Hi I am currently in the uk living with my algerian fiancé of two years we are wanting to move to algeria as he had a house there etc and he feels we would have a better life there as he has his own house,money there etc. I have a daughter from my previous marriage who he treats as his own,is anyone else in the same position that can advise?

Hi I was just in Algiers a week ago and I have to tell you I loved it! I wouldn't mind living there with my Algerian husband. And for one I have never seen anyone get dragged there in the streets or any aggression like what slimdjebabera is talking about. I am sure there is crime but like any where else you will get that...My advise is to trust your husband Algiers is awesome!

Hi Dear,

Sorry for the late reply, i am very happy to assist your lovely family with any support and assistance if you wish to move to Algeria.
I am British Origin from Algiers and my wife is from the US we have 3 kids, we move to Algeria Last year.
I believe there is pros and cons everywhere in the world, but the most important in life is to live a happy and decent life far away from the pressure,
I am quite happy, the wife and the kids are happy, i am surrounded with great people, my wife meets reverts on a weekly or monthly basis, we male meet very often.
I am not sure what are you looking for but please do not hesitate to contact me you or your husband if you do require any further information
Best Regards
