je m'appelle anthony; 29 ans, je viens de finir un CDD en italie a parme. Je viens sur ce site pour recolter des infos; temoignages de personnes qui se sont expatriees en chine (stage, emploi, sejour a long terme...).
Je ne suis jamais allé en chine mais j'ai etudié le chinois au lycee et a la fac avec la méthode de ce cher bellasen...plus des cours en ecole de commerce sur l'eco et la culture chinoise.
Bref pas grand chose dans ma bourse mais une forte envie de decouvrir ce pays.
Donc si vous avez le temps; ce sera avec plaisir de lire vos infos.
j'aimerai connaitre les moyens pour trouver du boulot en chine a distance, faut il passer par les boites francaises ou prendre son sac a dos et faire du porte a porte...quel type de boulot peut trouver un francais qui parle anglais; italien; avec un profil ecole de commerce (derniere experience service export dans une boite de produits medicaux)...Un stage est il preferable...le niveau de vie en chine...faut il choisir pekin, shangai ou autres villes de la cote...Le temoignage de vie de francais qui vivent depuis au moins 1 an la bas...
Comme tu ne parles pas chinois tu dois t'orienter vers les entreprises etrangeres qui utilisent la plupart du temps l'anglais comme langue de communication.
Donc pour trouver du travail soit tu postules depuis ici ou bien en allant en chine meme. Mais le plus important cé de savoir si tu vas bosser avec un contrat local ou comme exapt.
et toi tu connais des boites auxquelles je peux postuler ? ou je prends le kompass et mailing de toutes les boites qui ont un etablissement sur shangai 😉
tu prends le kompass et regarde dans kel domaine tu veux postuler au lieu de t'eparpiller.
Je te conseille dans un 1er temps d'aller en vacances pour voir si cela va te plaire ou pas car la chine n'a rien a voir avec ce que tu peux lire dans les livres et les images d'epinal.
Bonjour Anthony
Je suis enseignante en français langues étrangères en Chine à Linyi Shandong. Je termine en juin et mon poste sera donc libre en septembre, si tu peux me faire passer un CV, je peux proposer ta candidature pour me succéder? mon mail: mamaminouche@hotmail.com c'est plus facile pour faire passer doc et photos.
A bientôt Francine
Parlant de travailler comme enseignant(e) de français en Chine; je ne reviendrai pas sur les points sur comment fait-on pour avoir un emploi comme celui-ci étant donné que cela a été discuté dans d'autres post. Mais j'ai quand même une question à ce sujet : l'employeur demande-t-il une formation académique particulière pour enseigner ou tout ce qu'il faut c'est de savoir bien le parler? Je suis québécois, je sais que je n'ai sûrement pas un français parfait😛, mais je me débrouilles bien à me faire comprendre sans complication lorsque je parles à mes cousins de la France. 😄 Est-ce que cela suffit?
salut,
Oui il est necessaire d'avoir un minimum d'étude en université et /ou de l expérience dans l enseignement des langues... Si tu veux + d'infos ecris-moi sur mamaminouche@hotmail.com
Bonjour j'aimeraias avoir un renseignement mon ami part travailler à Pekin ds a peu près 1 mois et j'aimerai le rejoindre pour vivre la bas et trouver susr place du travail mais il m'a dit qu'il fallait minimum bac+4 pr y travailler es que c vrai?
Et comment je peux faire pr avoir un visa de plus de 3 mois, svp vs pouvez m'aider? 😊
Bonjour,
pour avoir un travail en Chine, il n'est pas necessaire d'avoir bac+4 puisque chez eux ça correspond à leur doctorat! il y a bcp de demande sur Pékin, vas visiter le site: http://www.fle.fr/pro/emploi/index.html ou bien http://www.fdlm.org/fle/emploi/offresliste.html. je sais qu'il y a un centre de l'armée de l'air à pékin qui a besoin de répétiteurs et paie assez bien ( en Chine bien payé c'est 100RMB=10 €). Moi j'étais payée 4200RMB/MOIS et j'ai vécu tres bien avec ça. Sinon, déposez des affiches dans les universités car il y a une grande demande de cours particuliers. pour le visa longue durée, passez par le patron de votre ami sinon ce sera presque impossible, il n'y a que les employeurs qui peuvent le demander. Si cela ne marche pas, vous pourrez faire un saut en Corée et revenir apres! les voyages en avion ne sont pas chers en Chine. Au besoin, je vous donne l'adresse d'un ami chinois, collègue, prof d'anglais qui a appris le français seul: hongfeilhf@sina.com, il a beaucoup d'anciens élèves sur Pékin.
Voilà, bonne chance.
Cordialement
Francine
Merci bcp pr c renseignements mais le probleme aussi c'est que je ne parle pas un mot chinois je ne parle que anglais, thailandais, laotien et francais donc je pense que ce sera assé difficle pr moi de trouver un travail et mm pr les cours particulier.

Actuellement entrepreneur dans l'immobilier, transport, je cherche un(e) associé(e) / partenaires/ fondation pour un projet dans l'agriculture donc je suis propriétaire de 10 hectares de terrain.
Les hectares étant inexploités durant des années faute des moyens financiers car le projet nécessite un apport je dirait considérable , acteur principal que je suis je dispose d'un apport minimal.
Je crois qu'il est temps de donner vie à cette espace pour des besoins nesseciteux afin qu'il soit dans un intérêt commun à la société.
Le projet est simple :
1) Cultiver du maïs+usine de transformation en farine
2) Un mini super marché+une boulangerie moderne en utilisant la farine pour pâtisserie etc...
3) Construire un service de santé
4) Construire une école maternelle et primaire
5) Construire des logements gratuits pour expatriés à la retraite en échange de leurs participations gratuite dans leurs domaines respectives.
Ceci étant un projet dont j'y crois , j'invite toutes personnes intéressées à apporter une touche personnelle, sous la forme d'un conseil, une orientation et enfin une implication.
NB: projet à l'échelle nationale et internationale au niveau de l'emplois.
Mon slogan : être utile à la société de façon visible
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!^^
