Currently DH & I live in a seaside town in Somerset with our 2 dc's.. ds 3yrs and dd 3months. Although originally from scotland we moved here 5 yrs ago to help my parents who'd been down here for a while. I'm an only child and my mum was undergoing chemo for the 3rd time. She has had the all clear for 4yrs now.
DH and I have talked about emigrating to NZ or Canada for a very long time but haven't done it because of my mums health. DH's aunt is getting on age wise (nearly 90) and we'd only have enough points to go to Nova Scotia while she's alive..
So should we take the plunge and go? What would I love? Although DH has been a number of times.. I've only been to USA not Canada. What would I miss?
We want to give our dc's the best prospects we can in life. Education, Lifestyle, Work etc.. would they be better?
If we went we'd only need half the mortgage we have atm at the most and be able to clear it in 15yrs.
So what do you think? Opinions good/bad would be much appreciated. Thanks x
