C & J

Hi there, You'll find that many Brits who are currently living in the countryside in France have poor ressources in terms of revenue (retirement funds, revenue from selling a home in the UK etc..). For this specific reason, they end up living in the places that the Frenchies have already deserted due to the lack of jobs and prospects. Personnally, I would recommend working in a big town where you can enjoy the night-life/the shops/the restaurants etc... and living in the surrounding areas where properties are gonna be affordable. You can also look into commuting to work as the French railway network is absolutely brilliant (when they are not on strike that is...) Where you should look really depends on the type of job that you are looking for as well as the industry/sector. I have recently found a good job for myself in Paris and it only took me 3 months in total to get through the CV/Interview process. Let me know which type of job and sector you are looking for and I'll give you a few suggestions. Good luck! C&J
