Would You Emigrate?
 

Just wondering if any other members are considering emigrating somewhere down the line in their future or if it's just me. :hugesmile:

I would emigrate but only to another english speaking country.

I wouldn't mind living out in the U.S. :)

Yes, though I'm not ready for it at the moment. I love England. But I'd consider Canada or Australia

yes Spain has been calling me since I was a little girl.

Having benefitted from living abroad .... it's one of the best things anyone can do - for a range of reasons.

Got to say, I still hanker for the life of an ex-pat but too far down the line now to consider it again.:bawling:

All I can say to any of you who think about it .... TRY it!! Some love it, some don't but you'll never know until you have a go yourself.:blush:

im coming to australia with you

Ideally, I'd love to live and work in the USA. Ideally..

In reality, it's a lot easier just to stay in the UK I think, I'll probably stay here but if the oppurtunity ever came to emigrate to the States I'd definitely look into it, I'd have to be sure it was a wise move though

I'm moving to England when I'm older no matter what. Although it doesn't really feel like emmigrating,it is only across a little sea.

The faster I get to America the better.

I've not got much interest in other countries outside of Holidays. I'd move to a quieter place in the UK though, like the countryside but not too far away from civilisation :laugh:

I spent a month in New York and it was the best time of my life.
Will definately move out there at some point :')

Almost ended up living in New Zealand. Was there around half a year. Had good and bad times but I realise how hard it can be to fit into another culture, and how not everyone will embrace you. It was weird getting to go back to your own country.

Think I'd really have to like the place and be in some sort of community there, England has many faults, but it's still home.

Same here. :)

Travelling is amazing, I would recommend to anyone if they have the opportunity and no ties - just do it!!!!

I wanna refocus on leaving here after Xmas was silly to try and organise it beforehand.

I've thought about it but I'm not sure I'm resourceful enough. I do want to travel a lot of places though.

Yeah I'm going to live in Orlando, Florida in a few years time if all goes to plan.

tamworth is like a different country to england,but its a bit un pc for the reasons why.

but im not racist i just dont think illigals should stay in this country.

I always said no, as my parents wanted to emmigrate to Gran Canaria (Id still say no to that still, its only a small bloody island, nice for a holiday but thats that). But yeah I would now.

I would emigrate in a heartbeat if I had enough money and if I could persuade my sons to come with me, and somewhere like Canada or New Zealand would be my choice, particularly as I have relatives in both those countries. As things stand I could never move too far away from my family and friends.

Not while the kids are at school but in the future I'd like to live in Spain

No, that never crosses my mind, I have a good life where I am, so why leaving.

I've lived in New York and would happily emigate there,it's my fave place in the world,maybe when the kids are older I would consider it.

Yeah I probably would

No:).

Are we the only country that has the NHS? That is the only thing I worry about. If you get ill in this country usually your hospital bills are free because of the NHS! Plus we pay taxes and that so if I ever do get ill I hope I get treated fine after the tax I have to pay! In other countries you have to pay for your own hospital bills etc.. mmm.

I do quite like England. This weather is depressing though. I am lucky to live in a nice-ish area. That is probably why? Mmm.. maybe from October/November until about February/March time I should live somewhere warmer! Like the USA, France, Australia! Etc..!

A lot of countries have universal health care. I think all EU countries are obliged to treat you for free anyway

Given the prospect of four and a half looooooooooooonnnnng years under this shitty coalition government, a near identical opposition party that represents fuck all, our decrepid, risible public transport system, a health service that is more than happy to leave you to die, a criminal justice system that lets off psycho thugs with a slap on the wrist, ridiculous housing costs, sky high cost of education, unemployment, overpopulation, rude noxious people (and no, that's not a typo) and its beer swilling simpleton culture, I would be delighted to leave the country if the opportunity arose.

so you love this country then.:joker:

Not sure. I don't see the problem with England myself. Okay, it's obviously going downhill because of the economy... but as people have said - we have free healthcare here.

Australia.

Every time I think of that place my heart warms!

We 'pay' for healthcare through our taxes. Nothing in this country really is 'free'.

On topic if I was to emmigrate I would love to move to Turkey or the United States.

This isnt exclusive to the UK though, just found this list of countries offering universal healthcare; 32 of the 33 developed countries offer it, the exception being the US where it is due to be introduced in 2014

Norway
New Zealand
Japan
Germany
Belgium
United Kingdom
Kuwait
Sweden
Bahrain
Brunei
Canada
Netherlands
Austria
United Arab Emirates
Finland
Slovenia
Denmark
Luxembourg
France
Australia
Ireland
Italy
Portugal
Cyprus
Greece
Spain
South Korea
Iceland
Hong Kong
Singapore
Switzerland
Israel

why is everyone spelling it emmigrate? :conf:

I would like to emigrate out of the city and live in rural area

I think all the world is going down the toilet so no point moving

Maybe Canada might be nice place to live though or Dubai if was millionaire and the sex laws are not as bad as heard

Not for longer than a year, really... but would like to go to Japan for a while. Maybe Germany too...anywhere really.

i shouldnt even be in this country i will probably get deported soon

im from kazakhstan

Really? I thought you were from Kyrgyzstan? :hugesmile:

only if I could take one of my besties

Tajikistan = the funniest sounding Stan. :love:

i would never leave California unless i absolutely had to. Like if the Mexicans some how gain significant control and turn it into the same sh!thole as Mexico.

If thatdid happen, and i had to leave, then i'd move to Oregon. If Oregon went the same way, then i'd Move to Hawaii.

If for some reason i absolutely HAD to leave the United States, then the only other country i could imagine living in is Australia, because they are so well Americanized.

Canada is too cold and boring.
