Originally posted by BrilloPad View PostI was there on holiday and I got sick of it despite no hurry. A ten minute jopurney took an hour. We stayed in the smallest emirate (Ajman?) and there it was fine - but when we went to that 7* hotel (in the shape of a sail - burj-al-arab?) for afternoon tea it took ages. And the service was rubbish too.
But thanks for being so caring

Could become slightly uncomfortable in a caterham in the summer though as it has no aircon.

Dubai - wild west mentality and no taxes and good flight connections to most of the world.

Originally posted by snaw View Postbut have to say Christchurch is one of the most boring places I've ever been to.
NZ is a great place though and I would be staying here, probably in Wellington, if I had fewer or weaker ties to England. I'm thinking of trying somewhere Nordic after a stint in the UK, anyone got any thoughts on Denmark or Finland?

Originally posted by Cyberman View PostI've met a lovely Brazilian girl and I am considering a Plan B. The Brazilian government is investing multi-billions in the North-East coast as a major tourist area, and of course Brazil is a major oil producer and amongst the 'BRIC' countries, whose wealth will overtake the UK within a few decades.
It is very uncontrolled, bureacratic, slow and somewhat painful to get anything done.
Its not 'cheap' - people are cheap - things are expensive.
Non-Latam's never factor in security as a significant cost of a house or living.
Suggest you go for 6 months - 1 year to feel the reality.
Brazil also has 46 business taxes - nightmare.
Weather is better in the south - Sao Paolo sucks - cloudy, humid and very hot - packed with people and traffic makes london seem like a herbacious border.
but true, Latin America does have the most gorgeous women in the world and they're happy about it too.
And there's nobody there to bore you with housing market predictions/decorations/locations/BTL/interest rates - its not on their agenda.

Good luck anyway!
