UK family moving to Liberia

Hi there peope :)

My name is Caroline and i am currently living in England.

My husband currently works in Yepeka (think thats how it is spelt!) in Liberia, normally 6 weeks working, 2 weeks home.

He is possibly getting a permnanet contract in Yepeka and we are considering moving out to Liberia as a family.

We have 3 children, 7years, 5years and 1year old.

Basically, i dont know anything about Liberia apart from what my husband has told me!

Could anyone please advise on healthcare and schooling as theses would be our main concerns. What is Liberia like?! Is there an area that has alot of other UK families? Places near or just outside Yepeka? etc. Anything to take into consideration would be very helpful.

Thanking you so much in advance.

Regards

Caroline

Make sure the kids have all their immunizations.  Schools will be a challenge there.  Yekepa is lovely and peaceful but lacks many of the modern conveniences. The kids will love exploring the outdoors and the county but make sure they take their malaria pills.  bring lots of books, dvds and other things

Hi Mamba Point,

Feel free to create a new topic on the Liberia Forum, as the topic you posted on is from 2012.

Thank you,
