I wish I'd found InterNations sooner: It would have made my first few month as an expat in London much less overwhelming.
Living in Gillingham
Gillingham is quaint town in Kent in the South East of England with much to offer. The name Gillingham literally means 'the homestead of Gylla's family' in Old English. Gyllingas was a medieval warlord and was famous for leading his warriors into battle screaming and shouting - these days, though, Gillingham is a peaceful place with much to offer for those who live there. Nevertheless, expatriates moving to Gillingham may still find the transition difficult, but InterNations is here to help. InterNations offers more than 1,000 different online discussion groups on a range of topics from practical information about jobs and professions to food and drink. There are also plenty of forum posts, written by members, which give advice on many issues faced by expats but are also a great place to just get to know other expatriates.

Moving to Gillingham
If you are moving to Gillingham, The Royal Engineers Museum must be on your list of things to do when you arrive. Gillingham has been the home of the Royal Engineers for many years and the museum is one of the most important for military engineering history; it also has exhibits on the history of the British Empire. In nearby Chatham there is also the naval war memorial, another important sight. Despite all that Gillingham has to offer, though, settling in to a new place takes some time, but InterNations is here to help expats living in Gillingham or any other foreign city. Our Expat Magazine contains a collection of articles on various expatriation-relevant topics; from expat insurance and finance to culture shock and relationships. There's something to help everyone in our magazine and our platform in general so if you are an expatriate moving to Gillingham look no further than InterNations.
