So! We live in Northern Ireland. Me, husband and 3 homeschooled kids.
I'm an American Citizen and so are my kids. Husband is getting sorted.
We are absolutely sick of the weather. Its too depressing for me and my kids tend to be in the house too often. We are definitely outdoors on rainy days that are not too windy or freezing.
We want to move to southern California. I'm originally from NYC but we want that good weather.
We wouldn't be super wealthy in California. But would build towards it. We aren't very young either. 40 Yr olds.
Kids are 4, 6 & 8
We are comfortable financially in Ireland.
Loads more homeschooling activities in Cali.
But we'd be taking the kids away from thier family (my inlaws) the thoughts does make me nauseous.
We'd need to maneuver when we get there. Build credit and all that.
I wish there was a way to financially be in California 3 months Out of the year. Or maybe somewhere warm. But is that feasible?
We don't own a house in Ireland.
We kind of love nothing tying us down.
Uni will be cheaper in Northern Ireland for sure.
My husband wants to live that Cali life.
I'm scared bc he isn't very outgoing. And I'm the one doing all the research and organizing this whole thing.
I'd say I'm not overly happy in Ireland.
I could do with moving back to NYC.
What would you recommend?
