Would I emigrate? Probably not. Some 20 years ago we went over to Canada to check it out and decide wether we would like to live there as Mr Kent’s family is out there. We didn’t like it enough to change our lifes direction. We could also live the life of Riley in India should we wish. We have the most beautiful house out there and have at least 3 people including a chauffeur working for us when we are out there, but even that full time doesn’t appeal to me, even though I would love to retire, I would find it really difficult to adapt living there too.
I probably would like to have a retreat somewhere quiet, not so commercialised where life is very simple to go to when I need to. Not sure I would like to move out of Kent to be honest :lol:28 January, 2011 at 4:36 pm #460372@anc wrote:
I am sorry for your friends T Pot :( x
I have kinda emmigrated – I live in France, but have a flat in London, which is a pit-stop for my family when, and, should they need it. The French health system is brilliant, as so, is the NHS. With the French health system you pay and get 75% back if you are not a ‘citizen’, but that is the same if you are (ie you have to pay 25%)!! Don’t ask me lol I think that is probably the same anywhere in the EU, dunno.
As for seasons, I love them, that is why we chose France (nothing to do with the language lol – I didn’t do Spanish, Italian, blah de blah at school – and I am not sure Latin would help either!), and the seasons are extreme here, but with a log fire in the winter, and pretty flowers in the spring, and wonderful different colours in the autumn, who cares eh? Same weather, different temperatures which is brill.
I do a job I love – teaching/coaching swimming OUTDOORS, which I couldn’t do in the UK – stuffed in a chlorine pool, stinging my eyes – no thanks!
You just got to have the guts to go for it. I have lived here now for 9 years, and loved every minute of it, well apart from burning some suppers once or twice!! lol
I like France anc, when the kids were little we always went there they loved it. You have the best of both worlds having a bolt hole in the UK too, its good to keep a foot in both camps.
Oh I’m good at burning stuff too :lol:
