nathan - bordeaux by gnaythun
hello, i am an 37 yr old from fremantle, just moved to bordeaux with small family just wondering if you could tell me if there were any pubs or aussie meetups in the area (or good bookshops)? any help would be greatly appreciated, regards, nathan

considering moving to bordeaux or near bordeaux area by frankie.christo
Hi all, i am new to this forum but would appreciate any advice about moving to France. I am a qualified nursery nurse and speak only english and my husband is a carpenter who has very little english. We have 3 children aged 6,5 and 11 months old. ...

Learning to Speak French by tabby908
I will be moving to Paris in the next year, along with many things to get ready for, the number 1 thing I am focusing on is learning French. I took French in high (10 years ago) I have taken 1 refresher course in college and have visited a few ...

I would image the more you spoke French before you arrived the smoother the transition would be. Keeping in mind if you had a good grasp of the lingo the easier it would be to set yourself looking for a job, apartment, etc. Once you arrived and if ... Read More
