English-speaking countries

Southern Europe

• Southern Europe
• A popular destination for so many English speaking expats due to factors such as the wonderful food, weather and a different lifestyle to back home, we see here that in this region there are plenty of English speakers for us to converse with, however, the figures are not as high as places like Germany where almost three-quarters of the population speak English.

Cyprus has a higher average salary and more English speaking residents than Spain as well as a plentiful array of jobs in the service industry, but more expats head to Spain than Cyprus... So what does this mean?

• Cyprus has a higher average salary and more English speaking residents than Spain as well as a plentiful array of jobs in the service industry, but more expats head to Spain than Cyprus... So what does this mean?
• Whilst Spain is a wonderful place to live and English speakers are plentiful, if you want the sunshine and lifestyle of Southern Europe but to also be able to find an English speaker to converse with at work or at the bar, Cyprus could be an even better choice for you.
• As more expats choose places such as France and Spain, Cyprus has less workplace competition and herein lies the opportunity for you! For example on the Europe Language Jobs offers page, an offer of a Marketing position in Cyprus has around half the number of applicants than offers of marketing positions based in Spain, so while English speaking jobs are plentiful across the continent, going to places with less competition but a thriving economy could be a great move for you!
• Just a few other reasons Cyprus could become your number one choice of English speaking countries according to the team at ExpatFocus are low house prices, sunshine almost year-round, excellent quality of life in a relaxed atmosphere and interestingly in comparison with other parts of Europe: Cyprus has a low crime rate and good healthcare, sounds appealing right.
