Hi All,
I've just received an offer to work in Tanzania for a couple of years, and have decided to accept. Up to now, I've lived in the UK my whole life, and have been based in London for the last 13 years. Are there any forummers based in Tanzania that are able to offer advice on living out there, moving, and all sorts of general stuff? I've got about 3 months to go before I'll be starting in the new job, and at the moment, this doesn't seem like nearly enough time to get everything organised! |

As a gentle reminder to all, the forum should not be used for marketing or advertising your own business. Free advice and opinion is always welcome, but BE cannot be used for selling your own services or products. If in doubt, the site rules can be found at the top of the page.

Hello All,
Just wanted to say hello. My other half (Canadian) and I live in Scotland, but are currently waiting for my visa application to come through as he wants to go back home and, ideally, would prefer to take me with :) We have found the forums very useful while filling out forms and organising our stuff and I thought it was time to make my relationship with this site "official". Thanks for all the help you unknowingly provided us with. |

Hello all
My wife and I have lived in Johannesburg for over 30 years, except for three and a half years back in UK but we couldn't settle there. Despite the perceptions we have a good life here, it's a tough place but the negatives are outweighed by the positives. We'll probably head for somewhere like Spain for a bit of a less edgy retirement. Regards Geoff |
Re: Introduce yourself before posting
Hi There - I was born in Northern Rhodesia in '61. From what I understand my parents (originally from South Africa) were British Citizens at the time. I have no British documentation and currently have South African citizenship. From what I've read I'm in same situation as quite a few folk who have posted over the past few years. Hopefully your experience will help us navigate the waters that lie ahead.

Once you've got a few more posts under your belt, you could try PM'ing them though. Good luck. |
