salut, outre la réalité de ce qu dit jipi, je te conseille d'y aller en tant que touriste, de voir, parler avec les differents opérateurs, et de voir les modalités avec les autorités, j'ai connu des jeunes venus s'installer, qui ont achetés des machines a coudre, embauchés du personnel, et commencé à travailler, et sans raison apparente, ont ete expulsés, en laissant leur matériel sur place, ils ont tout perdu. a Madagascar, le visa n'est jamais définitif, un mot déplacé envers une autorité, une idée politique et c'est l'expulsion, ce qui vient d'arriver à des ecclésiastiques qui faisaient beaucoup de bien installés à Mada depuis des 10 aines d'années....
alors il faut etre prudent et bien ficeler son projet.

Bonjour
Un projet d ecotourisme et de solidarité : une ONG ou une entreprise ? en effet, si tu viens pour monter une ONG, a mon avis, cela ne risque pas de poser de pb meme si c est jamais evident, si par contre c est un projet plus ambitieux et a usage "lucratif" (meme si ce n est pas pour faire fortune). Prudence, prudence.
Le contexte n est tjrs pas favorable aux investisseurs en particulier quand ils sont petits, grosses grosses difficultes administratives en perspective (visa, bail terrain...). Grosso modo et quand on vient d arriver, il faut un associé malgache et c est souvent la que cela peche.
En outre la vis se resserre chaque année plus et on peut pas dire que l administration soit franchement french-friendly, quand bien meme les investisseurs sont encore majoritairement francais a Mada.
Comme disait les autres, je te conseille plutot de passer un long moment a Mada histoire de rencontrer des personnes qui ont franchi le temps et de déterminer si le projet peut tenir la route. Les francais sont nombreux la bas, en particulier dans le tourisme, mais souvent marié(e)s a des malgaches ou tt au moins a Mada depuis un bon bout de temps. Je pense particulierement au campement a Ialatsara pres d Ambohimahasoa a 60 bornes de Fianarantsoa (car dans l esprit cela s approche de votre projet) mais il y a des tas d autres petites entreprises ou assoc dans le style (Coeur malgache a Fianar), des tas de gens a Tulear, Morondava, Ifaty, Anakao etc etc... bref y en a quand meme plein donc y a moyen.
Mais il y a aussi plein d histoires de cata memorables : visa supprimé ou non renouvellé sans explication, mise en taule (cf Mme Barday dont on a pas mal entendu parler), vol par l associé bref j ai pas mal bougé et je trouve qu a Mada l environnement des affaires est vraiment un des plus difficiles a apprécier car grosso modo t es jamais vraiment en sécurité (d un point de vue biz bien entendu).
Bonne suite
un autre chose se mefier des vazahas ( blancs majoritairement français) qui vont vouloir te refiler un projet une entreprise un etablissement hotelier la c est "tres grand danger d arnaque" car ils se sont fait eu meme souvent "enfle" par une autre vazaha
dans le fameux ecotourisme je connais qqes structures qui sont de vrais pompes frics et qui n ont rien d equitable
a mada c est le malheureusement bcp plus d embrouilles que de siituation claire qui existe quand meme mais tres rare!! (de plus elles sont rarement a vendre)
de plus il faut savoir pour ta gouverne qu a mada la "jalousie" est un vrai fleau meme les gasy le reconnaisent aisement
voila je te souhaite de realiser ton projet mais je pense que connaissant mada depuis 1964 je ne vaux pas jouer a tout le monde il est beau et il est gentil
pour ma part j ai la chance de ne pas avoir besoin de faire des affaires pour y passer du temps!!

Salut moi c'est jahena.Je viens d' arriver sur ce site car après multes réflexions j' ai moi aussi l' intention d' aller vivre à Madagascar ( Fort Dauphin) afin de monter un projet dans l' écotourisme.Mais pour le moment ce n' est qu' un projet car je n' y suis jamais aller.J' ai des amis qui y vont très souvent et qui ont des petites entreprises implantées là- bas qui m' ont suggéré de réfléchir à un projet.
Je suis originaire de l' île de la Réunion et je vis depuis 13 ans en Métropole mais mon attirance pour madagascar estde plus en plus grandissante.
Cependant, je me pose pleins de questions moi aussi au niveau administratif, installation, intégration etc...De plus, j' attend un bébé et je voudrais me rassurer aussi pour son éducation là-bas.
As-tu déjà finaliser ton projet et surtout as-tu décidé d' une date pour aller quand même voir cette belle île?
Si toutefois d' autres lecteurs souhaitent me donner des conseils, ils seront les bienvenus.
Je viens de lire votre message sur madagascar. AVez vous pris une decision? Je finis mes etudes (finance et international business management) en Mai aux Etats-Unis et je veux creer mon entreprise a madagascar. Apparemment vous vous etes bien renseigner sur les demarches administratives. Dans quel domaine pensez-vous investir? et quand pensez vous vous rendre sur place? J'aimerais savoir si on vise le meme domaine, car je pense que l'union fait la force. D'ailleurs je n'ai aucun contact sur place mais vous vous en avez.
J'espere vous lire tres prochainement.
Je pense aussi que l'union fait la force.
Je suis revenu il y a peu d'un voyage pendant lequel j'ai habité un plus d'un an à Madagascar pour travailler dans une ONG de droit malgache faisant de l'ecotourisme.
Je connais bien le pays, la langue, et pour les problèmes administratif, de visa aussi. Pour mon visa que je devais sans cesse renouveler tout les mois en moyenne, j'ai réussi à faire connaissance avec une personne de l'administration qui m'a fourni un certificat de résidence pour une centaine d'euros.
Sinon voila, je cherche aussi à monter un produit d'écotourisme à Mada mais je sais pas trop par où commencer les démarches de l'avant projet...
En revanche si vous avez l'intention de monter un projet à Madagascar cela me ferait plaisir d'y participer et je sais que une fois sur place dans le pays je pourrai bien aider. J'ai un très bon réseau dans le pays, je sais travailler avec les populations locale et je connais bien la mentalité.
Je cherche à m'immerger dans un projet comme tel et vivre à Madagascar ce beau pays si touchant.
Venant de m'inscrire sur ce site, je consulte votre msg de 2007..
êtes vous finalement partis vous installer ? à FORT DAUPHIN ?
si oui, comment se passe la vie au quotidien ? (santé/école pour les enfants/sécurité/ régime politique/relation entre les différentes communautés culturelles et religieuses /distractions/ approvisionnement denrées/logement...etc) vous adaptez vous facilement ?
si non, pourquoi ?
merci pour réponse éclairée et sincère qui m'intéresse vivement et rapidement !!
merci par avance,
sincèrement,
BSR,
je ne comprends pas trop votre réponse ...(c'est justement pcq je pense que ce n'est pas facile d'y habiter pour un/une "vazaha" que je demande des renseignements de gens en ayant fait déjà l'expérience !!
mais mon cas étant un peu particulier, je ne souhaite pas le révéler en public, donc peut on communiquer par mail privé ? Voici le mien : isabelleh21@hotmail.com
After living for many years in the West (Belgium, Italy, Switzerland),
I’ve decided to return and settle in Cameroon, my home country.
Currently an entrepreneur in real estate and transport, I’m looking for a partner / partners / foundation to collaborate on an agriculture project, as I own 10 hectares of land.
The hectares have remained unused for years due to a lack of financial means, since the project requires what I’d call a considerable investment. As the main stakeholder, I have a minimal contribution to offer.
I believe it’s time to bring this space to life to meet pressing needs and serve the common good of society.
The project is simple:
1) Grow maize + build a processing plant to produce flour
2) Open a mini supermarket + a modern bakery using the flour for pastries, etc.
3) Build a healthcare service
4) Build a nursery and primary school
5) Construct free housing for retired expatriates in exchange for their voluntary contributions in their respective fields.
This is a project I truly believe in, and I invite anyone interested to add their personal touch—whether through advice, guidance, or involvement.
Note: This project has national and international potential in terms of employment.
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!^^
