Hi there, particularly Brits living in Czech Republic.

My wife and I (half Czech but non-speaker) are moving to Brno, just going through Visa process. Already have a trade licence to teach English (I qualified in CR).

Brno feels more manageable than Praha to us, and we have Czech friends there.

We are just wrestling with all the hoops to jump through and its a bit overwhelming. You need a lot of resources to cope with understnading the system, even with help on the Czech side! Healthcare, renting, tax etc

We've been to Brno countless times so pretty happy we'll find our way round, and I have work lined up.

But I can't help thinking I'm slightly bonkers to do this! But I rather love the place and the people!..even the language is wacky but impenetrable!

Any helpful comments welcome from those with more experience!!
