USA - - - seriously thinking about it

[Lilelephant]

My oh and i are seriously thinking of moving to the USA. I am visiting an oncology hospital over in florida while we are there on hols! and i am doing some research into getting my accreditation over there to practice!
its scary but exciting. and would be a completely new start for us! just thought i would share

How exciting, we keep threatening to move abroad again - such a thrilling experience. I really hope it works out and you get to go!

I'm from texas, USA is a nice place to live buti would ratherstay in England I think x

Sometimes I wanna stay here and then other times I don't! Such a big decision

I guess I'm lucky-I'm dual nationality so got s blue and a red passport so I can just decide wherever I want to live haha! But it's a decision I think has to be thought through, my mum is English and hated it out there. She had me and my younger bro outthere an you dont get maternity leave which she found really hard as we were 6 weeks old and going off to nursery. Completely personal preference, but going by my father who is American, has decided the England life is better and landed himself a good job in central London so lives there on his own. He said he would never go back and he was born and bred there, moving here 11 years ago. Not trying to put you off - I was too young really to know anything about It but I'm glad I have the option sometimes. X

The mat leave thing is bad!

I'd consider moving abroad but I think I'd get home sick easily, although theres not much here for me.

No maternity leave/pay in Australia either - that sucks!

..but they give you something like a $7000 baby bonus PER child!

Ive been thinking about moving to the US for ages, Just never really got the funds to do it. Im wondering if I can apply for dual nationality.. My grandmother was born and bred in Minnesota.. Hmm not sure. Would just make it easier heh, I wanna goto Texas, Pflugerville baby! xD
