I'm going to say that I want to move to Poland to retire in my husbands country. Life seems more fun there, everyone is relaxed has time for family & friends... it will be my turn to get a taste of emigrating!

An island somewhere in the Caribbean......just plenty far away from the in-laws!!!!!

Life's just a crazy ride on a run away train

You can't go back for what you've missed

So make it count, hold on tight find a way to make it right

You only get one trip

So make it good, make it last 'cause it all flies by so fast

You only get one trip

We plan to move to Nova Scotia one day soon...long before retirement. So I guess you could say we'll retire in my husband's country. :D

Sorry to pop a few dreams but when you get to retirement age you will probably be looking for "paradise" with a Mayo clinic and a shopping maul nearby!!!

Sad but true!! :blink:

Bottomline!

Get out of Dodge when you are still young if you can!

K1 denied, K3/K4, CR-1/CR-2, AOS, ROC, Adoption, US citizenship and dual citizenship
