When we made the decision in early 2020 to bring back Livinglife we could never have foreseen what was to come. Our spring publication date was revised several times as a result of the global coronavirus pandemic. We feel exceptionally lucky to have been able to publish Livinglife at all this year – and that’s testament to our islands, their governments and their people. The Channel Islands are beacons of stability and security which has been further cemented in 2020. Whether it’s political unrest around the world, the Brexit process in the UK, or a global pandemic – the islands are fortunate to navigate the choppy waters and enjoy relatively smooth sailing. You can read about the islands’ responses to coronavirus, and why they were great places to be then as well as great places to live in the long term in following editorial. We sincerely hope you enjoy Livinglife and find it to be a useful guide to the Channel Island property market and the breadth of stunning homes Livingroom are honoured to represent.
