What are some nice places to live in France?

  • I've been studying French and I truly love the language. I plan on travelling to Europe when I feel it's time and I think I would like to live there if I really like it so i ...show more

  • Answer:

    Yes, there is the theory in one hand and the real life in the other. France is not China... I guess you're young and maybe student. So I think it's rather easy to get registered as student in a french university (to be confirmed) and spend enough time to smell how do you feel it. It would not be wasted time. That's true, the foreign students have problem (that's a recent reglementation) to get permanent job after the end of studies. A first approach is to ask any french consulate in USA. You'll get the official voice. As a young, I definitively recommend Paris from there you'll be able to trip everywhere in France or in Europe according your preferences, available time and of course money. Since you seems to have studied french language you should get easily small jobs (like MacDo, café waiter and so on). The main real issue could be to find an apartment or room at a reasonable price. Keep in mind that France is a relatively small (medium) area but with a really great variety of landscapes, local cultures or styles. I'm ever afraid when I hear or read an american expecting a tour of Europe in one (even two) week(s). Imagine I would to do so in USA and ok, I would have a good sight of America... Here, distances are shorter but diversity, density is far greater. Even as a tourist and for a first travel, it is much worthy to spend time (let say a week) in London or Paris or Roma ... but sure not wasting your time in planes, trains, cars and finally see nothing but a few postcards.

Jake is referring to a town called Versailles, about 45 minutes about of Paris by train. It's a really pretty town close to the countryside, and is famous for it's château which was home to royalty, including the famous Marie Antoinette. If you think you might like France, you're probably right. There are many different places to live to suit all personalities. PARIS: The capital is the largest city and good for people who like busy places and don't mind noise/being in smaller spaces. Lyon: Another large city, but nowhere near as busy as Paris. Lyon still has beautiful architecture and sits next to a wonderful river. It's also known as one of the best culinary spots in France. Dijon: A small town, only 2-3 hours out of Paris. Much more suited for the quieter type, though still with plenty to do! There are many shops and great restaurants, wine etc. There is also some amazing old architecture in Dijon which is unique to the area. Marseille: A more modern, large city at the bottom of France. Marseille is by the sea! It has a large port and diverse population. Strasbourg: Near the border of Germany, this city has striking buildings and a really interesting cultural mix of French/German.

You're American? Not likely to happen, but nothing stopping you from visiting France. But forget about just moving there - it doesn't work that way. Read Wise Owl's answer.
