Guest Posted September 27, 2017 Share Posted September 27, 2017 Is it something anyone has ever considered in the future? Whether its being an expat or going there for a short amount of time? Right now I'm very happy about where I am but I would like to spend a year or 2 in a different country sometime in my twenties. Mexico and Malaysia have always been the 2 on my wishlist.

Burning Gold Posted September 27, 2017 Share Posted September 27, 2017 It's something I'd very much like to do at some point; I've been in England long enough. Unfortunately, I don't think I'll get the chance any time soon, and I'm not sure I'd take it if I did as I'm too tied to this country at the moment.

Subscriber RandoEFC+ Posted September 27, 2017 Subscriber Share Posted September 27, 2017 I would never consider immigration, after all it caused every single problem that exists in the UK. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danny Posted September 28, 2017 Share Posted September 28, 2017 I currently live in Sydney, I would love to be able to live in Australia permanently. Maybe Queensland or the Northern Shores in Sydney. I could definitely live out here, America or even give Europe a go, Spain or Italy. I personally think alongside getting a career you want to stay in and are passionate about, travelling is key to living a good life if you have the ability to do it. There is no better feeling than stepping off a plane and landing in a new city ready for you to explore and live in. So once I've done my backpacking, have lived in Oz and NZ, have backpacked Central America and with a bit of luck lived in Canada, I'll go back home to focus on getting into a career I like that can hopefully take me travelling again, whether it's to settle down in a new country or to make short visits to several.

Large Posted September 28, 2017 Share Posted September 28, 2017 Not going as far as emigration, but the plan is for me and the missus to do six months in the States and six months back home once the kids have all pissed off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted September 28, 2017 Share Posted September 28, 2017 I've only lived in 3 countries. Born in Peru, moved to the USA when I was still not even a year old, moved back to Peru at 2, moved to Canada at 6 and moved back to Peru 12 years later in 2016. Honestly it is something I want to do some day but not for a long time. I'm too proud of my heritage to go away for long. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is my 4th country, but I'm sure it's not the last. You can be proud of your heritage anywhere in the world Seriously though, it's definitely not for everyone. I've seen people suffering from extreme cases of homesickness, it was painful to watch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toinho Posted September 30, 2017 Share Posted September 30, 2017 Well, we all know I spent 3 years abroad. Would recommend it wholeheartedly. Gives you a different perspective on the world and really broadens your mind. Most of all it helped me realise we have things pretty damn good in Australia (even though Japan is still a top performing place). Would consider living abroad again, strangely attracted to England.
