Hi Bev - I'm moving out to Paphos in the next couple of months on my own. Can you tell me if you sorted out your accommodation once you got out there or did you book it from your home country?

I'm thinking of booking a holiday then sorting out a rental once I'm there. I don't have a job to go to but am hoping to get something .

Hope you don't mind my questions but it'll be interesting to know how you have got on.

Thanks
Jilly

Hi Bev

Thank you for your reply. I'm really looking at a house/flat share but preferably not in the party scene. Around Paphos would be good. I'd really appreciate the lady's details regarding the villas but not sure how to PM you, I'm new here!

My background is in accounts and admin but I think I'd probably find it hard to get a job there as I do not speak Greek so I'm willing to work in a restaurant/bar or nanny if necessary.

Sorry to hear that you're not going to Australia, I too was going to emigrate there but didn't pass the skills test and now I feel like a true Oz Reject, lol.

Thank you for your help. This is the first time I've posted on this forum and am glad of any advice.

Jilly it sounds to me as though the sort of work you would be looking for is not well paid work so your best bet is share a flat with someone as you would be unlikely to be able afford anything by yourself.
You may find work that includes accomodation if you contact some of the hotels about jobs as a waitress etc.
I would recommend that you come out for a few weeks initially but have some funds in reserve i ncase you do not find work so that you can afford your air fare home.
It isnt easy to find work at this time as the tourist industry has been hit hard by the lack of British holiday makers because of the weakness of Sterling.
