I used to live in Pompano Beach and frequented many of the Irish /
Scottish / British pubs in the area particularly the Harp & Piper and The
Hill. I am looking to catch up with my friend Senga Doran from Glasgow.
She may have something to do with the George & Dragon these days. I am not
sure. She is well known in the area so perhaps if you know of her
and how to reach her you could pass my email on. Much appreciated. I
am currently living in Glasgow. Thanks, Jarna Fugere

Hi all, My name is Kerry Postel and I am
British. I moved here 14 months ago to marry my American man!!
I am looking to meet more British people in the Central Florida area for
social purposes but also to offer my assistance for people buying homes
in the Central Florida area that want a home security system.
I work for ADT Fire & Security and I know that British people
sometimes prefer to deal with a British person. I would like to be a
contact for British people who are buying homes here and wanting to
protect their family, possessions and investment.

Hello my name is Nathan
I am currently working in TV on Coronation Street in Manchester, England
and desperately seek to live and work in Florida but find it impossible, I
have searched for everything I can to help me to work and Live in Florida
but to no joy. I have been going to Orlando every year since I was
15 years old (13 years in total) and love it so
much I even worked at the Walt Disney World, UK Pavilion in Epcot for a
year in 2001, which I loved so much and would have stayed if it wasn't for
all the legal visa stuff. What I am looking for is a way into the country
to work and live legally, I am prepared to work doing anything which
gives me legal status, I have accommodation in Kissimmee, which is a villa
we own, but now want to give up Britain for
Florida. I am very hard working and have various skills to my name from
Advanced IT skills to TV production and Radio Presenting, I have even
presented radio with the Monsters of the Midday on Real Radio 104.1 as
well as Disney Radio and Universal Radio. So if you are looking for
someone who is 110% committed and hard working, who wont let you down,
then you wont be disappointed in me, all I ask is if anyone can help me
achieve my goal of living in Florida. I am 28 years old, healthy, have
lived the Florida life for a year so know what to expect. Any help would
be so much appreciated, and I will be forever in debt to you should you
make my dream a reality. I am easily contacted on 011 44 07734082701 any
time of the day or you can email me

Hi Guys,
Just a quick question, I would like to live permanantly in florida, can I?
I am a British citizen and have looked at
various sites on the internet ref immigration but they all want to have
money before answering my questions.
I know basically that we could stay in Florida for
90 days but what happens after that. How far do I have to travel from the
USA and for how long before the 90 days could start again. This question
is all I would like answered for the moment and no one can tell me.
Can you help? Regards

Hi there,
Please can you help!!! My husband is
going for his pilot's license and we are having to move over to Daytona.
As we have never done anything like this before, I am very worried and
probably a little bit scared. On the job front, it is probably the best
thing my husband can do and I suppose as a wife I have to support him in
some way, but the problem I am facing with myself is that I have 2 kids,
one aged 5 and the other aged 18 months. My baby will adjust no problem,
but my daughter has recently started school for the first time and it
has taken her a little while to adjust. I am afraid that if I take her
out of school and move everyone over there, we (not my husband) is going
to find it really difficult. What I am trying to establish and if anyone
can give me a little bit of re-assurance is that what is it really like
to live over there. Is the school's good, way of life etc. What about
living expenses, is it much cheaper over there and how long has it been
to really adjust. Is there any sort of ex-pat communities/social
gatherings etc with people who have had to do
this before. Or if anyone else's husband has done their pilot license. I
know that I am not the first and probably won't be the last, but if
anyone can reply and ease my mind a little. Maybe give me a bit of
advice on what to do and what not to do.
Looking forward to hearing from you,
Many thanks,

very different. It is hard for a Brit to meet good friends as the
Americans
are very different, however I met this girl who is fantastic and hanging
out
together is a scream. I live nr New Port Richey and also looking to DJ in
Tampa. Have a look at my web site which I recently started up. Anyone
needs any advice or wants to meet up for a drink
drop me an email.

Hello There,
am living “The American Dream” in South Florida. I want to inform anyone
who wants to be adventurous enough to take the plunge for a new life over
here. And give you the pros and the cons of living in Florida.
Pro: Beautiful weather
Con: Hurricane season from Jul-Sept
Pro: food is fresh and plentiful!!
Con: Need to have self-control!!
Pro: People are really friendly and talkative.
Con: there is no con to this pro ;)
Pro: Have top of the range cars and trucks that will make anyone’s mouth
water! Petrol prices are less than $2 a gallon!!! That’s roughly 1.10
pounds for you!
Con: We paid roughly 300 pounds for 1 Car, insurance in UK, however here
it's almost ...$2500!! That’s roughly 1388 pounds annually (but that’s
only
for the first 3 years though)
Pro: Employers normally cover medical insurance partly, this means not
having to wait too long to be treated, for either minor or major
treatment.
Con: If you don’t have medical insurance, be prepared to fly back to the
UK.
I could go on and on but I would like to hear a response from anyone who
has more questions. To finish off on a positive note, I don't ever regret
leaving the UK and recommend it to anyone!

Hi to all the Brits in Florida!
Mike and I are currently living in the UK with our two young children,
however, we have a great desire to live and work in Florida. We have a
real
love of Florida (& America) ever since we were married there in 1998.
We are keen to hear from fellow Brits who have made the move to Florida,
to find out a bit more about the processes. We will be looking to purchase
a
business to enable us to move. Has anybody completed this process? We would
love to hear from you!!
We would be grateful to receive any information about this process.
Hope to hear from you all soon!!

from anyone who has had an experience of moving to Florida, or buying a

others. What are the pitfalls to watch out for?
What sort of difficulties do you come up
against? Do you have to prepare yourself for some home-sickness,
hard times as well as good? Have you had legal problems, either
with your property or employment? Did you want
to return to Britain, or maybe you are in the

Hi,
My parents and I are planning to move to Florida in the future. we have
submitted the relevant paperwork to the Immigration Office for Residency
Visas and are slowly churning through all the details of preparation.
However, what we really need is to talk to someone who is already
living in the US who came from the UK. There are so many questions that
are not covered in the mountains of paperwork.
My parents are planning to retire in Florida and I intend to buy 2
properties, one in which to live and one to rent out as a holiday home.
Is there anyone out there across the ether who would be kind enough to
share some time with us to talk about the negatives of living in
Florida?
Waiting in anticipation. Thank you

showing it live.
During our visit we hope to be looking at businesses to purchase that will
provide E2 visas. If anyone who has undergone this process would like to
meet up for a meal or drink my wife and I would be delighted.
Alternatively if anyone knows of a property management or boat rental
business that is or coming up for sale please let me know.

Can anyone help? My husband and I are seriously thinking of buying a new
build property in the Kissimmee area to become snowbirds in the future but
to get a toe in the market over there before it goes beyond our reach.
Our problem is that we don't know anyone who has done this, and although I
have received packages from companies who "hold your hand" through the
processes and have agents over here and over there, and who do letting and
management services for you, they all sound very nice and helpful so it is
like wearing a blindfold through a maze!
Can anyone suggest good builders, real estate companies with agents in
both countries etc. or equally important, those to avoid?
Thank you to anyone who takes the trouble to help.

Hello,
My husband (and 2 children) are seriously considering a permanent move to
the USA - Florida seems to be the most likely. We are thinking of
buying or buying into a business. We have both
been in the hospitality industry
running/managing large busy pubs.
My husband is now in the printing industry but has done electrical work,
sales and engineering in the past. His skills are very much on the
practical side. I however are more suited to administration but I
have found my ideal job and I work as an IT
advisor for a local university. If anyone could
give us some sound advice/help in seeking a new life we would
be very grateful. The E-2 business visa is a minefield and we
really are not sure where to start. Thank you.

We are intending to buy a property in the Naples/Ft Myers/Cape Coral area
this summer, for long term stays. We would appreciate hearing from
anyone who has done something similar. We need
info on things like car purchase,
insurance & driving licenses, property insurance, and any info about
renting the property out while we are not
there. Really we want to know about all the
small things that we might not have thought about yet.
Any information would be much appreciated.

My husband and I have mixed emotions leaving NJ for sunny Florida and I
mostly because of my extensive English Gardens
http://www.pegeen.com/tudor-home-for-sale.html
WE are most interested in finding a garden group or something that can
help us plant as close to what we can down in Central Florida so we
don't miss those things we love so much.
Do you know of a professional or amateur gardener who would love to get
their hands dirty?
Any trips to the Chelsea Garden Show?

I am a qualified electrician in Britain, with an apprenticeship and all
the relevant skills in the domestic, commercial, and industrial electrical
installations. I also have an HNC in Electrical Engineering, which
means that I am able to currently work as a
plant maintenance electrician for a British
plasterboard manufacturer. I want to immigrate to Florida with my
wife and child but am unsure if my qualifications mean anything in
the US?
Can you help?
