Hi everybody.
Been living in France for over 10 years...more specifically Cholet(60 km south of Nantes) and getting a bit tired of only speaking french. Would love to meet other native speakers and share experiences.

Ohhh...and I'm danish/Canadian married to a Frenchman. Currently unemployed as we've just come back to France a month ago from a year of living in South Korea.

Hope to meet some of you for drinks sometime soon.

Best to you all

Hello Everyone,
Glad to know there are native french speakers on this thread... well I speak English as a first language but really need to improve my French 

Hello bro, got to know you from Nigeria. Also from there hoping to cone studies in Nantes soonest. Peace

Hi. I am new to Nantes too. I am from Ireland and my boyfriend is French. I don't really know a lot of people in Nantes so I guess I am in the same boat. I would love to meet some new people or anyone in the same  situation. Be nice to have a few pints, if anyone is up for it?

Talking about boat: I suggest you to see the "Belem" which is in Nantes for few days.
It's one of the oldest three-masted boat in Europe.

Hi everyone! My name is Daniëlle. Currently I live in the Netherlands. My boyfriends lives in Nantes and we would love to live together. I often visit Nantes and it would be great to meet some people to start a life of my own there!

Hey there are any of you guys still living in Nantes? My names Jess and I'm Australian, moving to Nantes in a few months with my French partner. I am originally from Melbourne but have been living and working in Alice Springs for the last few months. My french is minimal - and that is even being generous! so am looking to find some other English speaking people to hang out with so I don't go mad! I'm studying to be a teacher so am looking for some English tutoring / teaching jobs for when I arrive - I have found a company called speaking agency - has anybody heard of them? I visited Nantes for a day, 2 years ago so am clueless when it comes to areas to live - any suggestions?? Not sure what else to say, so ask away!

Cheers

Jess

Hi all,

Well, I only just discovdered this blog today. I arrived in Nantes last summer via Portugal (for one year) and the Paris area (since 1998). I'm self-employed, running my own business from home, so hopefully the network from this site can provide some opportunities to meet.

I'm an English native speaker but have been learning and speaking French for over 30 years, so let's say I get by on the language front!

I currently live in the Mellinet district but will be shortly moving to the Chantenay area.

Any suggestions to meet up would be welcome!

Hi Jess

I've been in Nantes since October 2014 (originally from london) and recently started working with Speaking agency. I'm currently only working with one family, where i look after 3 children for a few hours a week, but it's possible to apply for positions with multiple families depending on your schedule and what's available in the area. It's been a nice experience so far and I'd recommend it, especially if you like working with cute french kids Good for getting some money in (not loads, but some money is better than no money!)

Hi and thanks for the reply! Glad to know somebody has some positive experience of the company! Like you said any money is good to begin with! I have applied and been accepted to receive job offers so will just have to wait until work starts becoming available for when I arrive! Are you working with any other companies?

Cheers

Jess

Not at the moment. Although I recently applied with Acadomia who hire tutors in various subjects including languages. The accepted my application so apparently now it's just a matter of waiting for an available role matching my availability. Not holding my breath with that one though, might apply at some local schools 

Hmmm I just applied to them too. Let me know how you go. Once I'm there I think I'll hit the schools as well!

Hi!!! About lessons, to post an add on "leboncoin" could be another way to find some students ! Its the french gumtree, there is  a lot of adds for everything include languages lessons !
Actually I'm interested by taking english lessons but I wanted to do it in a small group but I didn't find anything like that, does someone heard about something ?
