je suis infirmier et j'aimerai me rendre en guyane. J'ai eu des réponses positives pour l'Hôpital de Cayenne et de St Laurent. Mais ce qui me ferai plaisir c'est d'essayer de travailler en dispensaire pendant quelques mois. Si vous avez de l'expérience dans ce domaine ou des infos pour contacter des personnes se serai sympa. D'autre part je ne voit pas trop où m'installer à mon arrivé, on m'a parlé également de St Georges et de sa proximité avec le Brésil et d'expéditions médicales de 1 à 2 semaines par mois. On me conseille souvent St Laurent, est-ce une bonne ville? De plus, les guides de voyages concernant la Guyane sont quasi inexistant sauf le petit futé. Merci d'avance pour tous les renseignements que vous pourrez m'apporter. topette cdric
Prends contact avec la DDASS pour travailler en dispensaire. Personnellememnt je te conseille ST-GEORGES, CAMOPI ou 3-SAUTS pour des remplacements. L'Est Guyanais est plus exotique....
MPY
Tout dépend de ce que tu recherches ! St Laurent est ville assez grande mais loin de Cayenne. Cayenne est au milieu entre St Georges et St Laurent, donc pratique pour bouger. Trois sauts, c'est sympa ( les indiens et la forêt) mais il faut savoir que tu ne peux y aller qu'en pirogue (long). Camopi est est à la limite de la zone interdite, tu peux rejoindre Cayenne par pirogue jusqu'à St Laurent puis le taxi, ou prendre un avion du club de Cayenne. Il y a aussi Maripasoula prés du Maroni. Une amie à moi a fait Maripasoula, Saül, et Trois sauts comme infirmière et ça lui beaucoup plu.
Donc tout depend de ce que tu veux vivres.

salut,
je suis interne, et j'ai passé un an en Guyane l'année derniere, moitie a Cayenne, moitie a St Laurent du Maroni (qui est une petite ville super sympa!!)
en ce qui concerne les Centres de Santé (dispensaires en brousse), ils dependent de l'hopital de Cayenne, donc il faudra passer par la direction des soins infirmiers la bas.
Souvent, ils demandent aux infirmiers de bosser un peu pour eux avant de les envoyer sur le fleuve (vu qu'ils manquent de monde..), enfin tu peux negocier.
J'ai un copain infirmier qui est la bas, si tu veux me donner ton adresse pour que je t'envoie son mail.
Concernant les guides de voyages, il n'y a effectivement que le petit futé qui n'est pas top, mais tu verras bien sur place ce qu'il y a a faire (plutot orienté balades en foret, pirogue sur le fleuve, canoe, plage...),
il y a un super guide de randos que tu trouveras sur place, et tu n'auras pas de mal a savoir ce qu'il y a de sympa a faire car la plupart des personnes la bas sont un peu dans le meme trip!
Pour ce qui est detail pratique, il y a un super site: blada.com
Si tu as d'autres questions n'hesite pas!
bonjour,
j'envisage de m'expatrier en guyane, en fait j'ai eu 2 reponses de l'hopital de cayenne et du centre hospîtalier ouest guyanais.
Peux tu me donner des informations sur les traitement de salaire qu'ils t'ont proposé, ainsi que sur les differents avantages, si ily en a, sur le ticket d'avion et aide financiere pour le logement......
MERCI de ta reponse et de rester en contact si tu le souhaites. voici mon e mail
Merci à vous quatre de m'avoir répondu. Désolé pour ce manque de rigueur de ma part pour les réponses mais ces derniers jours ont été bien occupés.
Merci pour tes conseils Mopouya d'aller sur l'est, par contre c'est un des seul endroit ou je n'ai aucun contact, si tu as une adresse utile à m'envoyer se serai sympa.
Sapokai l'infirmière que tu connais travaillais pour qui(hôpital, ong)?
Sophiematt mon adresse est: cedr.ouf@laposte.net. je te remercie de me mettre en contact avec ton ami. Il aura sûrement beaucoup d'informations à m'apporter.
Salut Teckocean, je suis actuellement en contact avec la DSSI de l'H de Cayenne. Apparement il paye le billet pour une mission égale à min 6 mois(aller-retour?). Et suivant ton cursus tu peux faire du dispensaire. Je viens de lui en voyer un mail pour d'avantage de questions, tel que: salaire, billet aller/retour, logement, et si on peut faire poitié H et moitié dispensaire.
Voilà ou j'en suis pour le moment. Je vais m'acheter une carte géo de la Guyane cet aprem pour mieux situé les petits villages.
Je vous remercie encore tous pour les infos.
Cdric
merci pour ta reponse, ma situation est la suivante; j'ai de nouveau recu un avis favorable pour une mutation(le 15/06/2006) je n'ai tjrs pas d'infos sur le traitement de salaire et autres......., bien sur je parle du centre hospitalier de cayenne.
en tout cas, ns restons en contact si tu veux bien
bonjour je suis encore qu'une eleve infirmiere mais je pense partir une fois mon diplome obtenu! j'aimerais partir ds les iles mais je ne connai rien des salaires des offres d'emploi et surtout de l'ile que je choisirais. Ce sera en fonction du cout de la vie et du salaire ! si qq1 s'y connait merci de m'eclairer !! a++
salut,
j'ai vécu 5 ans en Guyane, j'ai plutôt des infos sur l'ouest (saint Laurent et les villages noirs marons du Maroni) que j'adore.
si tu as des questions pratiques (pas trop par rapport à ton boulot, j'étais instit)
bye Laurenss
C'est en cherchant des infos sur la Guyane que je suis tombée sur ton message.Est-ce que tu voudrais bien partager ton experience d'instit en guyane pour me rassurer? J'ai l'intention de presenter le concours du CRPE en Mars pour partir travailler la-bas et y enmener mon conjoint et mon futur bebe (naissance pour novembre). J'entends beaucoup de négatif sur l'Ile et vu ton vécu j'aurais aime avoir ton opinion.D'ailleurs si tu peux me renseigner sur les conditions de vie / de travail et les avantages, ca serait super.Sais tu si il y a moyen de reçevoir une aide pour se loger quand on s'installe?
Merci d'avance,
Bye,
Ile aux Lotus
Bonjour!
Alors tu veux t'installer en Guyanne? Mon père est médecin là-bas, il a maintenant un cabinet à Cayenne mais il a travaillé à l'hôpital de Cayenne. Si tu veux je te donne son numéro de téléphone au Cabinet. C'est le Dr. Youssef Alamé : 00594350066
Tu lui dis que c'est moi, Aurélie qui te l'a donné. Bonne chance!
Merci à tout ceux qui ont participés à mes recherches pour ce départ en guyane, lili(attention à toi si tu es au Liban) je n'ai pas encore contacté ton père mais sa ne va pas tarder, je te remercie. Finalement je choisi donc la ville de St Laurent. En effet beaucoup de personnes me l'ont conseillé, sa à l'air d'être un village agréable. De plus d'un point de vue professionnel l'hôpital va bientôt prendre en charge les dispensaires situés sur le fleuve, ce qui était mon objectif principal. L'hôpital m'a proposé un contrat de six mois minimun début octobre renouvellable soit aux urgences ou médecine pour commencer, ce qui m'est profitable puisque je travaille dans le domaine de la psychiatrie depuis deux ans, je vais me refaire la main dans les soins. Et le petit plus pour ceux qui ne sont pas fortunés l'hôpital prends en charge le billet d'avion A/R sans que l'on avance les frais alors que les autres hôpitaux ne les avancent pas. En ce qui concerne les logements, il propose une résidence de trois mois le temps de s'organiser en plein centre et à 300 m de l'H pour un tarif de 520 euro/mois pour une personne sinon c'est plus cher.
Voili voilou, bientôt le départ pour une nouvelle aventure!
Bonne vacances à tous

Hi,
I’m looking for real first-hand experiences from adults who’ve done a language stay in Canada, specifically in Vancouver or Toronto.
There are so many different schools and reviews that are both negative and positive (how can you tell if they’re genuine?!) that I’d rather hear from real people.
I’m looking for fun courses where you really make progress in speaking and comprehension.
+ Homestay accommodation: good or bad idea?
I’m 35—this would be a once-in-a-lifetime experience for me since I’ve dreamed about it since I was 17!
I really don’t want to mess this up, especially given how much it costs!
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.?
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.
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! 😄
