Move somewhere new with a local expert at your side.

Every place has its own Corner

A Corner is run by a local expert who knows the area first-hand and puts their own name behind what they recommend. You open the app and you are in their Corner.

• Jacqui's Corner

• More Corners on the way

  We are preparing Corners in other countries, each with its own local expert, language and currency.

What you can do

• Explore the area

  Places and things to do that your local expert recommends, from restaurants and family activities to the services you need in your first weeks. Save the ones you like and get their contact details in one tap.

• Book time with your expert

  Ask for a one-hour consultation or a longer project block. Pick a time, say what you would like to talk about, and your expert confirms by email.

• Package deals

  Ready-made packages built around a situation, such as moving with young children, so you do not have to work out what to ask.

• Recommendations made for you

  After a session your expert can send you a personal list of places, with their notes, so everything you need is in one place.

• Settle-in Essentials

  Introductions to businesses your expert trusts for homes, banking, phone and internet, insurance, and moving and storage. Nothing about you is shared until you tick the box to agree.

• Events and starter kits

  See events your Corner runs and starter kits you can collect in person.
