What is the best euro or offshore account with a UK bank

What is the best euro or offshore account with a UK bank?
I work for a company in Luxembourg and get paid in Euros. Until now I have had my salary paid straight into my sterling HSBC account. I think I am losing a lot of money this way as the exchange is probably not the best. My friend has an offshore Lloyds TSB euro account but I have just read reviews on this and so now I am not sure that TSB is the best one to open a euro account with. I spend a lot of time abroad so some money I would like to keep in euros so as not to convert it to sterling and then back again to euro and I would like the account to have a good exchange rate for the money I will transfer to my HSBC account for bills, mortgage etc. Is there one out there for me which does not need a high initial deposit or huge monthly charge?

Study in Europe with Certificate of Secondary Education

Study in Europe with Certificate of Secondary Education?
Hello, I'm from Azerbaijan and finished my school there. So right now I have a Certificate of Secondary Education and I would like to study in Europe. I would prefer to study in Cologne, Germany. But anyplace somehow close to it, like Belgium, Netherlands, Luxembourg or France, would work too. I'm ready to spend 1-2 years just for preparation courses for an university in any above listed places. Does anybody knows, any university that would accept me and give me a visa? Or any other ideas, how I could realize my aim to study in Europe? Thank you very much.

Greetings, In the field of studying in Europe, there is a collection of websites available for students abroad to study there. All educational levels are included (Bachelor, Master, Doctoral...). Since you're after a bachelor I suggest you take a look over here: http://www.bachelorsportal.eu/ Use that portal to find a bachelor in the degree you're after. Be sure not to forget that you're from Azerbaijan and I suggest you use the criteria "To: Western Europe" since that region contains (among others) the Netherlands, Belgium, Luxembourg and France. You could, ofcourse, also see if you're degree is available in Germany as well. You should apply for a scholarship as well. These can be found over here and that portal is also for students who are going to study in Europe only: http://www.scholarshipportal.eu/ Good luck in making your choice!

where are you from? the eu, us, elsewhere? you'll probably want at least €1000 (a little less than $1500 USD) if not more to make sure you won't run out of money (it's happened to me--not fun at all. I came back to the states with €0.09 from €400!) You could try hostels some nights, since they're relatively cheap, but if you have the camping supplies and whatnot and aren't afraid of bad weather then you could definitely make it camping, and it would probably be much cheaper. If you *really* wanted to scrimp and save, you could probably stretch 500 euro to cover food and drink. How many people are going with you? cook your own food and don't eat out a lot. Also, you might buy stuff at the music festival, so plan for that! Good luck and have fun!

Why are native English speakers so bad at spelling their own language

Why are native English speakers so bad at spelling their own language?
Just check this site about British students and all the mistakes they make: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-1042425/Why-ignore-bad-spelling-Lecturer-calls-amnesty-students-20-errors.html?ITO=1490 Americans are even worse. Why does that happen? What do you think about that phenomenon? Here are some comments from non-native English speakers, and I agree with them: Paula, Italy: I am a foreigner, I studied your beautiful, elegant, expressive language as a foreign language, and I don't make spelling mistakes. Most of my friends and colleagues who also studied it as a foreign language don't make any spelling mistakes either. We're not an educated elite, we studied English in very average, ordinary schools, no more than three or four hours a week. How come British "students" cannot manage? Eve, Poland: This idea is ridiculous. Besides, I don't understand how people can make such mistakes in their own language. English is my second language and I wouldn't be caught dead misspelling these words. CC7, Switzerland: I'm not a native English speaker and yet I would write all the words in this list correctly. That's called "learning", and it should also -especially- go for native speakers! Wilma, Netherlands: My Dutch students were extremely surprised when I told them that lots of English people could not distinguish between "there" and 'their" and "it's" and 'its". By the way English is my third language. Raymond, Germany: I am a language trainer in Luxembourg and to give in to the bad spellers is a capitulation which signals how little respect British people have for their own language. German, French and even Polish speakers don't suffer similar problems because they are taught to hold their language in high regard. (...) I tell my international language training participants to ask Scandinavians or Dutch people how to write if I am not there to help. Furthermore, I know one British person at the place I work whose letters are corrected by his French boss because they are full of mistakes. Anthony, Malta: I learnt the English Language at a state school in Malta fifty years ago. Thankfully great emphasis was laid on this most important of languages then and now. Spelling mistakes were anathema. How can people, born and bred in England, be unable to spell words in their own language ? How low can standards in this once Great country get ? I mean really, how did those people get accepted in the university in the first place, if they don't know how to spell? I'm shocked, just like other non-native English speakers, and don't understand how someone can be unable to spell their own language - especially university students. To Vangorn: You're wrong, it's not true that in all other languages one letter always represents one sound. French spelling seems even more irregular than English to me, in Greek you have 5 ways to write the "i" sound, etc. But those people care about their language. And if foreigners can take effort to learn English properly, so should native speakers. To Pinguino: I agree that English spelling is more difficult than Italian, but they also don't seem to care enough. There are some rules in English too, but many people don't follow them. Some of them don't know some really easy things, like apostrophes for example. To Martina: Read it again. I didn't say that Maltese people are native English speakers; quite the opposite. To Bla Bla: I didn't say that all of them are bad spellers, but I have noticed myself that many native English speakers tend to be sloppy when it comes to their language. It seems like they don't consider the language important enough and it may also be because they don't learn foreign languages. Most Europeans I have talked to could speak at least 1 foreign language or even more, and their English was pretty good. On the other hand, many Americans, Canadians, Australians and even British had problems spelling their own language correctly.

I don't know why this is, but it drives me crazy. I attribute the problem to a few main things: People do not READ anymore, so they're not used to seeing things spelled properly. The other problem is there is not enough emphasis on spelling in school. With the advent of the Internet and spell-check, people have become really lazy about it. My kids have teachers who can't spell, and the schools don't even care! I have worked in newspapers for many years. Most of the new college graduates who are taking reporting and copy-editing jobs also cannot spell (and don't know proper grammar or punctuation, either). These are people who were English/Journalism majors in college! The problem is rampant. I see misspellings in national and local advertisements every single day. If those who write and teach English for a living cannot spell, I give up. Sometimes I think I'm the only person left who cares about proper English. It's lonely.
3 :
People can't spell in English because the language makes no sense with letters vs. pronunciation. In almost all other languages, writing a certain letter ALWAYS represents a certain sound. But in English, what sounds go with which letters are so varied and mixed up and there are so many variations that it's hard to keep them all straight, not strait. Consider, for instance: Rough, cough, bough, through all end in "ough" but you say all of them differently. Then all the "c" sounds: Cat, City, Chomp, Eschew. And even words that look the same can be pronounced differently or have different meanings. Buffet to pummel, Buffet a food spread, Bow and arrow, take a bow Live long and prosper, Live at Hollywood Lead on general, Lead poisoning polish the furniture, Polish sausage The soldier decided to desert in the desert before dessert. There are just so many damn (dam?) things that don't make any sense (cents?) in English. It's so hard to stay on track (not the train track, the thought track). See? (C?)
4 :
I remember Wizard Magazine reported the same, years ago :) Even more, they were surprised how foreign readers writing to them were used to use a far more correct English language than English native speakers from home (the US). I think the reason basically is foreign people tend to learn a sort of "official English" (that's what any school or course is supposed to do); an American person lives inside an English speaking society where the daily language is "bastardized", so they get used to talk that way. Foreign students who study English outside of an English speaking country are somehow "protected" by that. As for your reply to Vangom: the difference between a phonetic and a non-phonetic language is in a phonetic language there always are very specific rules about how to spell letters or group or letters; so it's true in a phonetic language you may face the same letter spelled differently or different letters spelt the same way, but all this IS regulated by rules: for instance in Italian "c" sound is English "ch" when followed by "i" or "e" while have English "k" when followed by a, o, u or h; so there "c" sound have the same spell as "q" sound, but there's no way an Italian speaker can spell "c" the wrong way, since we can follow a rule. Now in English, for instance, can you tell me according to which rule the "oo" sound in "room" and "door" are completely different...?
5 :
I truly must agree with Vangom2's and Pinguino's answers here. Apart from the things that had already been said, I've always been wondering for what reason "ea", like in "steal" and "ee", like in "weep" sound the same. In my opinion, only the pair of two "e" letters should be regarder as the long "ee" sound and "ea" should be regarded the same way it is in the "wear" word. Moreover, the varieties of reading "a" is also surprising. Compare, for instance: 1. Bar. 2. Cat. 3. Wander. It's hard to show the difference here, in writing, but everyone who knows English knows what I'm talking about. And as to the "writing" word - could someone explain to me how come the "t" letter isn't doubled, when (according to the rule) the "e" letter is crossed out when adding "-ing" and "i", as a vowel is positionized between two consonants, because personally I don't get it? Lat but not least: Why "every day" is written separately, when "everyone" and "everybody" is written being compound? This is also the thing that makes me wonder P.S. I'm native Polish

Whilst I often read and highly respect your answers, I have to say that this question is a bit of a sweeping generalisation to say that all native English speakers are bad in spelling At least in my generation (30's) at University you most definitely had to be able to spell, and this was even having to submit reports on the PC Naturally with the advent of computerised documents, it is almost second nature to rely on spell-checks and grammar checks (which of course are not 100 percent fool-proof). However from my peer group at least 95 percent consistently write English correctly including "their" "there's"!! P.S. - The Daily Mail is a tabloid paper and wonderful at sensationalising information and putting things into a different context. It has been found guilty of liable more times than I can count and also have more editors than I have had hot dinners. Therefore personally I do not consider it a very reliable source of accurate info

How does Schengen Visa work

How does Schengen Visa work?
We are (me with my family) are planning to visit Germany with Schengen Visa and are planning to visit nearby countries like, Netherlands Belgium Luxembourg Back to Germany France During this trip, we will also visit Switzerland and we are making arrangements for Swiss Visa also. As a concluding part we will reach UK and will return back. Except for UK, we will travel to most of the other places with Rented car hired in Frankfurt. (We are Indians, living in the UAE - Abu Dhabi). My questions are, What will be the formalities when we cross borders with in Schengen countries? Do we need any documents to show / provide to the border? Will there be stamping on passport at every border?

free to pass with out passport except Switzerland which does not belong to the Schengen Luxembourg agreement. your only will get a stamp when you arrive in Europe at the airport. The boarders are all open just like in the States.
2 :
When travelling in the Schengen zone you will not encounter any borders unless there are exceptional circumstances where they are temporarily re-instated. I say this because Germany did this for the 2006 FIFA World Cup, and in June the European Cup takes place in Austrian & Switzerland this year so this may happen again (although as you are not travelling to Austria it should not impact you) When crossing the borders in/out of the Schengen zone (to the UK and Switzerland) then you will need to show your passport & visas, and indeed it may be stamped - this is at the discretion of the passport control person (I have been stamped entering the Netherlands at Schiphol airport even though I live here!) Enjoy your trip
3 :
There will be no formalities at the borders between Schengen countries. Visa-wise the whole Schengen area is like one country. Passing the border between say, France and Germany will be like passing the border between Rajasthan and Kerala in India. Note that if you visit Switzerland as you planned you'll need multiple-entry Schengen visa. Multiple entry Schengen visa is more difficult to get. I would personally think twice about going to Switzerland for this reason. Have you considered to visit first or last just after or before you go to the UK? If you went to Switzerland last, returned your car there and flew from Switzerland to the UK you would save yourself some visa trouble. You could also fly to Switzerland from the UK, travel around Switzerland by train and then pick your car up in Frankfurt.

Could someone please review my spanish work

Could someone please review my spanish work?
I have written a paragraph about my favorite vacation for my high school spanish class, and would really appreciate it if some spanish speakers could help me with my translation. Here is what I have written in English: My favorite vacation was when I traveled to Europe during the summer of 2008 with my parents. We went to Germany, Luxembourg, and Croatia. First, we arrived in Frankfurt and drove to Bielstein, Germany. We slept in a very nice hotel in a very small town that was on the Mosel River. We ate lots of delicious food and saw many castles. After that, we went to Luxembourg were we spent a little time going to museums. Then we visited my relatives in Croatia. I have many friends and family in Croatia and it was very nice to see them all. I met my friend Nikolina, a girl that I had been writing to for many years but had never seen before. We went to a lot of museums where we saw traditional Croatian art and clothing. One day, we rode a bus to Roman ruins in another Croatian town. It was a very hot day, but I had a lot of fun learning about Roman history. I ate the most memorable meal in my life, met some of the nicest people, and learned a lot about myself and my family. This is how I translated it: Mi vacación favorita fue cuando viaje a Europa durante el verano de 2008 con mis padres. Fuimos a Alemania, Luxemburgo, y Croacia. Primero, llegamos a Frankfurt y se Bielschtien a Alemania. Dormimos en un hotel muy agradable en una ciudad muy pequeña que estaba en el rio Mosel. Comimos mucha comida sabrosa, y vi muchos castillos. Después de eso, fuimos a Luxemburgo se nos pasó un poco di tiempo va a los museos. Luego visitamos a mis parientes en Croacia. Tengo muchos amigos y familia en Croacia y fue muy agradable ver a todos. Conocí a mi amigo Nikolina, una chica que había estado escribiendo para muchos años pero nunca había visto antes. Fuimos a muchos museos donde vimos el arte tradicional de Croacia y de la ropa. Un día, tomamos un autobús a las ruinas romanas en otra ciudad croata. Fue un día muy caluroso, pero he tenido un montón de divertido aprender sobre la historia de Roman. Me comí la comida más memorable en mi vida, conocí a algunos de las mejores personas, y aprendí mucho sobre mí y mi familia. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated! Gracias!

I'd like to add a few details to what has already correctly been answered: to 3 and 4: No, not because he spent so much money on his castles, but because he allegedly committed suicide. This, in his days and in the Catholic religion, would have been an unforgiveable sin, unless, well: You were declared mad, because a madman -- due to his naiveté of mind -- can't commit any sin. So declaring him mad was, in those days, the only way to restore his reputation after he had drowned himself in the lake. to 5: There is no typical "Volkswagen" (people's car). Some drive Mercedes Benz, some Audi (which many people like). I used to drive Fords, but now have a Toyota. My next one will probably also be Japanese. I had a VW van once, but only for transportation and vacation purposes. Although "Volkswagen" translates as "people's car", it is no longer a real people's car manufacturer, and other brands have proven as reliable and sometimes cheaper. to 6: Soft drinks should be the right answer. Many people come there with kids, and they get thirsty and the parents don't want to get drunk in the presence of their kids, but they all get thirsty on their walk. So soft drinks actually sell better than beer, except in the beer tents, where main business time is in the evening, when the kids are at home with their grandparents or a nanny. to 7: There is no "German" food speciality, but many regional ones. I'm from Bavaria (the Oktoberfest State), and to me it's Hirschbraten mit Spätzle (wild deer with home-made Suebian noodles) and Leberkäs (spiced meat loaf with all ingredients except liver, as the name would imply, available fresh at any Bavarian butcher's store every morning). to 8.: kindergarten, rucksack, waldsterben -- well, I expected you to use "klimawandel" for "climate change" as well. I'm not sure if you already use "handy" for "mobile phone". Maybe you should. Whenever you hear a German talk about a "Handy" (in the correct English pronounciation), he means his cellphone. This pseudo-English word is a genuine German invention. Oh, and could you do me a favor? You're learning German. So whenever you're tempted to use something like "Ubermensch" (Nietzsche) or "Uber-Ich" (Freud), give it the dots: Über and über. I think even the "Fuhrer" has deserved them...

Even the UN can see Americans are the most productive workers

Even the UN can see Americans are the most productive workers?
To the rest of the world, feel free to shut up now, thanks in advance. The average U.S. worker produces $63,885 of wealth per year, more than their counterparts in all other countries, the International Labor Organization said in its report. Ireland comes in second at $55,986, followed by Luxembourg at $55,641, Belgium at $55,235 and France at $54,609. The productivity figure is found by dividing the country's gross domestic product by the number of people employed. The U.N. report is based on 2006 figures for many countries, or the most recent available. Only part of the U.S. productivity growth, which has outpaced that of many other developed economies, can be explained by the longer hours Americans are putting in, the ILO said. The U.S., according to the report, also beats all 27 nations in the European Union, Japan and Switzerland in the amount of wealth created per hour of work -- a second key measure of productivity.

Per hour work we were beat by Norway.

Great to know that even with all our great productivity we cant collectively get the country advanced, only the top is seeming to advance while everyone's workload is increasing

Great! The worker productivity, as you might know, is measured by the value added per worker. This figure shows the US still sells high priced goods and services. I'm not sure what you mean by "even the UN can see". I suppose you're saying they usually produce faulty reports which are biased against the US.

koreans are more motivated to work than thei U.S. counterparts

koreans are more motivated to work than thei U.S. counterparts?
It is revealed that Korean workers face worse wage payment with highly-intensive and longest working hours. They work the longest hours among OECD member countries, but their annual wage barely tops 60% of the average of OECD countries. According to ¡®2008 Economic Outlook¡¯ of OECD which is made public on July 20th, Korean workers (limited to businesses with more than five employees) annually worked 2,261 hours in the year of 2007. Korea marked the longest working hours out of 22 OECD countries surveyed. Annual working hours of Korean workers tend to decrease from 2,453 in 1994, 2,378 in 2003, 2,294 in 2006, etc. However, Korea is still the only country that works more than 2,000 hours per year out of all OECD member countries. When compared to other OECD countries, this level of working hours is more than that of other countries by 200 hours at least and 900 hours at maximum. Poland (1,953 hours), Slovakia (1,947 hours), Czech (1,914 hours), Iceland (1,822 hours), and Japan (1,808 hours) were classified in the group of highly-intensive working countries after Korea. Annual average aggregate wage (of full-time workers for one-year period) for Korean workers was 25,379 US dollar in 2006, that is, 64% of the average of OECD member countries¡¯ 39,743 US dollar. Switzerland is the only country that tops the threshold of 60,000 US dollar with 60,384 US dollar. Luxembourg (59,638 US dollar), Norway (56,629 US dollar), Denmark (56,598 US dollar), and Ireland (55,985 US dollar) were among the group of more than 50,000 US dollar. However, Spain (27,735 US dollar) and Greece (25,934 US dollar) failed in reaching the threshold of 30,000 US dollar and workers of Portugal (18,455 US dollar), Hungary (12,097 US dollar), Czech (11,292 US dollar), Poland (10,121 US dollar), and Slovakia (8,675 US dollar) earned less than Korean workers. Korean workers¡¯ PPP (purchasing power parity)-based annual aggregate wage, which reflects the level of commodity prices of each country, marked 32,472 US dollar, that is, 85% of the average of the OECD member countries. i mean, does that mean that koreans are more motivated to work just because they have longer work hours compared to U.S.? i need to contradict this for a school report

The Koreans are more motivated to work because the competition between the employees are greater. Unlike the U.S., there are fewer opportunities and jobs, and thus from the K-12 education, and beyond, competition is "Ivy-Level status." They are not more motivated to work because they have longer work hours, but because the socioculutral aspects make it so.

I'm 29, and I'm in a long distance relationship with a guy in Luxembourg for 3 years now. He said he loves me

I'm 29, and I'm in a long distance relationship with a guy in Luxembourg for 3 years now. He said he loves me.
I met this guy in Paris. He is from Italy. Then I went to China for work. He has visited me twice in Paris and twice in the Far East. That's a total of three years long distance relationship. We both spent a lot of money in internaional phone calls, sms. We chat almost everyday on yahoo. I have been trying to get employment in his area Luxembourg, but it's not one of the easiest places to find work as a teacher. But inspite of how much he "loves" me, he is not willing or ready to marry me, since he said it's against his principles. But I don't see it that way. We love each other and this distance is causing us a great deal of pain. Besides, he said I'm one woman he truly enjoys conversations and exchange of ideas, even outside of the relationship. Now I'm working on getting an employment contract in Spain, it's nearer to Luxembourg than China just to stay nearer to him. I'm now very close, it will take less than a year. But he says he wants to stop this relationship. But just this year in January our relationship underwent one of the biggest trials. He left me for a girl from Lithuania. I set him free. What good is it staying with a man who does not want you anymore? Then two months later he came back to me, saying that he went wrong. I was scared to take him back for fear he might dump me again. He promised to never leave me. So I took him back. He visited me in Beijing in July of this year and we spent 3 weeks together. Right now, he is telling me how much he loves me and that I'm now an important part of his life. Yesterday he said he wants to move on since our relationship is "impossible". But he wants to keep me as a friend. I love him so much, I'm willing to move around the world for him. But seeing him with another woman would only break my heart to pieces. Afterall he broke his promise never to leave me again. To all more 26+ individuals out there, please tell me what would you do if you were in my shoes

5 :
He has been dishonest with you. You can't change a dishonest person. Don't put all of your stock into a relationship that is on shaky ground. Move on and find someone that will be able to commit to you. Why waste any more of your young years on him? I stayed with a man for twelve years that would not commit. He kept saying that it would happen eventually. It didn't, and by the time I left him, I realized that I was 12 years older with less to offer, and fewer opportunities to choose from. Don't waste your life too. You deserve better.
6 :
I'd forget about him, and move on with my life here. You really don't get to know a person until you've lived with them for quite some time, and a few weeks here and there + phone calls is NOT truly living with and learning about someone. I know this isnt what you want to hear, but you're his "fantasy" girl - he can be whoever he wants to be, or who you want him to be while hes talking to you. It's not really him. Thats why he doesn't want things moving forward at all. He knows the fantasy would be over, and he's not interested in reality. He uses you to escape from it now. It sounds like a facade, even though he probably does care for you. Thats why he doesnt want you moving to where he is - he'd have to let down the facade and disappoint you, or disappoint himself, and lose the fantasy of it all. You give him attention in the ways he needs it to feel good about himself, and its safe that way, because you're miles and miles away. He can carry on with business as usual at home, and no matter what he's done that day, he can talk to you at night and feel like a good man who is desired and loved unconditionally. You deserve more than that. You don't have to build up a man that far away - especially one who claims to care for you that much. If he really cared that much, he would have moved near you by now, or jumped at the chance for you to move near him. He's dragging his feet because he doesn't want the party to be over. Its going to hurt, but lose him.
7 :
I would move on. It sounds like he prefers the distance because it allows him to do things with other people. Don't rearrange your life for him, because he is not willing to do it for you. If you move this relationship seems like it will end, he doesn't want anything serious from you.
8 :
The thing about long distance relationships is that they select for the commitment-phobes... It's so easy to say "I love you" when the consequences of saying it are near-meaningless. And, as far as I've ever seen, anti-marriage "principles" go right out the window when a guy is really in love. When he's in love, he'll be ready to marry you. That's how you tell that this one isn't on the right track. Not to say that you shouldn't go to Spain. But find a nice young Spanish man to love. Nearby. ... Love is a lot about proximity and familiarity. It's not romantic to say that, but it is. Good luck!

Worry less about dollars and more about how it compares to cost of living in your area. If this is a standard entry level pay for your area (it would be for most of the midwest) then you should be fine with it. I suspect it would be lower than average for a job in San Fran or New York though, so keep looking if that is the case. As for the kid in Luxembourg working at McD's, let him worry about his own cost of living and his dead end job with no opportunities.

Go back to college, join a union or start your own business. The later is what I did after many years as a mechanic, which by the way started at 37k per yr and when I quit I was at 93k per yr. Something is wrong when a college grad can't make at least starting trade wages. Anyway I started my own business about 5 years ago I make a little more than I did 124k approx a lot more headache and time involved but it is mine and nobody tells me what to do. So go for it do something you like.

Starting pay for a freshly graduated accountant with the federal government is $35,752 minimum going to $52,912 in two years. You will beat the Luxemburger a lot faster if you look for a better offer.

In accounting the entry level jobs pay squat. Always have, always will. Does this job offer you training/experience in the areas you want to specialize in? To be a CPA/CMA you have to be in public, work 80 hours a week and put in your time. No way around it. Just consider the next couple years a continuing part of your college. But instead of your paying out of pocket, you get a check.Then after 2-3 years you can start getting better gigs and better money. Well, if the economy isn't so shot that none of us can get better jobs. $28k for no experience isn't bad. Trust me. If you smartly follow a plan, you will do great with an accounting degree eventually. And consider yourself lucky, many of your fellow grads probably haven't found anything yet.

English is a second language in Europe. Do take the effort to learn some basic phrases. In Luxembourg, they speak Luxembourgian and they speak French in France, take note that English is not really a true language, it belongs to the Germanic group of languages (Dutch, Afrikaans). It uses words of other languages to make up the vocabulary.
3 :
In Luxembourg almost everybody will speak some English and most will speak good English. In France the percentage of people speaking English is not as big, but still many people speak good English. If you are polite, ask if you may speak English (in French if you know how, otherwise in English,) and start every conversation with Bonjour, the French will be very helpful So no worries about getting lost.

Luxembourgish at home and with friends. The primary schooling used to be all done in German, as it is the language closest to the native language and it was easier for the kids to understand it. Secondary schooling used to be done more in French, while University used to be all in French, (often abroad, in Belgium.) In recent years the national language has gotten a more legal status and has gotten a much better position in teaching in school. I do not know in what percentage yet. You will find that near the German border most people will switch to German easily, in the south French is more the common language with people who do not speak the national language.

They have a GDP like 80.000 dollars. And they are the richest ppl in the world. (Qatar could have surpassed them recently, thanx to petrol) So seems like even if u work as a janitor they are gonna pay a lot. That's the best I can offer about them. Never been there. But I don't really think they are waiting for foreigners to share their wealth with open arms. U'll probably get paid less since u are a foreigner. Better a Luxembourgese explain the details to you, tho i doubt any exists in here :D

I'm in college, planning to become a pharmacist. How do I become licensed in Europe once I finish?
I live in california, and would like to continue schooling here, but afterward would love to become licensed to work in Europe. I want to live in Switzerland or Luxembourg and work as a Pharmacist. How does that work as far as licensing or whatever else may be necessary? Thanks!

Well, besides the license, you need to know the language. Speaking off the top of my head, if your in the USA, then it is not that much trouble to get licensed in Canada, and that automatically makes it easy to get licensed in NZ, England, ect. BUT, getting licensed and maintaining it might be expensive, last I checked it cost about 700 dollars a year for a Canadian license. The thing to do would be to check the facts with a pharmacy school in one of the countries of interest. If you were an American living in Germany, then oftentimes the US Army is looking for civilian pharmacists there, that way you do not even have to have an additional language requirement. But being there would be ideal in getting the language skills needed for the job mobility your after. Consider also the Indian Health Service, much of the American Tribal Community lives in abject poverty, SD, ND, Montana especially, they really could use good pharmacists out there. see USAJOBS for those opportunities, they pop up from time to time.

Just follow your hearth. Nobody can predict how the world will look like in 10 years. If you think you will make a good career US is the best option. You have to take in account too the language barrier in the beginning. All the countrys you mentioned are Dutch, french or German speaking. Switzerland is even not a member of European Union, so the rule of the membership is not valid there. Europe is more social and the cultural Facilities are wider. The pesion is much higher in europe (but who knows what it will be in 10 years...) comparing a Belgian/french company with a US-company based in belgium: a european company is more hierarchical structured. I know nobody who went live and work in Luxembourg because of tax reasons because the money you saved that way, you will have to spend on living.

I can't speak for Istanbul, so I won't say either is a better option (especially since I have heard that Istanbul is a really neat city), but I've been to Luxembourg and I absolutely loved it. The city has caves under it that you can tour and wander around in (took about 2 hours to get through when I went there) and the architecture is just beautiful. There is also a lot of good shopping, if that is something you care about, and the mix of French and German culture is really fun, as well, and makes for great food selection. It's also hard to beat the location because the country is so small. It's just a quick trip to France, Belgium, Germany, the Netherlands, and Switzerland. Austria, Denmark, and Italy aren't too far either. Plenty of options for weekend trips should you get the chance. Either way you choose, you'll get to experience fantastic cultures, lots of history, good food, and beautiful surroundings. I honestly don't think you can go wrong, no matter which city you decide on.

Many French people do not speak English and do not like Americans. It is very expensive to live there as well. But, I'm very fond of the French city of Nancy, the gates are a sight as is the architecture. Public transportation is excellent. But, I think you might find the commute time, even by train, from Nancy to Luxembourg a little tiring after awhile. Belgium is a very liberal country, but is nicer to visit than to live there. Since I've never lived in Luxembourg, I've only visited, I cannot speak to residing there. Germany is a wonderful country to live in, most people speak English and will help you in your attempts to speak German. My favorite city in that area is Trier where you can see the old ruins from the Roman era. I prefer the quaintness over the larger city of Saarbrucken, but do like its suburb of Neunkirchen. It would be a reasonable commute to L City and I think the freeway direct route is complete now. If I had a choice, Trier would provide a nice, enriching, educational experience for your children, would provide interest (shopping, cathedrals, arts) for your wife and a close enough distance to where you will work. What an exciting opportunity for you and your family!
3 :
You should be able to find something nice and reasonable in Luxembourg city. The city has everything you need, so it would be good to stay close. If you enjoy more privacy and the country-side, then you might want to live in one of the small villages that surround the city. Every small village is the same. You are lucky because you'll be so close to nice major cities like Paris, Metz, Brussels, Amsterdam, and Frankfurt. Good luck to you!

Live in Luxembourg. It will be far more convenient for you as far as your job is concerned, for your wife, and for your children. Live as near to the city centre of Luxembourg as possible. Since the country is small anyway, this shouldn't be a problem. Personally, I am very fond of the areas just east of the city (Strassen, Belair, etc), which are no more than 15-20 minutes from the centre, but still far enough to have that suburban rather than city feel. Furthermore, living in the city will allow greater flexibility for the education of your children... Outside of Luxembourg, the nearest English-language schools are 1-2 hours away. Within Luxembourg, however, you will find not one, but THREE English-language schools, all within 20 minutes driving time from each other. The schools are: The International School of Luxembourg, or ISL (which was my alma mater); The European School (mostly reserved for dependents of EU diplomats), and St. Georges (a British-style school that goes up to 7th grade). If you can afford the tuition, I would highly recommend sending your children to ISL. I say this not only because I attended the institution myself for five years, but also because it is the only of the three schools that has adopted an American-style education system. This will help your children tremendously when (if?) they move back to the United States after having lived in Luxembourg. The teachers of the school are all very competent, and class sizes are small to allow for much student-teacher interaction. One last tip: encourage your wife to join the American Women's Club of Luxembourg. They are an absolute wealth of resource, and do wonders when it comes to acclimating ex-pats to Luxembourgish life. They publish an annual publication called "Living in Luxembourg" that has advice and tips for moving, and helpful lists of everything from American-trained medical physicians to English-language bookstores. If you choose to move to Luxembourg... Enjoy it! I miss that little country more than words can describe. I'm currently studying in the U.S., but intend to return to Luxembourg - or, at the very least, Europe - after my university studies are done.

yes, i spent 3 years in Germany .English is a second language in school but you will find that the older Germans won't speak much English unless you speak to them first. The Kid's to late 30's speak it very well and prefer to use it. But learn some German, it really isn't that hard and you will enjoy your time there more.

3 :
They most likely do,if they don't speak louder.
4 :
It depends. Generally you can expect educated Europeans to be able to speak English to some degree, they all learn it in school. The younger generation quite often speak it very well, with the slightly older people it depends. At any rate, you'll get around, and won't have to starve. If you do make an effort to pick up a few words of the local vernacular, it will be seen as a nice gesture and be appreciated.
5 :
Anyone who has received a high school education - which is a vast majority of the population in Luxembourg - will be able to comprehend and speak (albeit perhaps hesitantly) English. The elderly are often less likely to be able to speak English, but chances are you will be able to find a younger local to aid in translating when such situations arise. There is also a very large international community in Luxembourg, so finding respective English-speaking social groups for you, your wife, and your children should not be a problem. Note that almost a third of the population is NON-Luxembourgish; this, of course, mostly due to the abundance of EU institutions and banking systems in the country. Because of this, you will not only (a) find many English-speaking foreigners in Luxembourg, but also (b) note that Luxembourgers have become acustomed to speaking English, exactly because of the high concentrations of foreigners in their country. Having said that, however... Expect to learn a few phrases in French or Luxembourgish (or even German, although it is the least preferred language of Luxembourg's three official ones). Basic phrases to use in every day life - while taking public transport or buying groceries, for instance - will be sufficient. You'll most likely end up learning French just because of geographics (there's nothing like total immersion to kick the language-acquisition area of the brain into gear), but it is very possible to lead a comfortable and fulfilling live in Luxembourg getting by just with English.

Maybe the best college major would be in media and journalism, since they have RTL TV production company and the press which includes English. I suppose you know they speak French and German there (and their own, Luxembourgish) and a knowledge of them would be a great advantage. Other than that, I think you might try a hotel management career, or anything in the finance sector, as they surely have international banks.

Unless you have a firm job offer from for instance a transnational company which wants to hire you as an expat, it is extremely difficult to get work in the E.U. for people who are not citizens of one of the member states. As the previous answerer stated the consular section of the Lux. embassy will be able to inform you completely. But forget coming in on a tourist visa, start washing dishes and try to get a permanent residence. This does no longer work. The immigration police are strictly combing out all workplaces and the illegals are immediately repatriated whilst the employers who gave them work are fined heavily. All the best.

You'll have to download the maps for Luxembourg before you go, but I would call the company your GPS is from and find out if it'll work even with the downloaded maps.

Normally when you buy a GPS, you buy maps for only one country or continent. You will need to check with your GPS maker to see what maps you have installed on your GPS. You can always buy maps for Europe but you can typically buy a European GPS cheaper than buying the maps themselves. I would check with your rental company about renting one there also. Good luck.

Probably not. Your best bet would be to rent a GPS with your car, it will be cheaper then the upgrade or buying a European model.
