Hi All,
This Aussie Expat is Interested in learning more about what it's like Living in SOUTHEND ON SEA?
We spent 15 years living in USA; 12 months living in Cardiff, Wales and these last 6 months living in ReadIng! 5 months ago we spent a 3 night Getaway in a Suite with a water view within the Park Inn by Radisson Palace Southend-on-Sea! It might have been a short visit; but it's left a lasting impression on my heart. So much so; I'd like to plan towards calling SOUTHEND my permanent home! However, prior to this occurring, I'd welcome earning from others here; everything and anything worth knowing about Southend and al, it has to offer as a permanent resident? It's more than likely the hubs will commute into London via Train for his Work; whilst I'd likely find work as a (M-F / 9-5) Receptionist somewhere within the Southend local area.
I'm Looking towards relocating mid 2017 there?
So It'd be nice to link up online socially with any local Expats living in this area - ensuring I don't move / arrive into this area as an Unknown Stranger, knowing not a sole! This worked nicely B4 we relocated from USA to Cardiff, Wales; it was a nice arriving with a few friends awaiting my arrival; however, I didn't do this B4 I relocated to Reading and 6 months in; I still don't know anyone here in Reading yet! Cardiff folks are Warm, Welcoming and very friendly to strangers; not finding the same here in Reading, although they ain't rude either! They simply ain't as open to others like they were towards us in Cardiff.
I wonder what I can expect in Southend?? As I'm a very social person with an outgoing personality.
Thanks in Advance for any Posts to this! Sandy.
