I ended up staying nearly seven years. Looking back, would I have done things differently? My answer is "possibly" as well. For one, I wouldn't have kept a storage unit in the U.S. for so long! But overall, I know it was the right path for me. I moved the UK and never planned on making a life there either – I was only supposed to be there on a one-year assignment.

Jacques--Thank you! Diana Strinati Baur--that's well said also 'living this life keeps me open and accepting of change' and I couldn't agree more.

Jacques–Thank you!

Diana Strinati Baur–that’s well said also ‘living this life keeps me open and accepting of change’ and I couldn’t agree more.

After a time, it's hard to think about going back. Some sort of separation really takes place. After 9 years in Germany and 7 in Italy, I don't know how adapting to American life would be--and in any event, living this life keeps me open and accepting of change. Well said.

The "would I have done things differently" question can be daunting. I find that the best is to accept that we are where we are thanks to our choices. Were I to start over, I'd make the same choices and mistakes :) Enjoy Britain ! Nice post. The “would I have done things differently” question can be daunting.

I hate to think about what I would've done differently had I known the future. It sounds intimidating, but deep down I know whatever happened I would've adapted. Considering England's health care options, you could have done a lot worse in picking a country :-) Great story! I hate to think about what I would’ve done differently had I known the future.
