dated a girl from France that was in the United States for a year as an au pair. And long story short we have decided to stay together even though she had to leave the county So now we are looking for places to go to be together. She found a job for us in Italy as an au pair couple but Italy will only allow americans to work 3 months as an au pair but we were looking to go somewhere for atleast 6 months to a year. Any ideas of different countries or other visas? Any help would be amazing because i am having an incredibly difficult time finding more options

Thats an awesome idea but i have to be honest about how i wouldn't feel very comfortable living there due to the crime, drugs, etc...

I have not specificlly heard about this for Ecuador. What are your sources?

Schengen coutries, of which Italy is one, will only allow US citizens in as tourists for 90 days out of 180. That does NOT include permission to work, as an au pair or anything else. If you want to work and/or stay longer, you need to apply for the proper visa. That's true for most countries - if you want to work, legally, you need the proper visa.

Of course, if you marry her, she can apply for permanent residency status and you can both live legally in the US...

I think shoyt is now looking outside of europe for possibilities.
