Surfing Waves

K, lets just say i wanted to move to the UK somewhere, like scotland for instance..

since i've never been around the UK are there good surf spots?? and like what about housing..

like how much do u think a house would be there cause here in california its getting expensiveeee and i cant handle it, after college i wanna move somewhere where i dont have to worry about like money :)


anddddd yeah just anything else that people can think of if you live in the UK

Well the UK isn't as flask as California, expect to pay about £300 ($542) - £500 ($904) for a flat (or house if you're lucky) which is probably in a bad neighbourhood and you're next door neighbour being a crack dealer. If you don't wanna worry about money, UK is probably one of the worst places, i rmember i had an american teacher at school who got really skint because she had to spend all her money on the house that she was living in, she said she was shocked that it was so expensive.

And for the surf spots i don't think there are many good ones in Scotland, but i heard a good surf spot in the UK is in Newquay (right at the bottom of England)

well, crap :( my dreams are ruined

Hang on to those dreams Tokyo! Sawe - 'Not many surf spots in Scotland' come on, get real, there are some real sweet breaks in Scotland apparently, maybe some cold water too (mind you, you will be in the Gulf Stream so it won't be bad, and the sharks are of the basking variety generally!). If you are looking for unspoilt beaches with no-one else out then Scotland is a good choice. Accommodation up there can be cheap too but don't expect too much in the way of employment.
I'm from North Wales, parts of it are similar to Scotland, just in a much lesser degree, one or two breaks around this coast.
Newquay? Yeah, it may be the home of British surfing but the real surfers are avoiding it nowadays, it's the place to cruise around with your board on top but not the place for uncrowded breaks. There are loads more places around Devon and Cornwall that you will enjoy. The South West is costly to live though.
Oh, and by the way, I've never even seen a crack dealer!

Dude, Just get yourself a place to share with some like minded peeps and you'll be okay

try PerfectHousemate.co.uk if you want to find a place.

Scotland is beautiful with loads of good breaks. Like Custard said it's cheep and employment can be a problem, depends where about you want to go.

England is not as picturesque as Scotland but it still has really nice places. Devon is definately the best place. There is a couple of big towns for jobs (london is about 3 hours away if you want to commute) and a load of great beaches with lush breaks (ave about 3-4 ft). Stay clear of Newquay though. It's full of tossers!!

Anyway, good luck and hope you fine what you want. Incedentally, I'm trying to move to California. Wanna swap houses!!!! :D
