Q u o t e:
Can't speak french, so i doubt i could survive there either.
There goes my app.

Speaking French is not a requirement, or else it would have been listed. However, being open to learning at least a bit of French is useful, if not only for courtesy when dealing with the local people. ;-) It can seem a bit daunting at first, but rest assured that if you are passionate enough to want to join our team then you will probably be able to pick up enough French to get by.

Q u o t e:
Ancilorn was Norwegian wasn't he? I'd love to know what education he has / had when he applied, and how they approached him. :<

I'm English. :]

Q u o t e:
Thundgot is Norwegian though, and Vaneras is Danish

And I'm from New Zealand, though thanks to my Mum I also have British citizenship.

Q u o t e:
Paris is a horrible location. Birmingham is a far more superior city.

Vaneck, is that you?!

Q u o t e:
Vaneck is from Birmingham?

Vaneck is German, but it's a bit of an in-joke. You can be safe in the knowledge Vaneck giggled when he read that. It's all I'm gonna say. ;-)
