Looking to move to south of France

Hi,

I am currently in Dublin , and I want to move to France in a few months.
I need advice on best places- I have basic french.
I have worked in finance and hospitality.

Need advice if you can :)

Welcome on Expat-blog Sarahjbrady! :) I have moved the topic on the France forum so that other expat members from France could help you.

You might also read blogs written by expatriates living in France. https://www.expat.com/en/directory/europe/france/

All the best,

Hi,

I live at Marseille. Naturally, for me the best place is my city but I'm not objective else Aix en Provence is very nice.
Don't hesitate to send me mail if you need further informations.

Best Regards,

I'd say go to Aix-en-Provence... it's a smaller town and you can meet a lot of expats there. I lived in Aix en Provence for 3 years and when I moved there at first I didn't speak any French, and by the time I left I was ordering food and swearing in French with complete confidence, thanks to having met fellow expats and friendly locals alike. :)

As for your field, I'm not very sure about the possibilities. I worked in Marseille during my stay there, as there are more job opportunities down there. My advice is to do your research and start sending CVs before you do decide to move.

Cheers and good luck!
