7 Of The Most Popular Destinations For Brits Looking To Move Abroad
Thinking about a move abroad but not too sure where you should move to
? Take a look at these 7 destinations, ranked in order of their popularity with Brits emigrating from the UK, as shown in a recent report by Currency UK.
1. Australia - no major surprise, the country known as Down Under is the primary destination for those looking to leave the UK.
And with glorious weather, friendly people and a need for a range of different jobs, why wouldn't it be?
2. Canada - applying for a Canadian work visa has been something which has become increasingly popular in recent years, shown by Canada's placement as the second most favourable destination to immigrate to for Brits.
The country has seen a massive boost in every respect over the last four years especially, as Canada made preparations for the 2010 Winter Olympics in Vancouver, an event that was regarded as being a resounding success.
3. USA - whether it's New York or Las Vegas, Boston or Texas, the USA is seen as one of the most iconic immigration destinations, as people aim to move to live 'The American Dream'.
Whilst there are hundreds of thousands of people who want to move to the USA every year, only a small percentage actually do due to an extremely limited immigration policy, which is reflected in the country's position in this list.
4. New Zealand - located around 1,400 miles from Australia (going from airport to airport), New Zealand is similar to Australia in several respects, most notably in the way that the country enjoys a very similar climate to its neighbour and is arguably one of the main reasons for being a popular destination.
5. Spain - the most popular European country for those in the UK to immigrate to, Spain offers everything most could ever want to start up a new life.
For instance, the country receives particularly hot summers and relatively mild winters (which in turn means an almost completely year round tourist trade), is only a short 2 hour flight from the UK (meaning flights are particularly cheap) and in the main towns and cities especially, you can benefit from most of the leading retailers that the UK has to offer.
6. France - one of the most common dreams for people who are considering leaving the UK is to pack up their things, buy a traditional cottage in France and live the rest of their life tending to a small farm or producing wine.
Whilst not many people may do this to the tee, it is definitely a possibility and something that many people actually took advantage of in the late 1990s, prior to the country joining the Euro.
7. Thailand - although it may not receive as much press as the other destinations on this list, Thailand is a particularly popular immigration destination for Brits wanting to move away from the UK.
The cheap cost of living - a few hundred pounds will see you live a basic but comfortable life - is one of the most attractive factors, with the culture, climate and cuisine all being affecting factors.
