Need some info
Posted: Mon February 13, 2012 03:04 AM UTC
Dear All,

My supervisor will go for a training in Paris for an oil company, started from Nov 25th to April 16th.
He's an Indonesian and will go there for the first time, and alone.
Is there somehow any Indonesian community in Paris nearby?
Would he needs to use the local SIM card, or just use his indonesian number there?

Thank you for your support.

Welcome to VT, this is a pretty specific request. There is an expat website that has some contacts showing Indonesians living in Paris. The VT Paris experts will soon be waking, maybe they will have some better info.

oh yes he can use the Indonesian number here, but depends on the pricing he gets might be good to use a SIM card. We go over to Orange, the best for expats is by Madeleine just behind the metro.

do spend a lot, and dont spend too much.
Paris is an international city, plenty of help all around you. I once worked in city and helped people find the same street four times in the same week!!!

just common sense, know where you have your belongings. He will do ok. if not offered before he can try eat here

and you can find plenty of expats including Indonesian here, see their schedule
