Original post
Bonjour, nous sommes 3 étudiantes infimiéres et dans le cadre de notre stage optionnel de novembre à décembre, nous aimerions aller à Pondichéry ( pour la langue française ), on nous a parlé de la clinic Nallam mais nous n'arrivons pas à trouver son mail.. Sinon ya t-il une maternité??? Quel est le contact???
Quel est le climat à cette periode??
Merci de nous rrep rapidement, notre lettre doit étre fait pour le 10 mars.. !!
Bonjour, en Novembre Décembre en Inde du Sud c'est la mousson, il va donc faire autour de 25 à 30 degrés avec normalement des pluies fréquentes et abondantes.
La Nallam Clinic se trouve effectivement à Pondy, si vous ne trouvez pas le mail c'est surement parce qu'il n'y en a pas. J'ai trouvé ce numéro de téléphone sur le net: +(91)-413-2338100 ou 2335463, il va falloir a mon avis patouiller ferme avec les employés en anglais pour se faire comprendre. Même si Pondy est un ancien comptoir français, les gens parlent tamil et anglais, mais soyons clair, le français n'est quand même pas monnaie courante.
A 10 bornes de Pondy il y a un hôpital national (avec clinique) qui s'est construit il y a quelques années (http://pimsmmm.com/), bien plus moderne, si vous parlez anglais il y plus de chances pour que vous puissiez y étudier, Nallam est une petite structure et Pims est un énorme complex réputé dans la région. Mon père y a été admis l'an dernier suite a une triple fracture de la mâchoire, et moi même il y a quelques années pour une fêlure de la rotule.
Si vous avez d'autres questions, je peux essayer d'y répondre. En espérant vous avoir aidé, bonne chance :)

La Clinic Nallam est dirigée par le célèbre Dr Nallam, président de l'Alliance Française de Pondichéry.
Il accueille tous les ans des stagiaires français, médecins et infirmières.
Que son personnel parle surtout anglais et tamoul n'a pas d'importance. Il en va de même partout à Pondichéry.
La clinique n'a pas de site web, j'ignore si elle a une adresse mail.
Dans la discussion clicable ci-dessous, j'ai donné les coordonnées, et un lien permettant de contacter d'anciens stagiaires: http://voyageforum.com/v.f?post=2422968;#2422968

Si l'important c'est tout simplement que si elles souhaitent se rendre a Pondicherry étudier en espérant que les gens parlent français parce qu'elles ne sont pas très aguéries en anglais, et que le personnel (hormis le Dr Nallam apparement) ne parle pas, ça peut etre plus compliqué. En tout cas moi ça me parait etre un point à souligner.

Evidemment, il parait difficile de faire un stage dans nimporte quel établissement pondichérien, et indien en général, sans être capable de converser en anglais.
J'avoue que ne sais pas combien de médecins sont encore francophones dans la Clinic Nallam. Je n'ai personnellement été en contact qu'avec Nallam et l'un de ses collègues francophones qui est malheureusement mort l'an passé. Je n'ai jamais pensé à leur demander s'ils étaient les seuls.
Je sais néanmoins que tous les stagiaires du Dr Nallam reviennent enchantés de leur séjour, et qu'ils se soutiennent mutuellement. Notre candidate à un stage en apprendra davantage en contactant elle même d'anciens stagiaires.
A propos de langue française, j'ai noté une petite étourderie dans ton orthographe: tu as écrit "Pondicherry" en anglais, dans un message en français. 😉

Je ne sais pas si c'est vraiment une étourderie je l'écris toujours comme ça, et la plupart du temps je dis Pondy, même si c'est un ancien comptoir français, mes contacts la-bas sont principalement anglophones et du coup j'ai développé certains automatismes

Tout le monde dit Pondy: les anglophones, les tamoulophones, et les francophones.
Mais écrire le nom de la ville en anglais dans une phrase française, voilà qui n'est point faire honneur à l'ancienne capitale des Indes Françaises, ni au Lycée Français de Pondichéry dont tu fus l'élève.
Respectons notre héritage, notre patrimoine, notre langue, et nous serons respectés par les nations qui respectent les leurs, à commencer par les Indiens.

Qu'est-ce que tu veux que je te dise? Moi mon héritage (mon expérience si tu préfères) s'est développé en anglais. C'est un peu lourdingue de devoir me justifier. Je vais aussi me faire rabrouer parce que je dit Mahabalipuram au lieu de Mamalapuram, Bombay au lieu de Mumbai ou Madras au lieu de Chennnai? Je n'ai pas l'impression de manque r de respect à qui que ce soit, il faut parfois essayer d'etre moins psycho-rigide. Bonne journée 🙂

Bombay, Madras et Mahabalipuram sont parfaitement acceptables.
Il ne s'agit pas là d'orthographe (façon d'écrire), mais de dénominations (façons de parler) officiellement abandonnées par les autorités indiennes, mais qui ont encore cours dans l'usage (la façon de parler) français, tout comme dans l'usage anglais.
Il ne s'agit pas, dans le cas qui nous occupe, de psycho-rigidité mais de souci du bien écrire. Ou alors, les linguistes, les grammairiens, les académiciens, les professeurs, les professionnels de la langue, sont tous atteints de blocages mentaux.

Si, dans un soucis d'authenticité tu tiens réellement à respecter l'actuelle dénomination à la fois nationale (indienne bien sur) et internationale, tu auras surement noté que depuis quelque années la ville a récupéré sa graphie et sa prononciation d'avant colonisation française à savoir Puducherry. Mais bon, je ne m'en sert pas.... Toi si?
Merci de me laisser écrire le nom de la ville comme je l'entend, les gens comprennent (toi aussi d'ailleurs soit dit en passant), mon niveau de français est correct et j'écris en respectant l'orthographe (à quelques erreurs près, corriges-moi si je me trompe je ne m'en sort pas trop mal). Comme je n'ai dénigré personne et que je ne vois pas l'intérêt de continuer sur cette voie, j'estime que la discution (stérile) est close.

Je crois confonds la rigidité qui est une tare, avec la rigueur qui est une vertu.
Lorsque l'on parle la langue de Molière, l'on a, en effet, à presént, le choix entre Pondichéry (mot français) et Puducherry, la dénomination officielle tamoulomorphe, adoptée en juin 2007 par le gouvernement pondichérien, et qui semble avoir déjà été acceptée par le Quai d'Orsay, mais qui mettra très longtemps, si elle y parvient à entrer dans les gosiers français ordinaires (l'usage, la façon de parler). Quant aux gosiers tamouls, ils ont, même eux, un peu de mal à l'intégrer.
(D'ailleurs, en tamoul correct, on devrait écrire Puduchcherri, ce qui signifie "Villeneuve", mais c'est encore un autre débat 😏)

Hi everyone,
I’ve got a job offer in Cebu and I’m currently negotiating the financial terms...
For those of you who are experienced or expats there, could someone help me evaluate the cost of living so I can get an idea of my monthly budget?
- Rent for an apartment or small house (2 people) - Miscellaneous expenses: utilities, electricity, phone, internet, insurance - Local taxes or fees?
Thanks for your help, tips, and experiences!

Hi,
I’m leaving on September 4th for Vancouver as a tourist for 6 months.
My boyfriend works there, so I’m going to visit him. I’d like to take the opportunity to learn English at a school during October and November.
Could you recommend any schools—price, activities, location, reputation, etc.?
Also, any good health insurance suggestions?

Hi! I’m 76 and have traveled a lot in my life, and now I’m looking to settle in Réunion.
I’ve seen a retirement community in Saint-Pierre (Ravine des Cabris) and a residence called Village d’Or in Sainte-Clotilde. I have a feeling that living in Saint-Joseph might be better. I’ve submitted both applications and would love your thoughts—also if you know of any friendly small residences for rent, or if you have experience living there.
My pension is 1,460 €.
Thanks so much for your help! Looking forward to hearing from you—warm regards to everyone

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.
My slogan: To be visibly useful to society
You’ve got to dare, even if it makes you tremble.

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’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! 🥺🏻

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! !

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!

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! :)
