Bonjour à tous,
je souhaite partir en Angleterre avec mon ami pour améliorer notre anglais. Nous travaillons tous deux dans l'hôtellerie depuis quelque temps et souhaitons trouver un poste intéressant la bas. Nous aimerions trouver du travail avant de partir mais actuellement en poste en France nous ne somme dispo qu'a partir de janvier 2013. J'ai déjà envoyé des CV à deux agences mais en vain.

Bonjour à toi 😉,
De plus en plus de français souhaitent s'expatrier : c'est une bonne chose. Pour ma part, je suis en Angleterre depuis quelque temps en tant qu'étudiant. Je me suis fait aider par un organisme pour trouver une business school. Je ne pense pas qu'il soit facile de trouver un emploi à distance, surtout dans ce milieu. En passant par un organisme comme worldiploma en France, certaines écoles de langue aident à trouver des jobs sur place, cela peut-être une solution.
Je vous conseille bien évidement la ville de Londres, Brighton ou Cambridge, qui sont des villes que j'apprécie. Connaissez-vous déjà un petit peu l'Angleterre ? Pourquoi ne pas vous y rendre au préalable afin de voir si vous vous y sentez à l'aise !
Si tu as d'autres questions n'hésites pas !
Denis

Bonsoir Denis,
Merci pour ta réponse. Nous ne connaissons pas du tout l'Angleterre, en effet nous pensions y aller peut être déjà en week end pour voir un peu comment cela se passe. En revanche concernant nos emplois nous avons un peu peur de partir à l'aventure car nos économies ne nous permettent pas encore de vivre quelque temps sans emploi. Concernant la vie dans ces trois villes, pense tu que brighton et Cambridge sont aussi cher que Londres j'ai eu quelques retour sur Londres qui me disait que c'était très cher pour s'y expatrier. Merci d'avance et bon vent à toi pour tes études ! Mélanie

Melanie, contrairement à ce que dit la personne ci-dessus, il n'est pas du tout facile de trouver un job en Angleterre actuellement. On trouve, bien sûr, mais il faut être prêt à travailler à des heures indues, pour des salaires assez faibles si l'on n'a pas de qualification en anglais, et surtout penser qu'il y a une concurrence féroce. Il est loin le temps (pré crise de 2008) où l'on trouvait facilement. Pour mettre toutes les chances de son côté, il faut avoir de quoi tenir 3 semaines financièrement, des CV prêts à imprimer dès que tu auras ton NIN, aller tout de suite au Job Centre pour avoir ledit NIN (sur RDV), avoir une petite expérience dans la restauration sur son CV, et distribuer des CV en personne tous les jours dans tous les bars/restos.
Si vous etes tous les deux dans l'hotellerie diplomes ou avec experience, toute les annonces ici passent par le http://www.caterer.com/ c'est le site choisis des restaurateurs et des hoteliers. Il y a de tout, des hotels un peu en dehors des villes proposant logement avec le travail ou en independant.
Seul truc si vous etes en france ils vous faudra ou venir pour une interview ou avoir des references en beton pour passer avec un interview au telephone.
Malgre ce qu est dit les emplois dans l'hotellerie sont transient, donc il y as toujours possibilitee si vous avez vos diplomes en poches ou une bonne experience.
Le porte a porte avec cv c'est plutot pour les etudiants sans experience aucune qui cherchent de petits boulots qui generalement ne paye pas suffisament pour couvrir loyer etc....
Janvier et fevrier en general sont des mois maigre en hotellerie et restauration dans toute l'europe.... entre saison de Noel et l'ete.

Melanie, contrairement à ce que dit la personne ci-dessus.
je précise que "la personne ci-dessus" dont je parle dans le message était un organisme commercial ou une arnaque, dont le message publicitaire a été effacé par les Mods (merci à eux). Le message désormais placé au-dessus du mien est sans problème.

Bonjour,
Merci pour votre réponse. En effet notre départ s'approche. Je me doute bien que janvier n'est pas la période idéal mais ce départ correspond à une fin de CDD c'est pour cela. Actuellement nous n'avons rien trouvé à distance. Nous avons édité nos CV pour le départ. Mais le problème c'est que nous ne savons pas du tout vers ou aller. On regarde les distances à bateau ou ferry vu que l'on prend notre voiture. Et après à l'arrivée on ne sait pas si c'est bien de rester sur les côtes (portsmouth, brighton, Southampton) ou s'il est préférable de monter au Nord vers les grandes villes (cambridge, londres, oxford, birmimgham) Si quelqu'un sait un peu ou c'est mieux de se poser en arrivant pour trouver un logement ou une auberge de jeunesse pour les premiers temps assez facilement le temps de trouver du travail ? Le but étant qu'on arrive mais qu'on puisse trouver un endroit pour dormir et ensuite de trouver du travail dans les 15 jours suivants. Nous avons tous deux une expérience significative dans l'hôtellerie nous ne faisons pas sa pour trouver un emploi c'est notre métier et nous avons travailler dans de grande maison, les agences de placements disent que l'ont a de bons CV mais n'ont rien à nous proposer. Je ne sais pas si c'est la distance de France ou la durée dans un mois. Merci à tous ceux qui pourront nous aider. Cdlt Mélanie

N'allez pas à Londres avec votre voiture, cela vous coutera un bras (et pas celui de la Manche !) rien qu'en frais de parking, de taxe journalière pour circuler dans le centre, et ne comptez pas échapper aux traffic warden qui sont redoutables ni aux amendes qui sont très amères...
Bonsoir
Merci pour vos réponses. En effet on a regarder et on pensait partir du Havre pour arriver a Portsmouth de la voir soit pour Brighton ou Southampton ou Bournemouth pour ne pas faire trop de route au début et peut être bouger dans d'autres villes quelques temps plus tard. On pensait pas à Londres car la vie doit etre à prix exhorbitant. Pensez vous qu'on trouvera des auberges de jeunesse pour les premières nuit en arrivant dans ces villes ? je n'ai aucune idée de la taille de ces villes enfait Pensez vous qu'a Brighton en Janvier sa sera pas mal quand même ? Merci beaucoup à tous

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 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?

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[;)!!!]

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
