All expressed information below is based on my personal experience, I do want to help all those who have some doubts export about a possible move to Guernsey. Please be aware that prices are estimates and will be outdated with time. (05/12/2013) LOCATION:
Places in the Channel export of the coordinates I do not remember this island as well above extension is located one might imagine after seeing her in "Google Earth". Surrounded by other islands, Sark, Herm and Alderney, is the home of the last sister island, Jersey commercial. DIRECTIONS:
MY EXPERIENCE: Car ZARAGOZA SAINT MALO (10 hours 30 min) + Ferry (3 hours) = 13 hours 30 min SHORT - PLANE: We can find cheap flights flying from Barcelona or Madrid to London Gatwick with companies like "Monarch" or "Norwigian ". Later, catch a second flight from that airport to Guernsey, in this case, there are only 2 options: Flybe or Aurigny are the only two airlines to the island, both have similar prices. My personal recommendation is to take "Aurigny", all tickets include the luggage in the price and the purchase process shorter. MY EXPERIENCE: Bus BARCELONA-ZARAGOZA (3 hours 30 min) + Flight LHR-LONDON GATWICK (2 hours) + Flight LGW-GUERNSEY (40 min) = 6 hours 10 min CURRENCY: Despite having its own currency, the pound Guernsey, accept both the UK pound, and the pound of Jersey, as they all have the same value, The truth is that only change the tickets, because the coins are the same for everyone.
Cold almost all year, and fog. Although not at all usual snowfall in 2013 saw one of the largest in its history. Mild summers, they rarely make the heat to which the Mediterranean countries are accustomed. Indispensable umbrella, raincoat and almost, if that, but take you bathing suit to swim in the sea but to do it on the streets when starting the "monsoon" XD LANGUAGE:
There are many possibilities: SYSTEM BUS: Good in summer (One every 15 min approx), mediocre in winter (Depending on the line, you can have a bus every hour, or if you have luck to be in a stop with several lines, one each 30 min). The price is 2.00 for the tourist, 1.00 for the resident. Currently to show that residents are not necessary to put the Social Security card, but one of the "bus cards" that can be purchased at the kiosk of the bus terminal in Saint Peter Port (Guernsey export Capital). TAXIS: If you can afford to pay Allow yourself frequently or simply want to give a tribute, the fare from the middle of the island to the city or airport is 10.00 or 14.00 from the middle of the island to the tip South: Jerbourg. Following this premise, you can estimate the price to another destination. No credit cards, so cash to spare you always problems. I leave the number for the best driver of Guernsey: 07781 122 128 (Brian, works from morning until 17h). BIKE / CAR: can do with any 2 for very affordable prices through a very useful Facebook page called: "Guernsey Ebay". Particularly encounter two problems, the island is full of fucking slopes and because the narrow export roads can mount the Fathers' behind you (Yes, the drivers are very respectful of cyclists export and never will insert a honk if you're slower than a snail with asthma). As for driving, if pudieseis also avoid, remember that lead to the contrary, the streets do not wear name rarely and parking can be cumbersome, especially export in the city (you need the "blue disc" parking). However, the petrol price is lying. WALK: The ideal choice because there is never anyone on the streets, you can find quiet trails export with amazing export scenery and it's FREE! ACCOMMODATION:
Since interestingly, no local is engaged in work related to the "Hospitality", but these seem to be designed specifically for those who come from outside, they know they have to put the property, however, we pay rent that is not bad, around about 80.00/semanales (Depending on the site, of course). I will never accept employment occur if the accommodation is not included within the terms of the contract, because the rent there is colossal.
MY EXPERIENCE: In my rent plus accommodation I entered the water, and light meals. FOOD / DRINKS TYPICAL: FOOD: milk and all its derivatives
