Voila, j'ai 27 ans, je suis marié (+2 enfants);et je rêve de m'installer (si possible dès septembre 2007) avec ma petite famille en URUGUAY. Mais je ne sais pas comment m'y prendre : à qui faut-il s'adresser et surtout trouve-t-on facilement du travail là-bas...
Pour info, je suis Bac +6 et actuellement cadre dans les travaux publics.
Muchissimas gracias a todos por su ayuda...
Bon, d'après ce que j'ai appris des amis étrangers qui ont voulu rester ici, tu dois avoir un contrat de travail pour avoir la permission de résidence (plus de 3 mois) ou des propriétés (pour prouver qui tu as comment te soutenir).
Pour obtenir un travail, en général je crois que tu devrais absolumment parler l'espagnol. Sauf si tu as une spécialité qui te permet de travailler ici quand même.
BOn courage!
Merci d'avoir bien voulu répondre à mon message; je suis en train d'envoyer des CV à quelques entreprises françaises dont je connais le nom en URUGUAY (Géant....). Si tu en connait d'autres, ça m'intéresse. En fait, ça va, je parle espagnol: j'ai déjà passé 6 mois en ARGENTINE (+vacances espagne et autre...). Je vais essayer de chercher un poste de DRH ou chef de centre dans le domaines des TP.....
Merci et à bientôt. Si tu as d'autres infos, n'hésite pas: ça m'aidera forcément.😉
bonjour, je suis moi meme dans le batiment et souhaite m'installer en argentine ou uruguay. Avez vous pensé à la possibilité de vous mettre à votre compte. Je pense, en voyant leurs villas qu'il y a moyen de créer des habitations plus dans le ton de nos vies actuelles. A suivre. Amitiés. Eric
Merci pour la réponse. C'est clair j'ai moi-même vécu 6 mois en Argentine et il y a de quoi faire. Le hic, c'est qu'étant officier dans un Régiment de Travaux publics (création routes, parkings, pistes d'aérodrome, voiries au profit de l'armée de l'Air), je n'ai pas cette expérience du monde civil qui me permettrai de me lancer directement dans la création d'une boîte tout seul. J'ai bcp voyagé grâce à mon boulot, mais cela ne suffit pas.
Je pense néanmoins que l'URUGUAY est la destination à privilégier: niveau de vie intérressant à MONTEVIDEO qui donnerait à cette entreprise de bonne chance d'aboutir (attrait pour le mode de vie européen de la part de la classe aisée...).
Donnez-moi de vos nouvelles...
Bien sincèrement.
Gilles.
Bien, pour ma part j'en suis encore à l'étude de ces deux pays, moi choix se fera dans les deux mois qui viennent quand à ma destination. Pour la création d'entreprise tout dépendra des prix sur place des terrains et de la demande. Il faut voir aussi avec les fabriquants de maisons bois, certains au bresl proposent des modèles très sympa à des prix abordables. A suivre..........
bonjour a tous les deux
j'ai lu et suis intéressé d'entrer en contact avec vous
je suis spécialiste produits finition du batiment
pour info je suis belge (55 ANS)j'ai vecu et travaillé + de 20 ans dans différent pays hispanique et je suis rentré au pays depuis 3 ans avec un seul désir de repartir, je ne m'adapte plus a la vie Belge
quelques critères
dans les pays sud américains parlé l'espagnol est indispensable, ciblé un pays tranquille, de préférence pas trop grand, attention aux grand mouvement politique, guerre, révolution, en général un bon pays est celui dont on ne parle pas a la télé.
si possible avoir de l'expérience et surtout un capital départ ne pas trop compter avec les banques locales
a moin d'etre envoyé par une société européenne les salaires locaux en général ne permettent pas de vivre dans de bonnes conditions
donc la solution ouvrir une ou plusieures affaires.
j'ai bien entendu beaucoup d'expérience et une capacité d'investissement
j'attend vos messages
bonjour, votre message peut etre evidement interessant, toutes les expertises professionnelles sont bonnes à prendre. Pour l'instant je dirige une petite entreprise de rénovation de batiments anciens et création de logements moyennes et hauts de gamme. Je rejoins completement votre analyse quand au choix du pays, d'oû mon intéret pour l'uruguay. Mon adresse hotmail msn au cas ou: pericerou@hotmail.com. A+ je pense Eric
VOTRE DISCUSSION M INTERESSE, BILINGUE EN ESPAGNOL JE CONNAIS BIEN L AMERIQUE DU SUD NOTAMMENT L ARGENTINE ET L'URUGUAY. PENDANT 5 ANS, J IMPORTAIS DE L'ARTISANAT ANDIN EN FRANCE. DEPUIS 2 ANS J'AI COMMENCE A PROSPECTER EN ARGENTINE EN VU D'Y INVESTIR DANS L'IMMOBILIER. POURQUOI PAS RESTER EN CONTACT? JE SERAI PROBABLEMENT A BUENOS AIRES A PARTIR DE DEBUT NOVEMBRE.
A BIENTOT,
😇 Bjour ! un autre qui voudrait s'installer en Uruguay ! Pour cela je recherche des infos pratiques et comme tu t'interesse à l'immobilier tu peux peut être donner des infos sur les prix location d'une maison près de Montevideo ou Colonia ? Y a t il du travail dans le bâtiment ? construction de maison ou rénovation ?
Merci de répondre
et bonne année 2007 !
😉Bonjour Liniaz ! je suis nouveau sur le forum. j'ai vu votre commentaire. J'ai l'intention de partir de France où je travaille (employé) dans le bâtiment plaquiste carrelage rénovation. J'ai pensé aussi à l'Uruguay, pays calme, sûr, "la Suisse le l"Amérique Latine" (il ne faut pas trop rêver quand même !) et le but est de créer son entreprise bien sûr. Où en etes vous ? ça m'interesserait de communiquer avec vous échanger nos avis et voir si on peut faire quelque chose de sérieux là bas
mon mais est rperraud@hotmail.com
Bonjour Liniaz, avez-vous decidé de vous installer en Amerique du Sud? En Uruguay? Je vis au Chili depuis presqu´un an et je vais en Uruguay la semaine prochaine pour voir des projets immobiliers...Si cela vous intésse, vous pouvez me contacter à l´adresse e-mail suivante: connected@redhotchili.cl.
Vous avez raison, le mieux quand on vient s´installer en Amérique du Sud est de trouver un produit ou un service a vendre à línternational car les salaires locaux sont très faibles par rapport aux salaires européens ou Amérique du Nord... Ou bien, si vous pouvez exporter des produits francais en Amérque du Sud, c´est une autre option qui plaìt beaucoup à la balance commercaile de la France...
Pour toutes les personnes intérressées également par le Chili, vous pouvez me contacter, je serai ravie de vous lire!
A très bientôt, Ida.

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!^^
Hello. We’re a couple with an 11-year-old daughter and we’re looking for a good deal on a bar and/or restaurant in the tourist areas of Playa del Carmen, Tulum, or Mérida. If anyone knows of one or is on the ground and can give us some great tips, we’d really appreciate it. Thanks in advance. Safe travels.
