bonjour a tous,
je compte d'ici 2/3 ans partir vivre la-bas, la France devient invivable...
j'aurais d'ici la 48 ans, j'aimerais savoir si d'autres femmes ont fait cette expérience,
y sont elles encore ? si oui, pourrait-on communiquer ? dans le même tranche d’age
car quant on est jeune, y a des choses qui nous passent au dessus, par contre vieillissant
ça passe plus ! 😕
alors évidemment je veux tout savoir, mentalité par ex, ça colle ?
ils aiment bien les frenchies ?
le boulot, je conduis les cars, y a t'il des opportunités ?
bref comme vous le voyez je suis très interrogative, et
j'attend vos réponses riches et précieuses...
a bientôt ?
Bonjour,
je suis, moi aussi interessée pour avoir quelques renseignements pour une future installation en australie...!! je vais Y partir d'ici début d'année trois semaines et je souhaiterai correspondre avec des personnes ayant des renseignements et j'en ferai autant de mon coté, merci par avance...........!
Echange de bons procédés, bon courage pour les recherches d'infos!
A bientôt.......;!
Valérie
En tant que touriste, tu es la bienvenue n'importe quand. Par contre pour un visa de resident permanent, attention les yeux, c'est plus franchement la meme histoire. Il y a un systeme de points en fonction de ton age, profession, niveau d'anglais.etc.
Vu ton age, si ta profession ne figure pas sur la liste des professions deficitaires, ca semble mal parti.
Bonjour, merci de m'avoir rendu réponse, je sais que de s'installer dasn un pays étranger n'est pas simple, c'est pour cela que la prise d'info est très importante.
Il semblerait que lorsqu'on atteint un certain âge, toutes les portes se ferment !
J'aimerais comme toi tenter l'aventure australienne car comme tu le dis , la France est désespérante. Personnellement je n'arrive plus à trouver d'emploi depuis l'année dernière.
J'ai 53 ans (très vieux, n'est-ce-pas !), j'ai déjà connu l'expatriation (8 ans aux USA) et j'ai encore plein d'énergie pour obtenir une vie meilleure et moins sclérosée.
Si tu veux, contacte moi, je pense qu'on pourrait s'entraider et se motiver !
Mon adresse : pas2211@yahoo.fr
Je suis alle 3 fois en Australie. La 1ere fois il y a 17 ans, la 2eme il y a 5 ans et il y a 6 mois.
Il y a 17 ans de ca, meme en ayant un frere qui etait la-bas depuis 1970 et qui me parrainait ca ne le faisais deja pas.Alors que depuis j'ai eu un visa de resident pour le Canada et les USA sans aucun probleme !
J'ai quand meme fait le con car il y eu quelques amnisties ensuite et j'aurai plus regulariser ma situation, comme quoi etre honnete ne paie plus de nos jours !
Je suis alle voir un avocat il y a 5 ans, le gars etait d'origine grec et as pris le temps de m'ecouter car il n'avait pas de client. Il m'a tout simplement conseille un mariage blanc car effectivement passe un certain age, on ne veut plus de toi.
J'en conclus que vu le nombre d'Australiens qui partent en vacances a Bali, il est nettement plus simple, rapide et moins cher d'aller denicher un mari ou une femme de paille la-bas que d'entamer des demarches longues, couteuses et incertaines !
Tu sembles bien connaître l'Australie, j'ai une autre question : si j'envoie des CV depuis la France à des entreprises australiennes, ai-je une chance de trouver du travail vu mon âge (53 ans je le rappelle).
Même si on n'est pas obligé de mettre son âge sur le CV, ils font vite le calcul avec les dates de diplômes.
Qu'en penses-tu , Peux-tu me renseigner ?
Merci
C'est rape d'avance car dans les pays anglo-saxons quand on a besoin de personnel, c'est plutot du genre pour le lendemain ou la semaine suivante. Ils n'ont pas le loisir comme ici d'attendre perpete.
De plus, tu risques de te griller si tu n'annonces pas d'entree de jeu que tu n'as pas de visa.
Compte tenu du systeme de points pour le visa et ton age, c'est tres fortement compromis je le crois ( desole).
Ceci etant, je t'invite a aller y faire un tour, vu le climat actuel en France (tant meteo, economique et social) ca ne peut que te faire du bien. La plupart des avocats d'immigration font payer la 1ere visite mais pas tous.
SI vous voulez venir et travailler il y a aussi la possibilite du visa etudiant via les ecoles tres peu cheres. C est a dire que vous payer environ 1300$ tous les 3 mois pour une formation en business, marketing, compta, etc. et obtenez un visa etudiant de 2 a 3 ans que vous maintenez tant que vous allez genre 2 x par semaine a l ecole pour quelques heures et payiez vos frais tous els 3 mois.
Merci mille fois pour votre réponse !
Par contre, 1300$ tous les 3 mois, ça revient cher, non ?
Pendant combien de temps doit-on payer cette somme ?
Est-il possible de travailler avec ce visa ?
Merci pour votre réponse
Je suppose que ce visa donne la possibilité de travailler car 1300$ à payer tous les 3 mois il faut pouvoir !
Comment puis-je avoir des renseignements plus détaillés sur le sujet ?
merci pour votre aide !
Ca se paie aussi longtemps que tu veux garder ton visa. Si tu arretes de payer ou aller au cours tu as generalement encore 28 jours de visa en plus generalement.
Tu obtiens ainsi un visa etudiant qui te permet de travailler officiellement 20 heures semaine les semaines de cours et a temps plein les vacances.
Salut Marine611, si vous voulez plus d'infos allez sur les sites :
www.immi.gov.au
www.australia-australie.com il y a un forum sur l'immigration et les marche a suivre de A a Z.
www.liveinvictoria.vic.gov.au
Sur ces sites vous pourrez même trouver si votre job est sur la liste.Mon mari et moi-même aimerions nous installer
en Australie avec notre fille de 6 ans parce que "ras le bol "😠de la France et aussi pour être avec mes soeurs.
Tenez moi au courrant.
a bientot.😎
D'accord pour tout sauf pour australie-australia qui est depuis longtemps devenu tout sauf un site de libre information, mais plutot un moyen de promotion qui n'accepte que ce qui va dans le sens de ces que ses sponsors ont envie d'entendre et de faire entendre pour leur propre intérêt.
Merci beaucoup pour ces précieuses informations !
Je vais consulter tous ces sites et vous tiendrais au courant.
D'accord pour le ras le bol de la France et de l'Europe en général, tout y est sclérosé !
Bonne chance pour vos démarches.
Pascale
Merci beaucoup pour ces infos.
le sujet est effectivement à creuser, je suppose que l'on doit pouvoir s'en sortir financièrement si plein de gens le font.
Bien que cela me semble difficile si on ne peut que travailler à mi-temps.
je vais quand même étudier la question.
Merci en tout cas pour ton aide !
Pascale
"l'on doit pouvoir s'en sortir financièrement si plein de gens le font" comme tu dis. Il y a effectivement des astuces vis a vis des limitations officielles du visa etudiant. Si tu veux ecris moi a vertephil2004@gmail.com et je t explique comment ils font.

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! 😄
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! :)
