Hi, I'm 24 and a recently qualified teacher moving to the area in a matter of weeks. My grandparents used to live in Bruniquelle and it's always felt more like home than the UK. I'm very excited and would really appreciate any advice on moving here and finding work.

I thought there may be English-speaking families looking for a tutor/nanny. I trained in primary teaching and have over a year's experience tutoring and nannying in Surrey. Please do get in touch if I can help in this respect.

I would like to work as an artist/illustrator and I would value any advice on this (how to survive financially/networking/finding space especially).

My website has some more info about me and I can provide a CV and references on request. I'm open minded about all kinds of opportunities so feel free to message me/email me/ring me about anything. I studied BSc Environmental Science at the University of Plymouth and completed a PGCE at the University of Southampton.

Please do get in touch about anything work-related or just to network!

Hello !
I'm Victoria, from Liverpool. I've lived in france for 12 years. I left England 25 years ago travel the world, never imagining I would end up just next door in France !
My husband is French and I have three children, 7,4 and 2 who all refuse to speak English!
I run a grocery shop and café in Clermont L'Hérault selling British food and serving coffee, pots of tea and cakes.
I would love to meet anyone in the area and hear about what, if any, foods they would like me to stock, so if you're in the area please pop in and say hello.
You can see where I am and when I'm open on my website
