Can Can Paris
How can an American live in Paris if they dont know the language or have a skill to use?

Ive been to Paris twice and fell in love with the city. I know unemployment there is already high and the cost of living too. I also know that getting a work visa seems to be very very hard. But I dream of living there. I want to experience it all but how?

Your biggest difficulty is going to be getting the carte de sejour (like a green card) because like other countries, they probably don't want people coming over taking jobs.

You could however find a job as a barman or teaching english pretty easily. I think the best bet is to send your resume to different english "schools" and explain that you want to come over. Set up a 2 week time frame to do interviews and the such and come over to visit Paris again to really see if the place is for you. What you want is a CDI (which is like a full time contract without an end date), don't settle for less otherwise renting a flat will be impossible.

Other companies hire english speakers to do telephone work and IT help lines etc. Try the fusac.com (or .fr)for a few examples.

I would say it is important to try to work for a french company and not an English one, as french companies have favorible benefits (more days off, health care etc).

However, the fact that you don't have the carte de sejour doesn't play in your favor. Unless you find a good company that is interested in bringing you over and doing all the paper work.

Just because you have a job doesn't mean you will make a good living (pretty much subtract the US salary by 40% )however but it should be enough to survive,to have a place (you should look for one with a roommate to have a bigger flat and share the rent), to learn french and have a wonderful time in Paris.

It is certainly worth it in my honest opinion but you need to do a fair amount of research and prep before going. Call the nearest French consulate as well to find out information.

PS going as a student is easy option for the visa but you do need some cash spared away.
