Can they speak Spanish? LOL I have never been to Miami. but in the paper they offer jobs in that area and some say must be bi-lingual. They must like heat. I originally came from NYC. but have been here since 1964. Summers getting longer and hotter. Of course everyone has AC.…

I'm sure I remember a few people here were caught in the hurricanes etc down in Florida this year? I have a friend whose hubby has been offered a job in Miami and they are thinking of moving to Florida from here in Alberta.



If any of the Florida members would be willing to chat with her via email about life for a family in Miami or at least Florida then she would really appreciate it!!!



Please email me back and I can pass your details to her. They have 3 young boys.



Many thanks Jane

They must like heat. I originally came from NYC. but have been here since 1964. Summers getting longer and hotter. Of course everyone has AC.

The first hurricane Charlie was headed our way but went south of us.. This year was the first time I ever put wood up on the outside of the windows. Lots of people from south of me went towards Orlando area (Disney) and the hurricane followed them.

We were lucky in this area the only thing that happened here was a 45 degree tilt of my privacy fence.

I would be glad to answer any questions for someone wanting to move here.

I spent 6 months living in Florida and would never go back. The warm weather was nice but I sure can do with out the crime rate it is absolutely awful. I like living where I know everyone and if you forget to lock your car you know it will be there when you get back to it.

Hi, Jane.

The difference between Alberta and Miami is roughly the difference between a school bus and a Ferrari. Tell your friend that his experience will be the very redefinition of the term "culture shock." And tell him to brush up on his Spanish.
