We live in the French Alps but will move back to the UK in 18 months. The question is where to?
Dh currently does a weekly commute so part of the motivation is changing that but also to give the kids an English secondary education.
We love the idea of moving back to London but worry about moving these rural Alpine kids (ages 8-9) into the heart of the city. That said, we'll still spend school holidays in the Alps so they will get their mountain fix.
We're lucky enough to have freedom to live in many places, and would love thoughts on our options or any other ideas. Basically, do we try to replicate our Alpine life in the UK or go the polar opposite and have Dh around every day in a tiny city maisonette.
So...
Tiny place, very central London - Holland Park, Pimlico
3 bed flat, Zone 2 London - Highgate, Hackney, Dulwich
Bath (with daily London commute for DH)
Brighton (with daily London commute for DH)
Further afield with a weekly commute still (considering Yorkshire, North Devon or Cornwall)
Thoughts?!!
