Quel pays me conseillereriez vous?
Bonjour,
tout dabord, je ne sais pas dans quel pays tu vis, mais si c'est en France, saches que la Guadeloupe, la Martinique et la Réunion (ainsi que la Guyane) sont EN France. Ce sont des départements français comme tous les autres. Ca n'est pas anodin de le savoir quand on planifie de s'installer la bas. 😉 Maintenant, je te l'accorde ce sont des départements français... dépaysants, quoique Lille peux être dépaysant pour un Marseillais.
J'ai vécu en Guadeloupe 4 ans, j'y suis revenus il y à 3 mois. Pour répondre à ta question, je te conseillerai (par ordre de mes préférences, connaissances et expériences) : - en premier la Réunion - la Martinique, - et la Guadeloupe Mon avis se base surtout sur la qualité et facilité de la vie.
D'abord la Réunion, car c'est une île magnifique. On y trouve certes peu de plages au sable blanc, mais les paysages sont sompteux, et la population y est trés diversifiées et chaleureuses. Nombre de mes amis y ayant vécu, la préfére de loin à la Guadeloupe par l'intégration qui y est beaucoup plus facile. La Martinique, quand à elle, présente beaucoup d'aspects similaires à la Guadeloupe, tout en ayant des infrastructures plus riches (routes, industries, commerces, ...) La mentalité y est plus dynamique et "métropolitaine" (ceci est un atout pour certains un défaut pour d'autres) Les mouvements sociaux (grèves, ..) y sont moins importants que la Guadeloupe. Par contre les paysages y sont plus pauvres. C'est une île sublime mais qui n'a pas la chance, comme la Guadeloupe, d'avoir des dépendances. - La Guadeloupe enfin, qui a des atouts innombrables (ses dépendances splendides : Les Saintes, Marie Galante, la Désirade..), un paysage somptueux, de magnifique plages de sables du plus blanc au plus noirs, mais qui malheureusement les exploite assez mal. L'île est en conflit social permanent, grèves à répetitions, blocus des pompes à essences, pannes d'eau, électricité, etc... et il est malheureusement difficile de s'intégrer réellement (je dis réellement car bien sur on peux y vivre bien, mais en tant que métropolitain, on sera toujours "d'ailleurs", et c'est un sentiment un peu difficile à gérer au bout d'un moment)
Donc voila pour répondre à ta question, Et je précise que tout l'avis que je porte n'est que le mien, d'autre pourrai te conseiller tout l'inverse 😛
Quand à ta branche de métier, la charpente métallique est trés présente en Guadeloupe, je ne sais pas sur les autres îles.
Si tu veux des infos sur la Guadeloupe en particulier, n'hésites pas

Salut Martiloup,
J'habite en Martinique depuis pas mal de temps et j'ai une boite de charpente bois. On fait donc des charpentes, de l'aménagement bois type decks, pergolas, varanges.
Ton CV peut m'interresser, on a pas mal de boulot pour cette année.
Votre offre pourais m'interesser avez vous une adresse mail pour en parler plus amplement?
Quel sont plus particulièrement les type de travaux que vous appliquer? Avez vous des photo (pout prendr la temperature tu pays) 🙂
Comment se passe la vie laba? Les horaires de travail? Les salaires?
Merci beaucoup
Salut, mon mail c'est casa.martinique@gmail.com
pour décrire l'ile, il y a le nord et le sud. Le nord est plus montagneux, plus vert mais pas moins sympa, ça bouge d'une autre façon, les gens sont plus cool ça brasse moins les touristes, donc moins de faux décors à la walt disney des antilles. Genre il y a Le Carbet avec plein de snacks au bord de la plage ou on se pose et ou tout le monde parle avec tout le monde. Seule différence le sable est un peu beige... Le sud, pour moi, c'est du surfait de l'arnaque à touriste qui est d'ailleurs bien souvent désagréable genre Marcel et Raymonde qui ont gagné un voyage de chez Panzani et qui n'ont aucune culture du voyage. Enfin tout le monde fait sa vie à sa guise. J'y habite depuis 14 ans et j'y suis arrivé à 20 ans. Les iles autour sont chouettes pour passer des vacances ou des weekend. A chacun d'etre capable d'y trouver son bonheur ! ... Dans ma profession, le batiment est régi par la convention collective du batiment de la Martinique, et les grilles de salaires correspondent aux mm échelons qu'en métropole. Bon y a plus de place envoi moi un mail. Bye

Bonjour voila j'ai 19ans et je souhaite partir a l'étranger (martinique, guadeloupe ou réunion) marre du train train quotidien pour m'y m'installer et y travailler mais je ne connais pas très bien le cout de la vie, les culture et si il y a du travaille.

la Martinique, c'est très sympa, il fait bon toute l'année (minimum 25°, max 32°), le nord caraibes où j'habite est un endroit magnifique, mais la société est très cloisonnée : métros d'un côté, noirs de l'autre et les békés au milieu. les métros n'aiment pas les békés, les noirs n'aiment pas les blancs, et les békés sont fermés. dans le nord caraibes, les gens sont beaucoup plus chaleureux qu'ailleurs. perso, je déteste la société d'ici, je suis ouverte d'esprit... les pires sont les métros (et pourtant je suis mariée à un métro !) qui croient tout connaître et tout comprendre et qui prennent les békés pour des racistes anti-noirs. Quelle stupidité ! comment les békés pourraient vivre en Martinique en étant racistes ??? D'après moi, je pense plutôt que ce sont les métros les vrais racistes, anti béké qui les jugent sans les connaître. Quant aux noirs, ils se suffisent à eux-mêmes, et étant en majorité, ils ne souffrent pas du tout du soi-disant racisme des békés. Je travaille avec des antillais noirs, et je les respecte autant qu'ils le méritent ! Et si les békés sont fermés, c'est parce que les gens ont de tels a priori sur eux qu'ils ne peuvent pas agir autrement ! il faut dire que la plupart des métros qui arrivent ici sont des fonctionnaires anti-béké qui ont tout le pouvoir pour les faire chier !
j'ai qu'une envie, c'est de me barrer d'ici, mais je pense qu'en tant que métro, on peut profiter du soleil sans pb et se faire des potes à condition d'être socialiste et de fumer de la beu...

d'abord, en Martinique, Guadeloupe ou Réunion on n'est pas a l'étranger, on est en France.....
pour le reste il suffit soit d'y aller et de trouver un emploi sur place, mais en ayant des réserves suffisantes pour vivre . Soit en faisant des demandes par internet ou telephone...

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!
Cheers,

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?
Thanks in advance for your replies!

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?
Thanks in advance for your replies!
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,
Has anyone gone on a language study trip in Europe? If so, which agencies did you use? What can you tell me about it? Thanks a lot! Kelkune
