When first time we decided to move abroad, our son was only 1yo. It was not simple ofc, but we thought it was a great opportunity FOR ALL OF US to experience life in a different country. Most of our extended family always think that we shouldn’t live abroad and always stay together as a family in relatively close distance. Our life was pretty good. But we don’t want our kids have that kind of mindset. So we have to be the one whose take the first step, and trying to get out from our comfort zone.
Now we have two kids. We didn’t regret it. Even more, we are still trying to find a way to move to other countries. And in between our stay, we travel a lot.
We moved to South Africa. Can you imagine the horror in our family’s faces? We heard only bad things about the country. But the job was good, provided us with good and safe housing and stuffs. That was three happy years. My son might not remember it, but as a parents, we have a beautiful memories and tons of amazing pictures for our old days.
We never compare the country we live in with our home country. Every country has its own uniqueness. We just enjoy wherever we stay at this very moment :)
