Dear Bloggers:

I am beginning the process of getting a Visa and passport. What was your experience with the overall process (consulate, government workers in U.S. and/or France, effort required, etc.)? I intend to apply for a long-stay visa. Are visas often denied?

Regards,

Hi Jo Ann,

I am planning to move there permanently but I am not sure what I want to do, exactly, beyond getting a stable job. I will be graduating from college soon and I have always wanted to live abroad. Based on what I know about France, I think it will be a good idea.

After college I will have a degree in anthropology and sociology and would prefer to work in my field(s)but, I am not sure if my credentials will be accepted in another country.

To both: Thanks for responding.
