We are moving to Nice at the end of the year, not professional ...my husband is working abroad, he is Canadian, I am french but I do not know well South of France, I was abroad for many years...so I choose French Riviera because my twins, I think they will be happy to grow up there! They are 3 years old. I do not know where to stay, the city etc. We will use maybe a Relocation company, but what we want is for Daddy an airport, for my girls a good preschool and close to the sea, anf for me a city for a job. Could you suggest a city %26quot;safe%26quot; or a place for renting at the beginnig and later to buy. thanks.

You might try checking out this website. I have absolutely no connection to them, only to know about their services and that they have been here for a long while. They offer a great deal of info. and guidance in moves to France.

You might also check out www.angloinfo.com I think they have a Riviera specific website that is most helpful. As I live in Provence, I can%26#39;t remember the website%26#39;s exact Riviera address, but perhaps someone else on here will. I think you can find it from the base address I noted.

That web site%26#39;s address is
riviera.angloinfo.com/forum/default.asp

Thanks a lot to U both, I read their website...I am thinking...not easy. Could you tell me some name of place you advice for living, for long term? Cannes, Nice, smaller....I know depends on the budget!
and about school, I do not find any help on Internet, do you know some website? private school a little bit but public, nothing? could be the way to find the place to stay.

The small towns of Mouans-Sartoux and Valbonne are delightful, and off the tourist circuit. The Mediterranean is about a 20-minute drive from either, as are Cannes and Antibes. The Nice airport drive takes about half an hour. We have friends who live in the area, and I can ask them about a preschool if you%26#39;d like.

Check them out. Many have an English based curriculum - along with other languages. I suggest you contact each one of them to speak directly with the Director.
