Hi everyone!
My name is Sara and I currently live in the USA in Oregon, but have also lived in Arizona and Las Vegas Nevada. I am 28 years old and have been married for 5 years, but we do not have any kids. We have 2 dogs who are like our children. My husband and I are about 90% sure we are relocating to the UK in fall 2010. I have been accepted at the University of Bristol to complete my MA and PhD programs in History (I will study the medieval period through the reformation). I am finishing my BA in English Lit/Writing with a minor in History and will be done spring 2010. I work at a high school as a secretary currently but have a background in medical assisting. I write a lot of freelance (ghostwriting) and am an amateur photographer & artist.
My husband works as a bilingual aid in the classrooms at the same High School that I work at. He speaks English and Spanish and is attending a two year college to get his Associates Degree before he transfers to a university.....he will most likely transfer to a UK university since he will finish his 2 year just before we move to the UK. He wants to study graphic design and web design etc. He is most concerned about finding a job.....we have money saved but not enough to qualify for the UK visa requirements etc so we are hoping he can find a job that will offer a permit working visa so we can qualify for the UK visa. Any suggestions???
We are both really nervous about moving to the UK....it's a HUGE change for us but I think we are up to the challenge. We will probably live in either Bristol or some of the surrounding towns like Bath. ANY INFO about relocating, the town, healthcare, school, jobs etc would be helpful.
I have done a lot of research on the Uni and town but I am quickly discovering I clearly have not read EVERYTHING!!! So I would love some help out here!!! Any tips please PM me
