Bonjour,
je souhaiterais m'installer au Maroc, j'ai une préférence pour Essaouira mais toutes les propositions sont les bienvenues.Je suis réceptionniste, je parle français/anglais et j'ai commencé l'arabe. Je recherche un emploi dans le secteur associatif, culturel(donner des cours aussi) par exemple.
Si vous pouvez m'aider, ne fût-ce que par des renseignements, ce serait un bonheur pour moi! Je suis convaincue que ma vie est là-bas, c'est difficile à expliquer mais c'est une évidence... Merci à tous.
Nathalie
Habitant à Essaouira je peux t'assurer que ce ne sera pas facile de trouver un job..Les places de réceptionnistes dans les hotels sont prises par les locaux.. Dans le secteur associatif.... oublie... un peu désolé de refroidir ton enthousiasme et te souhaite bon courage.
Merçi pour votre message. N'ayez pas peur de m'avoir découragée:il m'en faut plus que cela!Mais j'ai conscience qu'il est difficile de trouver du travail...d'autant qu'Essaouira n'est pas très grand. Je n'ai pas encore eu la chance de me rendre au Maroc mais j'en suis tombée amoureuse... Et je connais l'envers du décor pour touristes car mon ami est marocain, il est né et a grandi à Casablanca. Vous avez beaucoup de chance de vous réveiller chaque matin avec un paysage féérique!
Peut-être à bientôt...qui sait!
Nathalie
salut, je vis au maroc depuis 3 ans, à rabat
je peux juste te donner un tuyau si tu es prete à donner des cours de francais: les instituts culturels francais (rabat, tanger, casa par exemple) recrutent des contrats locaux, francais ou marocains pour donner des cours à des enfants ou a des adultes, ils payent mieux que les entreprises marocaines. pour te donner un exemple, un ami est réceptionniste dans un grand hotel de meknes et parle anglais: 6 jours sur 7 pour moins de 200 euros par mois...
sinon, coté associatif, ca ne paie pas vraiment et reste souvent au stade du bénévolat à moins de trouver avant de partir un contrat avec une boite internationale
bonne chance dans tes recherches et si tu as d'autres questions n'hesite pas

Bonjour,
J'ai vécu plusieurs mois à Essaouira et ai notamment travaillé dans le secteur associatif (artistique et culturel). Essaouira est une ville minuscule où il est très difficile de trouver un travail rémunéré dans ce secteur. Si tu cherches une activité salariée, il vaudrait peut être mieux que tu t'approches de Marrakech qui comporte un peu plus d'opportunités à ce niveau. De plus, les codes, critères et lois au Maroc sont complètement différentes de ce que tu as vécu jusqu'à présent, et concrètement bien rudes pour une française au boulot. De plus Essaouira regorge de français à l'affut du peu d'offres existantes. En plus, la ville est de plus en plus défigurée par le tourisme, qui crée à mon sens d'énormes tensions.
Par contre, si tu as du temps, et que tu es motivée pour aider bénévolement des associations locales, je peux te tenir au courant des projets en cours et te donner des contacts.
N'hésite pas,
Delphine

Bonjour Caro,
merçi pour ta proposition, tu peux me donner les renseignements concernant la posibilité de donner des cours de français? Je suis vraiment intéressée... Je n'ai pas encore de date prévue pour organiser mon départ, je veux mettre toutes les chances de mon côté avant. Encore merçi pour ton aide. A bientôt, Nathalie.😉
salut, si tu veux plus de renseignements, va directement sur le site de l'institut, tape institut francais rabat dans google et tu auras acces à celui de rabat ainsi qu'aux autres instituts au maroc. Il y a en ce moment une annonce pour un job. De plus, Une amie à moi a quitter son poste ce mois ci, elle donnait 4h de cours le mercredi apres midi à salé à des enfants de 7 ans. Je pense que le mieux est que tu les appelles directement, tu as les coordonnées sur le site.
Sinon, sache qu'ici les parents (aisés) qui mettent leurs enfants à l'école francaise sont adeptes des profs particuliers, en mettant des annonces à l'entrée des écoles de la ville (école cézanne, chesnier, malraux, college st exupéry, college malraux, lycée descartes (qui fait college et lycée)) tu peux trouver des heures en appoint et ce n'est pas mal payé. Précise sur l'annonce tes compétences et précise surtout que tu es francaise ( ou belge, en tous cas ils préfèrent les étrangers aux marocains....)
quand arrives tu à rabat? as tu un logement?
bonne chance et peut etre à bientot sous les pluies diluviennes... eh oui, en ce moment le temps est digne de la mousson...

Bonjour,
Je ne connais pas grand chose sur la legislation du travail, les salaires, le temps de travail. et j'ai été contacté par une agence de pub pour travailler à Rabat.
Pourriez vous m'eclairer sur les conditions de vie au Maroc?
Voila ce que l'employeur m'a proposé, je ne sais pas ce que cela signifie reellement un salaire mensuel net d'impôt (au Maroc, l'impôt sur le revenu est prélevé à la source) de 18.000 DH Net, correspondant - à niveau de vie équivalent - à 2600€ hors impôt à Paris une connexion internet ADSL un billet d'avion aller-retour (Paris-Rabat-Paris) "Open" par an pour une personne.
Merci beaucoup beaucoup beaucoup

Bonjour Caro,
1grand merçi pour ton message et tes informations mais malheureusement, il m'est impossible de partir dans l'immédiat. Je vais aller sur le site pour obtenir toutes le infos que je pourrais. Ca me permettra d'en discute plus concrètement avec mon ami et de nous organiser.

Bonjour Nathalie
Je vois que vous etes amoureuse d´Essaouira comme moi. Malheureusement, peu de possibilités d´y trouver un job, ou alors avec un salaire derisoire. Possibilés á Rabat ou á Casa comme suggere l´autre membre, mais ds ces villes la qualité de la vie et autre qu´a essaouira (loyer, transport...), ou peut etre commencez pa la comme etape et experience avant Essaouira. L´autre possibilité si vous voulez absolument vivre á Essaouira: Un petit capital Mon avis est un peu decourageant mais c mieuxde savoir. Salutations

bonjour Titopuente
Je voudrais juste dire que 18000 dh par mois au Maroc est environs le double d´un salaire d´ingenieur ou de medecin. Un enseignant moyen a 5000 dh par mois. Voila

Bonjour,
toutes mes excuses pour cette réponse plus que tardive, je suis affreusement gênée... Je n'ai plus eu l'occasion de me connecter suite à des problèmes familiaux conséquents.
Je tenais pourtant à vous répondre malgrès le temps écoulé.
Je vous remercie pour votre message et c'est toujours un immense plaisir pour moi de "rencontrer" des amoureux d'Essaouira(ou du Maroc).
Je sais que s'installer là-bas est difficile vu le peu d'opportunité d'offres d'emploi mais l'espoir demeure... Inch'Allah...
Encore toutes mes excuses.
Nathalie
Bonjour,
ton message m'a touchée et je te remercie. Je n'ai pas eu l'occasion de me connecter depuis pas mal de temps car j'étais submergée par divers problèmes familiaux difficiles? Je suis toujours en Belgique car il est difficile de s'installer au Maroc vu le peu d'opportunité d'emploi... et sans ça, c'est impossible. Mais je garde espoir, je sais qu'un jour, Inch'Allah, j'y arriverais! Ce ne sera peut-être pas pour y vivre immédiatement mais ... Moi, je n'attache pas d'importance au fait que des gens autour de moi ne comprenne pas ce que je ressens vis-à-vis d'Essaouira ou du Maroc. Si tu as besoin ou envie de parler de ton désir du Maroc, tu peux me contacter à cette adresse: Nathmouton@hotmail.com
Malheureusement, je n'ai pas internet chez moi et je ne peux donc pas me connecter tous les jours mais je te répondrais si tu m'écris, à chaque fois que je pourrais!
A bientôt qui sait et ne te décourage pas!😛
Nathalie

Bonjour
je viens de lire votre message concernant votre amour pour ESSAOUIRA
Je reviens de cette ville il y a une semaine avec ma soeur et nos filles agées toutes les 2 de 14 ans
On est tombé aussi sous le charme
Mon souhait est de repartir au plus vite
En plus, on a fait de magnifiques rencontres
Je commence à regarder les offres d'emploi, mais à vous lire, c'est plus dure que prévu
Mes proches aussi ne comprennent pas ma position...mais ce n'est pas grave non plus
C'est moi qui suis tombée amoureuse de cette ville, pas les autres
Ma soeur a aussi craqué sur un Homme d'Essaouira et on se verrait bien partir avec nos filles
La vie est tellement plus agréable la bas;..pas le stress de la FRANCE
Au plaisir de vous lire

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?
Thanks in advance!

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! !

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?

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[;)!!!]

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.
