From Juliet, Germany

Juliet, Germany

a) My husband was offered a job in a multinational pharmaceutical company in the area. B) we had been living in Cheshire and my husband had been working in London. He moved here in 2013 an I joined him after our daughters had finished their education and were established in jobs. c) we can no longer do DIY, garden, or wash the car on Sundays, instead we work, cycle, or go out to eat - not a bad exchange!

This postcard is one of several collated as part of collaboration between Dr Michaela Benson and the Migration Museum. A selection of these appears in the Postcards from the British in Europe installation in Departures, the museum's current exhibition exploring four centuries of emigration from Britain, bringing Britain’s emigration story and its emigrants into the national conversation about migration
