Martinique: Retirement to the French Caribbean:
Hi,
My name is Laurence and I live in MQ with my husband and 4yo daughter. Thinking of wintering in Martinique or Guadeloupe is a great idea but it's true that the cost of living is higher but it's also true that life is different here, more simple more genuiwine.
Things that you have to know about Mq are :
*It's the safest of the french island
*if people are a bit cold at firt they will be friendly as soon as they get to know you.
*humidity is around 70%
*you can't live without a car
* north is pretty wet and very green but it rains a lot !
*South is more sunny and dry with very nice beaches but far from cinema and cultural life.
after that choosing an area to live is related to your lifestyle and what you like to do.
Bye

Hi there,
My name is Laurence and I'm married with Nicholas Collins. We're moving to Martinique in december 2013. I bet you made some progress on Learning french since may. If not I would be happy to help you out as I'm a french native speeker bilingual in both languages. I'm also curious to know if there's a English speaking community in FdF or some places where my husband and I can socialise and celebrate Thanksgiving/Hallowee/ 4th of July ect...
Hope to hearing from you soon.
Laurence & Nick Collins.
