Regions best for progressive, artistic, environmentally aware people? by Finn9

Hello, Can anyone recommend an area or town for people who are interested in contemporary (and historical) art, music, social activism and environmental awareness, specifically sustainable living? My husband and I are considering a long-term plan to ...

Julia

I agree very much with what Foster said. I'd been meaning to respond to your post, but the problem is, really, you can find what you're looking for in just about every region of France. All of the greater metropoles have excellent access to ... Read More

Well we've been trying to find out where I could get these free french classes, but it's not so simple. ):Hi! I'm pretty much on the opposite side of France from you, so no help there, sorry. :) However, depending on the kind of visa ... Read More

Julia

Because you have a son together, doesn't mean you have the right to live in France. You're in a rather awkward situation. Generally, the easiest way would be to get married, so that you could get a visa as the spouse of a French national. ... Read More

Safety in France by Christine

Hi, We would like to talk about a sensitive but important topic: do you feel safe in France? How would you define the level of safety in the country? Can you walk safely during the day and at night without any fear? Do you think there ...

Julia

Yes, it's strange that their behaviour seems to be peculiarly a French thing. My theory is they do what they think they can get away with. I used the word, 'lewd' with prejudice. The definition is: inclined to lust or lechery. Lascivious ... Read More

Julia

Yeah, pepper spray is illegal here, and a good thing for the men, because I think about half of them would end up on their knees, crying their eyes out! It is ridiculous how they feel completely free to harass women, and people always just shrug and ... Read More

Julia

I have to agree with Serif that it very much depends on where you live. I live in a small town in southwestern France, and I've never felt unsafe or had my security threatened. I'm a bit ashamed to admit that there were a couple times after ... Read More

Julia

I'm confused by your post, are you already in an architecture program and looking for one to do after you finish? Or are you looking for one right now to do in France? Because if you're in France on a student visa, I don't see how ... Read More

Hi guys! I am currently fixing my papers to apply for a Schengen tourist visa. My plan is to look for a job within the 90 days duration of the visa. Is this possible? I am really scared that things will fail and I will just go back to where I ...

Julia

Au pair is essentially a term meaning nanny/babysitter. Sometimes it will entail teaching/tutoring kids and/or making meals. It may include room and board or it may not. It depends on the family. No, you cannot extend a 90 day tourist visa. You ... Read More

Yup! Used to have a job that was based in Mimizan, so I was next to the coast quite a bit for a while. Nice area, though I do not at all miss the commute. Right now we're trying to prepare ourselves mentally for the insanity that is Les ... Read More

Ok, I don't know why, but °µÍø½ûÇø won't let me edit my post. Needless to say, I meant we spent 1000€ for the apartment in central Toulouse, NOT 100€. Read More
