But do we take a chance and give up what we've got for a different more rural kinda life?
We are off to France in April for a week to see our friends and look at property and schools.
I speak a bit of french enough to get by but the others dont, i am trying to teach them.
I know it would be the best all round to move but it seems such a big decision to make which is something im not good at!
Has anyone else relocated before? Was is heartbreaking to leave your life behind? Or exciting to be starting another? |
I was in the Navy for four years and lived in Italy the entire time. I loved it. I was really home sick a first, but I adjusted. It is a really different life style and culture. I have also live in the middle east for about a year. Now that was an experience. On thing that I learned form living overseas everyone over there thinks that ALL AMERICANS ARE RICH!

I wonder where they get that sterotype from.
It actually took me a while to readjust to the states after being overseas for six years.
