Hi, I am Irish/Canadian. I am currently living in Cork, Ireland but my partner and I are moving to Montpelier in a few months. He is french. I am looking for work over there but don't know where to start as my french is basic. I am looking to find an english/irish bar or call centre for english speakers or even work as a nanny. If anyone has any info please pass it my way. I will greatly appreciate it. I hope to make friends soon. Gingersnap

thanks for your help. I will be over on holidays in 4 weeks so I will check everything out and try to get a job asap!! I guessed there would be a lot of english store etc there. I am really hoping to get into an english retirement home if there is one as I am a carer but for the first few months i am happy to work in a pub and make a lot of friends and get a great feel for the south. I am so excited about the move!!
