I’d love to move to Oregon from the UK but I’m a single child and my parents are elderly, I just can’t bring myself to leave them until they pass. Until then Oregon will remain my dream, one day I’ll make it a reality ❤️

ALSO MAKE SURE YOU KEEP BRITISH CITIZENSHIP SO YOU CAN GET TREATED ON NHS AND NOT GO BANKRUPT

Being an expat for 15 years overseas this is so spot on. It's the intangibles that often get ignored when we relocate and then halfway through once the tasks stop flooding in you realize you've changed and the people back home have too. That was a huge mindset shift. Thanks for articulating this so well!

bro i spent years in the military and coming home was hard nothing was the same and don't feel like home anymore. That inner voice of lets go to the US is screaming in my ear but means leaving home again and going to live my life im an adventurer at heart and the pull is hard to hide lol well done to you guys

Love this look back after 10 years. Quite emotional really. And I can really relate to the sadness of leaving things and people behind in UK. Thanks for sharing! Hope to catch up with you in England one day :)

I’m from London! I’ve always wanted to move to the US and this video has really made me think a bit more into it! I appreciate how genuine you guys seem ❤stay positive xx

We’re going to see a surge of young Brits (hopefully including myself someday) moving to the US and Australia due to the current state of the country (low wages, high tax, the inefficiency of the NHS ect.) and it’s kinda sad because we’re in a situation where the best option is to jump ship rather than work to improve the current state of the uk

[nunziawright]

yep. This is me. I left Italy moved to Florida and I did not think of the cost of traveling after you have kids its been impossible. And life has changed over there too. nothing is the same.

When I was away from family for years at a time the ol saying "holidays are the hardest" is a real thing. Felt that.

I move this saturday to be with my partner who is American. I have always lived in Wales with my family, never moved from the same town as them, so to now be moving across the pond is frightening yet thrilling with this bitter sweetness left behind. I dont have any kids, but i leave behind my niece who is more like my little sister and my nephew who has just turned one. The thought of missing out on their life hurts deep to the core. But i cannot wait to be with my soul mate again, it just sucks that I cannot fly the family over to live in the US haha.

What a heartfelt message! Good advice, Merry Christmas to your family, hope you all get to go back soon and visit.

Is it less depressing? Cos living in the uk, especially up north, can be dull. Its grey, rainy, boring and just bland.

[theovertons]

Your mum is very proud of you 😁 and Sophia and Zara talk to me about u every day. They told me today that I had to come on and see the video that they are on 😊 x

[dennisdaniels]

Hi Chris, I hope you and your family enjoy your Holiday Season!

[kathyhall]

I left to move to Australia from the UK 13 years ago. Thanks for shedding light on a lot of the untold truths of moving your life. The guilt, the excitement and the extra layers you need to go through in life.

Really makes sense mate, I moved to the US 3 years ago during covid and didn't think id be moving when i did. I find when i go back home im out of step with life back home. Its not quite as glorified as it seems. Saying that I do love my life here and I'm having a real experience with a lot of opportunities. I think i you just make of it what you do.

[marypettyfer]

I'm so sorry the things that have changed 😔 🙏❤

I know that this is an older video and probably won't get a response, but. I've been living in-between LA and Liverpool throughout the last few years. But in the last two or three years, living in Liverpool has felt like a chore, like something I need to suffer through to keep peace with my family. However, my girlfriend of 12 years (American citizen) is wanting to settle. Start a family, buy a home and potentially have kids. And while I am super down to live in LA and would love to live there, it feels selfish to leave my family behind. I think I would prefer to be in the US and am wondering how I should inform my parents. Have you got any advice as to how to break the news in a way that will preserve my family's relationship with me? (I should note that when my uncle moved to Finland, he and my family had a strenuous relationship for a few years before they got used to it. (He didnt visit often)) I hope I'm not oversharing lol ❤
