Yes but what if it isn't just an adventure? What if you get a good opportunity in another country?

Wow. Ever thought of just packing up and leaving?

^^ Not really. I was a child/teenager most of the time dee.

Do you think you'll ever move to another country?

lol bv, im a somali and my parent came here cause they saw opportunity, so i guess i would do the same.

gaajo, u're like me, i live this house since i was 7 months old.lol

i tried to get school far away , found all the good excuses but i couldnt cause of financial reasons.

Four countries. It is enriching, challenging and i love change, only money is restricting me or I would have left UK long time ago, inshallah i will one day.

I know what you mean, lakin don't you feel like you'd be taking away the "stable home" part of your children's childhood?

No, i have fond memories of every house and area i have lived in. My childhood was stable. Children adapt well to change, i want them to see alternative lifestyle to the one in Europe, learn a new language etc, it will make them more rounded i believe.

BV wants to leave the UK, it would be a good move out of that overcrowded island

Came to the UK when I was 2 years old, lived in the same house since 1993, apart from a year or two I lived with my brother. Honestly cant see myself living anywhere but London, I get home sick after a couple of months, maybe Hargeisa though.

Noble, ever considered moving to Manchester? I've been there it's not bad

The concern is that I will never not want to leave.

Well I thought if I ever move for work-related reasons, it was common and most people leave the wife and kids at home
