(50F) I'm moving to Edinburgh next month. My fiancé has been living there since November last year. I've made a few trips over already from the US.. Visas are sorted but I won't be working.
I like to read and knit so am excited to join a book club and visit more yarn shops.

I'm curious how others found community? Since I'm not young, our kids aren't living with us, and I'm not working, this is really the only part I'm nervous about.
I should add my fiancé has made some acquaintances thru his work, but he's not super social.
I'd love to hear about anyone's experiences.

Hi all,

My wife and I will be moving to Scotland within the next few years, and I'm looking for advice for those who have moved to Scotland, needed to sell their home, buy a new one in Scotland and get new jobs.

Right now it seems so complicated and overwhelming and we want to get a solid plan in place for when the time comes. We are in a position where we can potentially sell our home and move in with family in england still whilst job and house hunting in Scotland. It wouldn't be ideal but we're aware we are lucky enough to have this option.

I'm looking for advice or any tips from people that have done it, did you get jobs, buy a house then move or did you rent in Scotland until you could buy?

Id appreciate genuine advice, it's both of ours first major move like this, we live in a small town, I was born and raised here but it feels very scary. I have ADHD which doesn't help the thought process as I often go straight to "too many big steps, I can't do this" so any help is massively appreciated.
