Bonjour,
je suis une etudiante de 23 ans qui aprt pendant 4 mois a Madagascar pour bosser a l'hopital et je suis a la recherche d'un logement. J'aurai aimer loger chez l'habitant, ce qui d'apres certain parait faisable, mais comment dois je m'y prendre ? Vaut il mieux que je trouve un hotel pour mes premiers jours pour voir directement sur place ? Quelqu'un a t il des bons contacts a me donner ?
Sinon j'arrive a Antananarivo a 22h donc pas sortie avant minuit de l'aeroport j'imagine... Etant une fille seule et vu les conditions actuelles, quelqu'un connaitrait il un hotel agréable, pas trop cher ou une chambre dhote pas loin de l'aeroport et qui vient nous chercher (pour pas me retrouver seule dans la rue au milieu de la nuit !)???
Merci de votre aide !!!
bonjour,
je pourrais te faire entrer en contact avec une amie qui travaille (à la PAF) et habite Ivato
elle pourra te trouver cela, et vu les conditions actuelles il faudra être prudente et avertie
cordialement
l'important n'est pas de convaincre, mais de donner à réfléchir
le mieux que je puisse vous conseiller pour éviter toutes les galères est effectivement se loger dans un hôtel pour les premiers jours surtout à votre arrivée.
Un certain nombre d'entre eux propose des formules spécials ONG, étudiants, associations, ... avec des possibilités de remise pour les longs séjours.
Voir du coté de l'hôtel Lambert ou l'hôtel Niaouly qui ont l'avantage tous les deux d'être excellent en rapport qualité/prix et d'être en centre-ville.A vous de choisir et de voir ce qui est mieux pour vos attentes.
Chez jeanne à Talatamaty est effectivement une excellente adresse. Jeanne est une fille super...
Mais je peux te donner une adresse d'une prof qui pourrais te loger à Tana dans le quartier à Ambamkabanhiny (sur la route circulaire). Cette persone connait bienle milieu étudiant : elle s'occupe d'un organisme Campus France et conseille et aide les jeunes malgaches qui veulent poursuivent leurs études en France
Excuse pour l'orthographe. Que les puristes veuillent bien rectifier. Merci.
Le quartier de l'hôtel Lambert n'est peut être très recommandable (surtout actuellement)

Pour la 1ere nuit y a un hotel LE CHEVAL BLANC qui est à 2 mn de l'aéroport c'est propre est pas cher et sur en + il ont une navette qui vient vous chercher et qui est gratuite.
Appeler la veille de votre départ pour confirmer votre arrivée à l'hotel.
Ne prenez pas un hotel dans le centre la 1ere nuit ca va vous couter un max en taxi surtout si vous connaissez pas les tarifs. le centre est loin de l'aéroport ANTANANARIVO est trés étendu.
Si vous avez un contact ( fort conseillé) demandé lui qu'il vous envoi un taxi avec qui il aura pu discuter le tarif.c'est plus sur
Ensuite residé pas trop loin de votre travail .
Attention à votre sac beaucoup de picpoquetteS
Bon séjour
Je vous laisse le no de tel de l'hotel appel de FRANCE: 002613202244646
Cordialement
Merci a tous pour votre aide qui me sera tres precieuse !
Je pense aller chez Jeanne pour me premiere nuit, vu que 3 personnes me l'ont conseillé, ca ne peut que etre bien !!!
Bonjour,
Je suis descendue au Tana-Jacaranda, une adresse sympa, à 10mn de l'hopital (dont je ne me souviens pas le nom). L'adresse m'a été conseillée par une amie étudiante en médecine qui a effectué un stage dans cet hopital. Les propriétaires sont sympa, tu peux utiliser une cuisine équipée et tu as internet gratuit. Je n'ai plus leur contact mais tu peux facilement le retrouver sur le net, ou si tu veux, je peux te brancher à la personne qui est restée 2mois chez eux. Ils assurent également le transfert-aéroport.
Bonne préparation, Sandrine
Tu peux lire les post de "skulla" sur le forum du routard; c'est l'étudiante qui a fait son stage à l'hôpital et qui a été logée au tana-jacaranda;

Bonjour, moi je me mele à votre conversation car je ne sais pas comment faire pour trouver une location de meublé 3 ch a diego et ce pour un an à compter de sept 2009. Rien dans les agences, j'y vais mi juin mais si vous avez des tuyaux pour m'aider merci. JO
Ne fais pas aux autres ce que tu ne veux pas qu'on te fasse.
apparemment tu cherches mais... au cas où tu seras dans le coin d'ivato, cette personne sauras d'un grand aide logistique et de mouvance sécuritaire
mais si, t'a pensé que c'est whig, okay

Faitira :
Je serai interressé par tes adresses chez l'habitant à Tana.
Penses-tu qu'il soit possible d'y rester pour quelques mois et même avec un petit budget (d'étudiante!)
Jebroquin :
L'adresse de la prof que tu évoques apparait aussi comme une aide précieuse. Elle n'héberge pas elle-même mais aide dans les recherches, c'est bien ça ?
Sinon, quels quartiers recomanderiez-vous pour une française isolée (pour le moment!) ?

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!^^
