Well, Antwerp is a really nice city, has a lot going for it and has a pretty decent creative/art industry. Moving can be quite expensive, depending if you want to move in one day (i.e. load up in the uk in the morning and settle in your new flat in the evening), but overall its doable. Almost everyone speaks, or at least understands english, although its always helpfull if you learn some Dutch/Flemish; and the paperwork you'll need to live and work there is no big hassle. Overall its a lot cheaper to live than the UK (no big surprise) and you can have a decent flat for an affordable price. The quality of living is pretty high, but not as expensive as the UK (for example cigarettes cost around £2.70 for a pack of 20 and a pint comes at approx. £0.70).
