isn't it a bit for a penguin to be out?

A bit late? Well, I was on my way home. The street is gratifyingly empty at that time of night, which is especially good if you have to carry an umbrella. Otherwise it's a longish trail through the back streets to avoid the crowds.

Your blog is quite well-done, and interesting! I'm pleased to know it! That's why I've put it in my blogroll; you have to be read by a lot of people!

Thank you for your message on the blog Broken In Berlin, about Berlin and speaking english!

Well, I'm French; I highly would like to improve my English - and my German / Spanish - but I don't know where to go to work. I had thought that it could great to work in England - not London, but there are already a lot of French people, in addition it is expensive! Working in Berlin makes me full of doubts. To work in the United States, Canada, New Zealand and Australia, I need a Visa and an employeer. Actually, I'm lost!

Don't hesitate to help me!

Hi Emeline,

sorry, I hesitated :) and suddenly! it is Friday.

Is there no working holiday visa-type arrangement between France and one of the countries you mention?

Also, it occurred to me coming to expat blogs for advice about the UK is maybe not the best idea, as we're quite often not up-to-date on what it's like to live there (it's pretty much a foreign country to me), and if we were more enthusiastic about the place we wouldn't be expats ;).

On the other hand a German friend of mine is living and working in Birmingham and is having a great time (at least last time I heard from her); maybe there are some forum sites / blogs by French people living in the UK?
