| Move to another country to save money? |
According to this BBC Money Programme episode: Dream commuters cross borders some Britains have moved to France or Spain and now commute back to England for work. Such as Justin Saunders who used to live with his wife and two daughters in a two-bedroom house in West Sussex.
Fed up with the cost of living and his one-and-a-half hour each way daily commute to his office in Hampshire, they sold up and moved to France.
They bought a beautiful five bedroom house with a pool in the idyllic village of Albas, South-West France.
Included in the £180,000 price was a separate cottage that was the same size as their old place in England.
"It's amazing," says Mr Saunders.
"We're still pinching ourselves. We've transformed our lives completely." |
