"moving to morroco"
Posted by nicole on

I am thinking of moving to morroco (marrakesh, fez or agadir) and
wanted to speak to others who have made the move from the UK. I like
the idea of living in a riad and we would want to run a guest house
from there. Is there anyone out there who could tell me about these
cities and whether there are international schools there? What it's
really like to live there? I am only in the preliminary stages of my
research so I don't know anything at all!
Regards, |

Dear Nicole,
I've
been living in Fez for eight years and really love it. I live in the
medina in a traditional house. There will be a new international school
opening up here in the fall.
I would suggest coming for an extended
visit before moving here. People seem to either love it or hate it. Fez
is a better option for buying a house or riad these days, since
Marrakech has become very expensive. I have some info about this on my
site www.houseinfez.com. Also please feel free to write me an email if
you have any questions.

Back to nature and basics...
Keep the ballance in your life, This is what should be the driving factors for your move..
my
tanent in Marrakech moved from Sandiego California a year ago and now
she lives in Marrakech, I got to see her this past jully and I had an
interview with her about the steps she took to make the move..
I have lived in LOS ANGELES for 14 years and It is as hard for you as for me to think about moving..
But if you have the will you got the way...
go there for vacation, pretend you live there and see if everything is accessible to you..
for
most part.. if your attentions are to move there for a slow paste life
style and a healthy moral.. then it is the right place for you ..
close to europe, only 3h from london..ect..
Do it do not be afraid..
Good luck..
See you in Marrakech in one year..
I will be teaching in the University of Cadi ayad..
PS. there is an american school in marrakceh as well.

Hi we are also looking to move to morocco it would be good to keep in
contact. There are 2 international schools, i french and i american
both very good i am told. The french one is 600 euros a term. There is
also a good private hospital a polyclinic although i cant seem to find
out if the doctors speak english. We have just come back from Marrakech
looking at Riads, we stayed in one, i would say make sure you are not
too far from the main square and get a view of the mountains from your
roof terrace. There are i think tax incentives for the first 5 years of
trading on the money you take in foreign cash. Let me know what you
find out we want to do the same but build outside the medina so we are
looking for land. Good luck it would be great to have a friend out
there. Emma |

My wife and I are very strongly considering a move for the better life.
We have an 8 month old daughter and were wanting help with some things.
Where would we look for employment? I have found real estate, but don't
know the best locations as far as cost of living verses employment? Is
it best to sell everything here and restock when we arrive and get
settled? Thank anyone for any information. |

Posted by abtim on

Hi Nicole
Morocco
is a fantastic place to live. There are a few international schools
which are mainly the American ones in Tangier and Casablanca plus a new
English speaking one in Fes. There are certainly lots of places to make
into fantastic guest houses in Fes but not quite the tourist tide yet.
A useful site (look at the links and useful information side) is.
www.buyingmoroccanproperty.com
which is a not-for-profit general info site.
Good luck
Hope that helps.

Hi, I am planning on leaving the UK for life in marrakesh, having been
there for holidays I have very fond memories of the place the people
the rich smells.. I would love to hear from others that have chosen
this life.
I am an art and music teacher and have also done a great
deal with art and music as therapy. Do you think it would be possible
for me to find work in a school or university? are their any
international charity/community organisations in marrakesh that I can
contact? and what is an honest price I would have to pay to buy a nice
but basic apartment with room to live sleep and
make use as a studio in? and perhaps even a roof to sleep under the stars Mmmmm.

Hi people,
I
am planning on moving to Marrakech this September from the US with my
family. I need assistance in locating an American/English school for a
9 year old boy.
Maybe home schooling would be a possibility? Any help and/or advice will be greatly appreciated.
Thank you! |

We
are seriously considering home schooling once we get to Morocco. But
we've started giving our 9 year old French lessons in case we decide to
send him to a Moroccan school.
In regards to employment, we'll be teaching English at an English Language Institute.
What part of the US do you currently live, and what part of Morocco are you going?
Maybe we can exchange information. When you respond click the SEND ME AN EMAIL link below. Talk to you soon. |
