FV Hospital, je serai en onco. Quand arrivez vous, vous avez déjà une date de début de stage fixée? Je dois arriver vers le 03/07 à Saigon. J'ai pas de logement prévu, mais je dois contacter des personnes sur Nancy qui ont vécu là bas et doivent me donner des tuyaux. Dites moi ou vous en êtes, on sait jamais.
Tenez moi au courant!
A+!

Ben pour le moment, on a un peu laissé tomber l'idée d'une collocation car les prix sont inaccessibles pour nos petites bourses d'étudients;
En revanche, on comptait se rabattre sur des hôtels dans le premier district qui nous reviendraient à environ 5 dollards par nuit, soit environ 150 $ par mois.
Tiens moi au courant de tes recherches STP !
Pour nous, on arriverait sur Saïgon le 24 Juin 2007.
Salut Jean-rémy,
C'est ce que je pensais faire aussi, le district 1 est a priori le quartier des expat', avec des guesthouses à profusion. Je te tiens au courant dès que j'ai des nouvelles.
Ciao!

BONSOIR JE VAIT AU VIETNAM AU MOIS DE SEPTENBRE PEU TU ME DONNER ADRESSE DE TON HOTEL JE VAIT IL RESTER 10 jours je suis francais et pour le change ses mieux de le faire ou a saigon je vous remerci de me repondre
bonsoir pouver vous me donner adresse de votre hotel ou vous etait ses pour il passer 10 jours a saigon merci de me donner une reponse je part le 6 septenbre et le tenp il et coment a cette saison la ba
Mon hotel etait en fait une residence longue duree, pour les sejours longs donc laisse tomber il te prendront pas pour 10 jours.
sinon t en fais pas tu trouves facilement a 10$ la nuit dans le quartier routard, la rue principale est pham ngu lao je crois. Toute facon c est facile a trouver, c est dans le quartier de Ben tanh Market.
Sinon achete le guide du routard, tu trouveras plein d adresses ou au pire, des noms de rues et en fonction tu trouveras les hotels.
C est sur que pham ngu lao n est pas la meme ambiance que l a ou j etais, sur Le Than ton mais pour une courte duree, c est la bas que tu y trouveras ton bonheur.
Meme si il y a bcp de touristes !!
Voila hesite pas a me recontacter si t as des questions !!
Sur Saigon, j aurais ete au courant si il y avait eu des grosses inondations car je suis tjs en contacts avec des potes qui vivent la bas et ils m ont rien dit.
enfin en meme temps ils vivent dans le centre.
Oui j ai oublie aussi, pour le change, t en fais pas tu feras dans la banque du coin, le taux de change est ridicule alors fais pas ca a l aeroport.
Tu as une banque, vietcombank je crois pres du caravelle hotel en plein dans le centre, j ai tjs fais la bas et le taux etait tres faible. Sinon si t y vas en touriste, tu peux payer en dollar !!
Par contre, la banque te taxe un max de frais, j avais 5€ tous les 100€ alors ca fait bcp a la fin !!
Si tu veux des infos pour les prix, tee shirt, montre tout ca demande moi, A combien tu peux negocier ! Parce que si t as une bonne tete de touriste, ils vont pas se gener pour te taxer un max
A+
En septembre j ai souvenir qu on avait eu plutot beau temps !!
Enfin, meme si il pleut ca dure genre 30 min a torrent et apres il fait beau.
Jusqu en decembre l annee derniere, je n ai jamais mis un pull donc vas y avec des fringues legeres, et surtout si t es jamais alle en asie, tu vas avoir chaud, tres chaud car l air est tres humide et on transpire beaucoup, tu vas changer 2 ou 3 fois de tee shirt par jour je pense !
Voila, profite pour visiter, fais les boites de nuit c assez genial, g jamais autant fais la fete la bas tellement c pas cher mais attention, 95% des filles en boites sont des putes !! Moi je le savais mais prend garde.

Auriez vous quelques coneil qui ns permettraient de trouver un logement pour un stage de 2 mois s'il vous plait.

I am aware that this topic is long time ago, but I just want to share some of my experiences when I helped a French girl to find an accommodation last week:

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!^^
