Guess everyone's gone quiet....

Question:

If it was as easy to find work in the non-US country, would you live there?

It would be hard for me...I am very close to my parents and love my job here, but I would find it very interesting to live in the UK...

I haven't quite decided about that yet. My company offered me the opportunity to work in the UK, I said sure, offer it to me now, when we are going through US immigration. The director of my department said well it's an open-ended offer. Kind of nice idea, but I'm not so sure. The cost of living, the cost of everything :blink:

I'll admit, I absolutely love the UK, everytime I go there, whether it's been work or pleasure, I fall in love with that country all over again!

I don't know, I'm not closed off to the idea, just don't know when. I too am close to my parents, it would be hard not seeing them as often as I do.

It's one of those possibilities ....

I would do it if I had to, sure. It'd be really hard for me to go to Germany because of the language barrier....plus I think we earn more here and have a much lower cost of living....It would be interesting and nice to have 30+ days of vacation though :-D

I would go in a second. Like I said before I love to move. I would have stayed in St Lucia forever but I didn't much like the schools there and my daughter was about to start Kindergarten. I will go back one day. If Louis doesn't like cold Maine (I sure don't) we will find warmer climates for sure...in this country or the next!

I used to be fluent in German (about 20 years ago)...but not much use of it in Florida (unless you work at Disney)...

I would do it if I had to, sure. It'd be really hard for me to go to Germany because of the language barrier....plus I think we earn more here and have a much lower cost of living....It would be interesting and nice to have 30+ days of vacation though :-D

As excited as I am to see him next week, I'm freaking about going to a country where I am not going to understand a word they say :D

He knows German, but who wants a constant translator!! And the few words I do know in German, won't be of any help!! :lol:

It will definitely be an interesting trip!!! And for anyone who doesn't know, yes, he's from the UK, but currently he's living in Germany ... makes for an interesting twist -- for the interview and to visit :)

Question:

Yes. I am originally from Poland moved to the USA when I was seven in 1991. A lot seems to have changed there in these 17 years for the better. I am not sure which way the USA is going right now.

Sure we make more here in the USA, but I think it all evens out. For example people my age from the middle class are stuck paying for student loans for a number of years, so basically what your making goes into something else.

I'm flying into Frankfurt, then we are taking the train back to Minden - it's close to Hannover. Funny thing though, I couldn't get a flight out of Frankfurt on the day I needed to leave, so my departure to come back home is out of Cologne - which is close to Dusseldorf.

We are going to a football (or soccer to us Americans) -- can't remember the name of the town :( -- and I asked if we could goto Berlin, because it's only about 3 hours or so from where he is. Since I've never been there, I want to try to see some stuff while there.

Shopping is really fun in Cologne :)

We flew from Cologne to Paris when I was there. The airport is not bad and everything is said in both German and English :)
