Hello, this is my first thread I have posted in relation to moving to France (hopefully).
My hubby, children (6 & 3) and myself are hoping to move to france as soon we are able to. We are currentley looking at different regions, property, schools, taxes, employment oppurtunties and its becoming a bit of a mine field!!!!
We really would be grateful of any help from those who have already made the move, as we don't know anyone who has moved to france to question.
Me and my husband dont have a trade, but have worked all our lives, myself as clerical/supervisory for the last 10 years and my husband for the local council, and also a keen writer. when looking for informatin regarding employment, it seems virtually impossible to get a job. Is this really true and do us brits struggle to get employed over in france? Also can we get any help when finding employment?
Also what region to choose?? we want a warmer climate for a better outdoor life, than we have here in the midlands, but also a region with best employment oppurtunities, also schooling for my two children. Any suggestions?? Herault? pyrenes - atlantique? landes?
We have been thinking of moving for a long time ever since our first child was born, and have decided that we are probably best to rent 12 months and explore different areas, before commiting to buying a property. we are currentley learning french as well as my children, as know the importance of this barrier.
Any advice would be much appreciated.
Many Thanks.
Natalie and family
