Answer this Question

When we asked people what advice they would give someone preparing to move to Cannes, they said...

"1. Be prepared to embrace the Mediterranean lifestyle; Cannes is a quaint seaside town with a healthy subtropical climate, surrounded by beaches and warmer temperatures year-round. 2. Cannes is the second largest French city after Paris and is known for its nightlife and festivals, such as the Cannes Film Festival. Be ready to take part in the cultural festivities. 3. English is widely spoken in Cannes, however French is the official language and learning some of the basics can help make everyday interactions smoother. 4. The cost of living in Cannes is relatively high, but the city offers public transport and other amenities to make life simpler. 5. Healthcare services in Cannes are of a high standard and there are many public and private health providers for residents and expats alike. 6. While Cannes has great food, some items can be expensive, so it's wise to explore the local markets for a more cost-effective diet. 7. If you are moving to Cannes from another country, be sure to check all the necessary visa and immigration requirements before arriving," said a member in Cannes, France, France.
