Salut!!
je suis infirmiere à tahiti depuis 3 mois, a priori, d'apres les différentes personnes que j'ai pu rencontrer c plus rentable de travailler en clinique ici. je bosse en clinique et le salaire est plus élevé qu'à l'hopital. Apres, ca depend de ce que tu cherches, c sur que le boulot sera plus interessant à l'hopital qu'en clinique...comme en métropole d'ailleurs. en ce qui concerne les horaires, tu travailles en 12h partout. à savoir aussi qu'à l'hopital, tu as 90% de chances d'avoir un poste sur le pool, donc ne pas avoir de roulement fixe... en clinique par contre, surtout la mienne qui est grave en manque de personnel, tu es sure d'avoir un cdi d'office. niveau salaire, j'ai 2 ans et demi de DE et je gagne le double de ce que je gagnais en métropole dans le privé. soit environ 3000 euros par mois, mais je bosse de nuit... à l'hopital c'est un peu moins, il me semble que c 2200 euros environ.
venir ici est une experience vraiment incroyable, mais faut y etre preparée, tout est tres différent de la metropole, soit tu accroches et tu n'envisage meme plus un retour en france, soit tu accroches pas du tout et tu rentres au bout de kelkes mois.
dis moi ce que tu veux vraiment savoir, et je te renseignerais du mieux que je peux avec ma petite expérience polynésienne, mais sache qu'au niveau taf, tu en trouveras sans problème. c tout ce qui a autour qui est plus difficile à vivre.
n'hesite pas à poser des questions!

Bonjour, je vis actuellement en France sur la côte d'Azur, nous avons programmé un séjour sur la polynésie en decembre 2009, d'une part pour découvrir la polynésie et ses îles mais également pour voir si nous pourrions y vivre, en ce qui concerne le travail, mon amie est aide soignante depuis 18 ans en France, moi j'ai été pompier pendant 6 ans, je suis diplomé également du CCA ( diplome profesionnel ambulancier, et également j'ai le diplome professionnel de Taxi, je dispose également d'un diplome en vente action commercial et un en élèctrotechnique) si vous avez des informations, je souhaite savoir comment fonctionne le boulot de taxi et d'ambulancier à Tahiti et connaitre les rémunérations d'une aide soignante, d'un taxi et d'un ambulancier.
merci d'avance pour votre aide
salut.....
je suis infirmier a nice dans une clinique privée, avec deux amis (eux aussi infirmier..) nous voudrions vivre une experience soit en polynésie francaise soit en nouvelle caledonie. j'aimerais avoir des temoignages sur votre arrivée la bas: si vous avez trouvé du taff de suite ou si vous avez galéré?
si trouver un logement est difficile ou pas?
si il fo avoir beaucoup d'argent de coté pour les premieres semaines?
et plein d'autres questions qui sont peut etre des details pour vous mais qui nous permettrai d'organiser au mieux notre départ.....
merci d'avance de vos réponses.
la vie est belle!!!! et elle l'est encore plus au soleil.....
ia ora na! je bosse à paofai, ils cherchent ++++ des infirmiers et des aides soignants, tu peux y aller sans pb.
pour le monsieur pompier, je n'ai aucune idée du salaire d'un ambulancier ici mais les places sont cheres et pour les tahitiens, chauffeur de taxi c chaud aussi, y'en a pas bcp, pour les aides soignantes, je sais que trouver du taf c sans pb, par contre le salaire je n'en ai aucune idée....désolée.
pour etre pompier, si tu n'es pas d'ici, c mem pas la peine d'y penser, professionnel ou volontaire d'ailleurs.
voila!
pour la Polynésie pas d'impôts sur le revenu...mais une vie trés chère
et l'avantage indéniable de voir du bleu tous les jours...
mais n'envisagez pas une installation à Tahiti pour des avantages financiers quelconques! ce n'est pas le cas
Non biensur mais ça met du beurre dans les épinards surtout lorsque le salaire est généralement bas !
non, c'est le contact avec la nature et les locaux qui m'interesse...
N'y a t il pas des endroits non pourvus en soignants ? où les gens n'ont pas ou peu de possibilité de prise en charge en soin sinon en se déplaçant sur une autre ile ?
en tout cas, merci pour les renseignements

Salut et merci pour ton implication sur les réponses qui doivent ravir bcp de persnnes j'imagine.
Pour ma part, ma femme est kiné en France et a été kiné pendant 7 ans au Chili (son pays d'origine). Pourrais-tu me dire si les besoins en kiné en Polynésie sont existants et si tu as une idée du salaire qu'ils ont?
Vaut-il mieux être à l'hoital, clinique ou en libéral?
Merci bcp
Merci bcp
Voyager, c'est ma devise...
apres la lecture de tous ceux et celles qui veulent aller en polynésie, on va avoir une serieuse pénurie en Métropole..😊
c'est bien de rappeler qu'il n'y a pas d'avantages financiers quelconques, pas de surévaluation de salaires, qu'on travaille plus qu'en Métropole, qu'il est difficile de s'intégrer si on pense a l'argent et aux plages, que les loyers sont chers et la vie 1, 5 fois plus élevée qu'en métro, ça peut calmer des ardeurs, et c'est bien.

Bonjour,
Je suis Puéricultrice française et habite actuellement en Californie. Avec mon mari, nous souhaitons déménager très prochainement à Tahiti. J'aimerai savoir comment trouver les postes d'infirmières car je n'en trouve vraiment pas beaucoup alors qu'apparemment il y a une forte demande. J'ai essayé sefi.pf...et d'autres sites...en vain.
Merci d'avance pour ta réponse, et suis très contente que tout se passe bien pour toi.

Salut Magalou!
C'est avec grande attention que j'ai lu ton message! Je suis moi mm infirmière et j'arrive à tahiti fin novembre, j'ai donc quelques questions à te poser: --> Avais tu un poste dès ton arrivée à Papeete? Ou as tu cherché sur place en arrivant? Car j'ai envoyé CV+lettres de motiv aux 2 cliniques de papeete+au CHT de Mamao, mais aucune réponse des cliniques, tu précises pourtant ds ton message que la clinique ds laquelle tu bosses est en manque de personnel? Pour moi, pas de souci je suis ok pr travail de nuit ou de jour, ou les 2... Est ce q tu bosses ds la cliniq palofai ou cardella? J'espérai avoir au moins une date d'entretien avec un DRH ou directeur des soins lors de mon arrivée, hors là, pas de réponse de mes lettres... (ca fait certes pas très longtemps q je les ai envoyé, mais quand mm le stress monte car j'arrive à papeete ds 2 mois et demi!!)
Voilà j'espere que tu me répondras (pour me rassurer sur la possibilité de trouver un boulot d'infirmière là bas!!!) je te remercie beaucoup beaucoup d'avance!!!!!
PS dans quel service travailles tu? Ambiance sympa?
Merci encore, au revoir! 🙂
Ca m'etonne pas qu'ils ne t'ai pas repondu, ils preferent que tu viennes postuler directement sur place. J'étais partie une matinée avec cv et lettre de motiv sous le bras, pous postuler directement dans les cliniques et a l'hopital. Et à Paofai, la drh ma recu directement! C'est la ou je suis maintenant. RAS, bonne ambiance, j'ai vraiment pas à me plaindre!
Mais ne t'inkiete pas, que ce soit dans n'importe quel établissement, tu auras un poste!
bon courage!

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 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.?
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 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! !

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’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! 😄
