Hi, I am a young American woman (22) looking to move to Martinique, whether for several months or several years! I am interested in coming to this island specifically because I am a French speaker and have a college degree in French Education, and being a native English speaker, I would feel comfortable teaching English as well, or even working in hospitality, childcare, etc.
I have done some research/combed forums and know I will have to acquire a work visa through a French embassy, which is fine by me. I am more looking for advice from other expats or Martinique natives on the atmosphere and livability of the island- things to prepare for, the ideal part of the island to live on for a young person w/ not so much money, safety for women, etc? I have lived abroad in France, but I have never lived in the Caribbean and would like to arrive mentally equipped. Any advice is appreciated!
Thanks,
Rachel
