Corum

Dear British Expats forum,

Just to say hello, I am 31 years old and since last year I have been living and working in Prague, in the Czech Republic. I really like the relaxed way of life here and the Czechs strike me as a friendly bunch - if you are prepared to embarrass yourself by trying to talk a little Czech to them first

I am married to a Russian Lady, and we have a three week old baby boy who was born here in the CZ, our plan is to stay here and build up some savings, and eventually move back to that green and pleasant land, the UK.

I will be needing a lot of advice about official document translations, passports, British visa's etc, so I hope you guys will not mind me asking a lot of questions

In return I can offer some advice from my experience in the past year here, marriages between UK and Russian's in Czech, and where to find Gluten Free food in the land of Beer and Dumplings

Thanks in advance for any help you can share with me.

Hi Corum

First of all welcome to BE and congratulations on the arrival of the little man.

I think you would benefit greatly from checking out our 'Moving Back to the UK' forum,which you will find by clicking on the 'forum index' tab on the top left of this page, scroll down and double click on the 'moving back to the UK' title and you're in.
There are lots of folks posting on there who are either in the process of moving or have done so, and they will be able to help with advice and information to help you. And don't worry ask all the questions you want.

We also have a general Europe forum which you may wish to have a look at and chat with other folk who are living in the CZ. You will also find this on the main forum index.

In the meantime all the best with your plans.

Hello...welcome aboard and congratulations on the birth of your son.

As Dread suggested taking a look around the General Europe forum would be a good place for you to start your journey with us.

We have a team of concierges who will help you find your way around the forums if you get a little lost. You can find a list of their names at the bottom right hand side of this page.

Complaints or problems should be addressed to a moderator...Mitzyboy is the mod for the Europe forums but if he's not around any mod or admin will be pleased to help you.

Please give me a shout if you need any help.
