Hi Rebekah, Thanks for writing! I understand about the job situation completely. I'd look into contacting the US Consulate in Rennes, they may have more information on business in Brittany: http://rennes.usconsulate.gov/ usarennes@state.gov You could also try AmCham France, and the CCI of Lorient (Morbihan). Good luck! Michael

Hello and Bonjour Michael! I am an American living in Brittany with my husband who is French. He works in the French Navy stationed in Lorient. I was also an English language assistant during the 2009-2010 school year. I am trying to look for a job and am having a very hard time b/c of the area we live in. It seems like there is absolutely nothing here but a few cafés. Plus the Bretons are kind of a tough crowd. I do speak French and have a BA. If you have any advice I would greatly appreciate it! Thank you also for the time you put into your blog!

Rebekah

I flew out of CDG yesterday and wondered why it took us almost 2 hours to get through everything! One of my friends told me it was due to the strikes. I said, Ah. The French love a good strike!

Hopefully it will improve soon. Bon voyage a vous aussi.
