    Work in France

    Hello,
    I was supposed to try joining the Legion this Autumn but I broke my fist in June and couldn't train for 1½ months. Now, I'm starting training again carefully. I'm a EU citizen, so i could work in France. I was thinking maybe I'd go to France to work, train and learn French language. I've been trying to find info about working in France but can't find anything helpful. Any info about getting a job in France would be appreciated.

    You broke your fist and then could not train. Please get a better excuse. A broken fist do not prevent you from walking, running etc. Well... just my 2 cents.

    And old-ish link, but the situation hasn't exactly improved.

    Legion or bust!

    Well... If you don't speak French, then it's going to be quite hard to get a job in France. Tour guide, bartender... something like that maybe but even for those I imagine a basic understanding of the French language is necessary.

    Stay home until your hand gets better. Maybe you'll find some work there. Although, with only one hand there is not much you can do, except for... nah, I'll behave today, so good luck.
    Life is what you make of it. Always has been, always will be. The challenge in life is to have the right motivation...
