Hello
we are new guys. Originally from Hull and London, now living in Florida.
Can't quite see us getting old in the USA so have our sights on France.

Just curious why don't you see yourselves getting old in the USA?

We are here on an E2 visa and can't be doing with the renewal process every five years as it is always such a circus.
We like the US but I'm sure we could be just as happy somewhere else where we did not have to worry about visas for the rest of our days.

Hi, and welcome!
You might do well to post on the France forum - no visas required for EU citizens, certainly, but plenty of other questions to sort out before considering spending the rest of your days in France (language, income, healthcare coverage,...)
Ask questions and give us details of yourselves and we'll help all we can!

Thanks, it would be great to have an opporltunity to talk to someone who has already made the move.
How do you like the area you are living in, have your French neighbours been welcoming?

Hi there and welcome to BE.

There are a few of us who think on the sames lines. I see you've already been given the link to our French forum...here's a link to our US forums just in case you feel like joining us in there.
