As the title says, for those who moved to Germany and have been living here for a while: do you see yourself getting old here? Why? Why not?

    Came here in 87. Always thought I’d work until I have enough money, head back to Canada and buy a cabin. Now I’m mid-50 and have realised for a long time now how good I have it here. Family, career and Europe at my feet. Why would I return to the tundra of Manitoba? So, yes, I’m staying.

      But friend, don’t you miss the Swan River Rodeo? The muddy waters of the Forks? The Brandon Agricultural Tradeshow? The satisfying scratches following mosquito bites? The international airport that connects you to at least two major US cities? Manitoba has a lot to offer. Why would anyone leave? :-)
