Quelle ville d'espagne pour Erasmus?
by Lux
This discussion is in French, the community’s main language.
Original post
Je voudrais partir l'an prochain pour 1 an en espagne et je ne sais pas encore quelle ville m'attire le plus : valladolid, valence, murcia, albacete, oviedo, zaragosse ??
Si vous voulais m'aiguiller, me donner vos avis, souvenis...
Savoir si le logement est cher, quelle est l'ambiance, la météo....
pour le moment je suis très indécise et un peu paumée !!
Merci beaucoup d'avance !
Merci beaucoup d'avance !
😏😏Hola hola futur Erasmus!!!!
Je viens.. du Nord est, et je suis cette année Erasmus à Zaragoza depuis Septembre, donc je vais juste pouvoir t'aider sur cette ville parce que les autres, je n'y connais personne qui étudie là bas...
Moi j'ai choisi Zaragoza, parce que dans le choix de ville que j'avais, c'était la seule qui parlait castillan et donc je me suis dis que j'aurais plus de chance de capter deux trois trucs au début.. et oui vraiment que deux trois trucs.. fin bref passons, tu n'as même pas ce souci de langue avec tes villes..Mais mon choix s'est aussi fait parce qu'elle est très bien situé (même si loin de la fascinante Andalousie) vu qu'elle est pile entre Madrid et Barcelone (environ 3h de bus pour y aller).
Ma prof d'espagnol en France m'avait aussi conseillé Zaragoza, c'est une ville d'environ 650 000 habitants, très jeune et avec bcp de fêtes (la fête sacrée c'est le pilar. en octobre, c'est férié pdt une semaine et c'est la folie, c'est très impresionnant)...
Il y a une partie de la ville plus ancienne, avec tous les bars typiques et les spécialités (tapas d'ici etc), le temps c'est apparemment très chaud l'été, il fait doux jusqu'en octobre et après il fait pas trop trop froid (je te rappelle que je viens du Nord 😎) mais il y a un sale vent!!! il faut bien le dire!!!😛
Pour se loger, c'est facile, ici c'est surtout de la colocation, il y a bcp d'annonces sur internet ou à la fac, en colocation tu peux trouver pour environ 180 euros...
Et pour voyager, il existe un grand réseau de bus pas cher (aller jusqu'à barcelone, 12euros). Par contre l'aéroport de zaragoza c'est essentiellement Ryan Air pour londres et Milan...
Voilà ce sera tout, 😏, j'espère que je t'ai aiguillé, sinon n'hésite pas!!!
Hasta luego!!!

salut! eh bien moi j'ai fait erasmus a Murcie, et j'y suis maintenant depuis plus de 4 ans!!!!
C'est une ville que je conseille si tu veux découvrir l'espagne, car elle est bien située. Je t'explique: tu es a 4 heures de Madrid, 3 de valence, et 45 minutes d'alicante. L'andalousie est pas trop loin non plus.
Ensuite, c'est une ville ou viennent beaucoup d'étudiants erasmus, et tu peux etre sur de te faire des amis du monde entier.
Autre avantage et pas des moindre: l'accent est tellement fort, (difficile de tout comprendre au debut) qu'une fois que tu comprends les murciens, tu n'auras aucun probleme ailleurs en espagne. C'est une bonne ecole 😉
Il fait presque toujours soleil, il y a des fete pendant tout le printemps, et ce n'est pas une ville trop grande encore, meme si ça augmente d'annee en année. Tu peux aller partout a pieds, et c'est VRAIMENT un avantage.
Enfin, choisi bien, mais de toute façon, y a plein d'autres villes geniales

Hola jeremymurcia,
je t'écris juste par simple curiosité (très saine), parce que je suis moi même erasmus et moi de même je veux pas revenir en France, non c'est sympa le Nord est mais non je veux pas, alors je voudrai juste savoir ce que tu fais là bas depuis 4 ans... Mais si tu réponds pas c'est pas grave, rien que le fait de voir que certains sont restés me rassurent!!!
Allez éclate toi bien dans ton pays et hasta luego!!😛

salut anita.
Ça me dérange pas de te répondre. À murcie, il y a beaucoup de français (en proportion, plus qu'à Madrid, si on compte ceux qui, comme moi, ne sont pas inscrit au consulat).
J'ai fait ma première année erasmus. L'année suivante, j'ai pu continuer, mais sans les bourses, donc il a fallut travailler (cours de français). La troisième année, j'ai travaillé comme lecteur de français dans un lycée de la région. La 4ème année, j'ai donné plein de cours particulier car je ne trouvait pas de travail (même pas auX Mc Do et autres trucs du même genre!!!), donc c'était la grosse débrouille (je crois que ça, je ne le referai pas) et cette année, c'est la même chose mais plus organisé.
Si tu veux rester, il faut que tu sois sure de ce que tu compte faire. Si ton expérience universitaire et professionnelle te permettent de trouver un boulot, vas-y. Sinon, pense a tre faire homologué, et alors la, ne crois pas que le fait de vivre dans l union européenne va te faciliter les choses (ça, c'est le discours des médias, pas la réalité). Moi je suis en train de le faire, et je t assure que je m arrache les cheveux.
Mais bon, ça vaut le coup de choisir de rester.
Si tu as d'autres questions, n'hésite pas.
Bye
Jem
Hola !!!
Merci beaucoup pour ta réponse, figure toi que je reviens du consulat français de Zaragoza et qu'est ce que je me marre....🤪 Oui donc votre maitrise est européenne avec la réforme LMD mais l'Espagne n'est pas passée à la réforme donc c'est très intelligent tout ça et je pense que je ne vais pas tarder à devenir chauve moi aussi, j'ai déjà commencé à palir qd elle m'a dit que l'homologation prenait un an.... et je ne connais pas encore toutes les démarches..
Je donne pas mal de cours de français cette année pour mettre de l'argent de côté (théoriquement), je voudrais être prof de français ici mais peut-être que je finirai à faire des mac paris...😏
Bon courage et vive l'europe .... ahahah.. je me demande ce que c'est avec les nouveaux pays...

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 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?

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!

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!^^
