Retire to the UK, any thoughts? by grammymissy
My husband and I would like to retire to the UK in 3 years, from the US, any thoughts? Our only child, a daughter lives there with our son in law and 3 grandchildren. We have looked at VISA applications, and do not see what we would think we need, ...

lonely in England by Canadian in England
I have been in England for 2 months and finding it hard to fit it. It is very diff fro Canada and finding it hard to find a friend, esp one how can relate to me. I just wanted to know if I am the only one. I find it hard to understand the English ...

moving to Paris- excited but nervous by madimoo022
Hello! I am coming to Paris in September and am very excited! I have been there once before while i was studying abroad, but have never been or lived there as a non-student. I just recently graduated from college and want to spend about a year in ...
Oh I just spent 2 months in Paris - the best place to get an apartment is lodgis.com - they specialize in short term and long term rentals and are pretty fair / honest people it seems. As for your visa - I guess you have it sorted out already. I ... Read More
