To travel the World for a year and settle abroad

I can't get this notion out of my head but I am desperate to move abroad. Where we live (London/Essex) is getting so unsafe and I'm terrified about raising our DS5.

I would love to simply sell up and travel for a year then decide on where to settle however it's not that easy as we have DSC.

DSS 19, DSD 16 and DSD 13. I'd happily have them come with us but they won't want to go. I wondered whether we could consider doing it when youngest is perhaps 16 but I still know it would be too hard to leave.

Do you live in a safe area? What's it like?

I just think to myself if I'm going to upheave our life, I'd rather try and maximise the benefits so better outdoor activities, better weather etc.

What's your view on dogs?
