We have two dds 1 & 3 - for the purpose of this post I'll over simplify - we currently love in southeast London and we want to move, the choices (after long discussion and the knowledge that both have family nearby...) are:
- Buckinghamshire (45 mins from London) village location good schools and nice community
OR
- Devon, nr ish the seaside, complete change of pace less income
One offers us the ability to earn more money while dipping our toes in rural life, BUT means more childcare costs, still commute and expensive
The other forces us to change the pace of things live by the sea BUT means we will always have low wages and we may struggle to integrate (altho we have parents in the area)
Great problem to have but we just don't know what's best for us and more importantly the kids....
Do you? :/
