Oops, 7 altogether

2 other than my own.

I've now spent more of my life outside of the U.K. than in it.

I've got used to the idea I'll be home for good only when a teaspoon of me is carefully transferred to a ziplock bag and airmailed.

Ive lived in 3 countries. One in europe and one in Asia and now UK. Culture shock was hardest from Asia back to UK. I guess because you expect coming home to be easy but it's actually quite hard.

UK, Spain and Australia. Am English but lived abroad for 10 years in total and genuinely spent almost everyday dreaming of the day I could move back to England. Safe to say, I will never be moving abroad again!
