Belize: Learning Spanish in Belize:
Hi,
I have the opportunity to work in Belize and one of my priority is to learn Spanish. I know most of people speak English and to speak daily Spanish I should rather go to another officialy spanish speaking country.
But do you think I could speak Spanish in many occasions in Belize in the daily life, considering I won't be just with expats but also with Belizean from the South of the country (Toledo province,Punta Gorda...).
Thank you for the information you could provide me with

Ivory Coast: Moving to Ivory Coast Abidjan, How to find a job before travelling?:
Hi Geraldine,
I can't help you about your question but just to give you information; I have been in Abidjan since beginning of May without any status with an entrepreurial project.
I can tell you that the days are very long when you are not in activity and this is a good lesson for me, never be without any occupation if you are not sure you can realize something. The problem for me is the difficulty to penetrate the economic sector here and also the possible partner I had contact with that does not suit me.
Without any occupation and if you are looking directly for a job here, you may have a decrease in motivation and "un nivellement par le bas" with the environment that is against the expectations any Europeans and French people in particular may have (you have an appointment and there is 1 hours delay, secretary and assistant people are not nice at desk, ...) so it may impact your energy.
Feel free to ask me any question directly or in private and it will be a pleasure for me to discuss with you, in French (je suis français aussi!)
Regards,
seb
