Xavier Lopez Jr. Junior Member Member # 3212	Posted April 30, 2002 04:09 PM I am living in Bordeaux with my wife, who has been and will hopefully continue to be teaching at Bordeaux III, here. Originally, she was going to work while I finished my Master's thesis, but the cost of living i France is more than we were lead to believe, so in the next year I would like to find work. I was wondering if any one new of the best ways to get a working permit for France--its sort of a catch 22, here, where emlpoyers don't want to hire a person without a permit and it seems the only way to get one is to get a job. Also, if anyone knows of any good websites in which to find information for American Citizens, could you please let me know? Thanks in advance. Javier
