Visiting the island 28th March to 3rd April

I am visiting the island this month and would really like to meet with anyone who has moved here from the UK as I am considering doing this myself. I would be continuing to work from home (or a shared office) as all I need is my computer(s) and a good internet connection (I know, lucky me!). I want to find people who could become friends on the island so that I can learn from you to make my transition smoother. I'm also pretty handy and helpful, so would be happy to return the favour whenever possible!

I'm not yet certain where I'll end up living, and will be arranging to visit various towns etc. around the island and even view a property or two (renting to start with, for sure). I'm drawn to the northern side of the country due to the slightly less intense heat - I am sure it will take me a little time to adapt coming from the cold and damp British isles.

I have a hire car booked for the week and intend to make full use of it! I also have a days motorcycle tour as I'm a keen rider and this is one of the draws the island has for me.

If anyone is willing to meet up for a coffee or lunch to discuss your knowledge of areas, the way of life, moving over, or anything else you think would prove useful - please get in touch either by replying to this post or sending me a direct message. I will also be contacting a colleague who lives and works on the islands.
