Hi all,

Anyone here living in the north of England? I have a few questions regarding a potential 1-year research job offer at one of lesser known universities in that region and am wondering if this is a good opportunity or not and if it worth the effort moving there from another country with my family for one year? I appreciate if anyone from that region can answer few of my questions, please send me a private message and I will send more details.

Love

Kim

Can't help you on that, but am also probably moving from another country to a lesser known northern English university - for more postgrad studies in my case. I can't answer academic questions for you, but am originally from the area and can chat about anything else - towns, etc.

The good thing about the north is that it is much more affordable that the south. The rent and living costs are alot cheaper.

And we're ever so friendly.

Except when West Ham are playing away :)
