For those who’ve lived in both Europe and the USA, I would like to hear your take. What do you love about each place, and what drawbacks have you noticed? Whether it’s the Old World charm of Europe or the dynamic lifestyle in the USA, spill the beans. In the end, what was the game-changer that made you pick one over the other and if you could share the decision-making behind your preferred choice.
I have enjoyed living in Europe but it has never felt like home. Partly due to the fact that the move was kind of forced on us and partly due to the fact that our kids were not able to join us due to their ages. My heart resides in the US because of family and the fact that where I live it was impossible for me to find employment that was even close to what I had in the US.
I feel that the US is better for giving people a chance than where I am in Europe.
On a final note. You are trying to compare living in a continent vs living in a country. That is a bad comparison. There are so many different personalities and cultures when looking at Europe vs the US that my feelings might be 100% different if I lived in a different country but still in Europe.
