ICTChris Posted February 1, 2017 Share Posted February 1, 2017 If you had to emigrate where would you go? I'd like to go to Cyprus, either part. I've spent loads of time there and love it, love the pace of life, the food. I might end up getting a bit bored although I'd certainly give it a shot. Here's a list of places that British citizens have emigrated to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/British_diaspora#British_people_by_country Where would P&Bers like to emigrate to? Where do ex-pat P&Bers live? Where is the most obscure destination that a P&Ber has emigrated to? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tree house tam Posted February 1, 2017 Share Posted February 1, 2017 Yes Cyprus is a decent choice. Keep your British passport though, plenty air bases to seek refuge if it all goes tits up. Stayed in Mallorca before, probably wouldn't want to go back to live full time. If I had to go I'd choose the USA, if I got in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shandon Par Posted February 1, 2017 Share Posted February 1, 2017 Having grown up near Dunfermline, lots of places are appealing. Once the kid finishes school me and the missus fancy travelling for a few years. Keep a place here but spend some time in London, a while in New York, get some sun in Mallorca. Really is hard to beat Scotland for nice places to live and visit though. So easy to overlook what we have on our doorstep. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jambomo Posted February 1, 2017 Share Posted February 1, 2017 Oh and I have been thinking of moving to Germany or Austria for a few years now. We both really love it over there and have friends in Munich so that would be our most likely destination. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cardinal Richelieu Posted February 1, 2017 Share Posted February 1, 2017 Tristan da Cunha... the most remote island in the world. 275 people live there and the capital's called Edinburgh (of the Seven Seas). Can't imagine there's many jobs there for a person like me, but if I showed them wizardry like my mobile phone and dental floss, they'd probably make me a god or something.

Shandon Par Posted February 1, 2017 Share Posted February 1, 2017 Quelle surprises. A Partick fan choosing a tax haven, a Cardinal going somewhere he can convert the locals, a Jambo heading to the Fatherland, A Dons "no team" Bishopmill fan heading somewhere with 87% livestock ownership and a Pars fan just happy to escape Dunfermline.

smpar Posted February 1, 2017 Share Posted February 1, 2017 New York has appealed to me for a while. I'd probably end up hating it though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
throbber Posted February 1, 2017 Share Posted February 1, 2017 It mostly comes down to whether or not i win the lottery as I don't think i could be as well off anywhere else as I could be in Scotland. Loved Australia even though its somewhat ruined by the people but think its too far away from home and I would get homesick when things like Hibs winning the Scottish cup happened and if i was just doing a relatively normal job the only real difference in my life would be the weather. Would probably emigrate to Spain though if i had to chose anywhere and if i got homesick i am just a 2 hour flight away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

8MileBU Posted February 1, 2017 Share Posted February 1, 2017 Would probably like to emigrate to Florida for the weather and the way of life. However Italy is also a place I love. Beautiful country with amazing food. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had always dreamt of living there but unless you are in a very well paid job i doubt it would be worth it, probably much similar to the situations for millions in London.

jamamafegan Posted February 1, 2017 Share Posted February 1, 2017 I would like to emigrate to Canada maybe. Lived there before for a short while before and itching to return. It's not too far away from home and it's got everything I like - mountains, lakes, trees and wildlife. New Zealand is also brilliant but it's just so far away from everything. You really don't appreciate how close we are to other cultures until you've been to somewhere like there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Former workmate moved out to Cyprus with his missus after he retired, he had gone there on holiday lots of times and loved the place, but he only lasted 9 months before they came back. Few reasons which maybe wouldn't apply to yourself, but one of the biggest was missing his grandkids. He also found it a to be a very different place in the winter than it was in summer, and found it hard to have a decent social life. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
