Family

 

Does the country of your parents' or grandparents' birth fascinate you? Would you consider moving there for a better standard of living?

Perhaps you are attracted by potentially exciting career or business opportunities or maybe you want a different lifestyle.

We will be exploring the growing trend of "Reverse Migration" for a new documentary series.

Four 2nd or 3rd generation British families will be given the opportunity to 'road test' a new life in the country their parents or grandparents come from for several months, to find out about jobs, schools and housing. They might like it so much, they decide they want to stay.

If you and your family are thinking about making such a move or have always wanted to explore your cultural roots in Asia, China, Africa or the Caribbean, call us on 01273 224 816 or email familyroots@ricochet.co.uk
