I am 43 yrs old single woman, revert since 2022. I am not married. I have two teens from my previous marriage (before converting) and since 8 years I've been living in France. France is not a place that I want to grow old..and definitely not a place where I want to die. I am blessed enough to work online and have ok/good salary alhamdulillah (2k EUR month). I speak Polish, English and French, and learning Arabic.
I have been feeling very outsider in France since I became Muslim. I don't have mosques around where I live (Brittany region). My idea is to move to more suitable for me country permanently once my kids get older and independent.
Question: where is the best place to buy a property and eventually,move for good?
* My priority is the Muslim community, access to halal food and ideally English speaking environment and not too far from Europe*
- I was considering Turkey as I have been there once and I loved the calm and content life there and hearing adhan being played and mosques around each corner.. The problem is that I read a lot that Turkish society is quite secular and liberal inside + the language as I dont speak any Turkish.
- I also considered Andalusia (southern Spain) like Almeria, it has close links with Maghreb countries but I am not sure how many Muslim communities are in there..
- I have been in Tunisia 3 times and I love the country but it is hard not to notice how people treat you differently in Maghreb region just because Im white woman and "im not like them".. I have too many stories about it and I decided that it is not my place.
-I lived in England for 13 years before and I am considering returning there and live nearby Muslim community.
My budget isn't a lot, just around 80k euros. I'm not looking for villas but just a small house/apartment that will pin me somewhere on the map.
Im curious how many of you have moved to Islamic countries and what is your experience..
