Montreux stretches along the Vaud Riviera on the north-eastern shore of Lake Geneva, from Clarens and Territet by the water up to Glion, Caux and Les Avants on the slopes. It is French-speaking, famous for its jazz festival and Belle Époque hotels, and home to international hotel-management schools, so you will hear plenty of English as well. Housing ranges from lakeside blocks of flats to chalets and villas on the hillside, some of them holiday homes. Typical small jobs include cleaning, garden and terrace care, help with moving, furniture assembly and company or errands for older residents – on roads and stairways that are often steep. In Vaud, tenancies customarily end on 1 April, 1 July or 1 October at noon, with the flat handed back clean.
