NZ is amazing as well. Central Cornwall - my fave is the Lizard but near to Truro is an ideal place to start off for hubby & me. Many reasons really, the relaxed way for starters & slower pace of living, love the sea, feel at home there. It's a haven for my photography, bird watching and exploring . Where abouts are you there?
On the Lizard : ) I had no idea I was going to like it so much when I first came.. It was going to be a summer cleaning job and then I'd go elsewhere. But I found a job in a gift shop and met my partner here, and felt at home, so I stayed. Maybe we'll see some of your photography in the picture threads? : )
