Many people now have relatives, friends or acquaintances living abroad. But it may happen that the connection will be lost - due to moving, changing the phone, changing the last name in marriage, and so on. And if in Russia there are enough opportunities to restore these ties, for example, through mutual friends, then abroad the task becomes much more difficult. But there are ways to find a “lost” acquaintance in various foreign countries, for example, in France.
It is necessary
- - a computer;
- - access to the Internet;
- - the last name and first name of the person you are looking for.
Instructions
Step 1
Start your search from dedicated sites. In France, there is an analogue of the "yellow pages" with addresses and phone numbers of individuals - Pages Blanches ("White Pages"). Go to the website of this organization, located a
Step 2
The site only exists in the French version, so if you do not know this language, please follow the instructions clearly. On the website, you will see three fields to fill out - Prénom (first name), nom (last name) and adresse (address). Enter the first and last name of the person you are looking for in the fields.
Step 3
If you know the address, please provide it. You can enter in this field, for example, only the city or region of residence. Naturally, this information must be recorded in French.
Step 4
Click on the purple Trouver button. After that, the system will give you a list of persons matching the request. But your friend may not be in the list, since the "white pages" contain only the phone numbers of those to whom this number is registered. In this case, try repeating the search by the last name of the husband or wife of the person you are looking for, if you know them.
Step 5
If a search on this site yielded nothing, refer to the forums of compatriots in France. On such sites as the Infrance.ru forum or the MaximEndCo website, you can post your message about the search for a person. Perhaps she herself or one of his Russian-speaking acquaintances visits such resources.
Step 6
Also look for the person of interest on the Facebook social networking site. It is used not only by residents of English-speaking countries, but also by the French. To do this, you will need to register in the system and select the search mode on your page. You can search by name, place of residence, and place of study.
