So, me and DH have had plans to travel and spend time abroad for a while, and we have been working towards it slowly (by saving mainly). DH has today come home and let me know that a two year secondment has come up in Shanghai and asked if I would consider it. Obviously whether or not we actually went would depend on the package, we are currently on the 'should we even consider it' section.
We have two kids, 7 and 11 months. I spent my childhood moving countries every 1-2 years so am not a complete novice, although nowhere near seasoned.
Anybody have any specific advice on Shanghai? What is it like for families, any experience with the school (International)? Quality of life? Obviously our final decision would be based on much more than a forum thread and if we do consider it, we will look at going out there before agreeing to get a feel for it, but other thoughts are extremely welcome at this point!
