Except that nursing visas have been in retrogression for some years. But as he's only 19, by the time he has finished his training, who knows what the situation will be -- both visa-wise and girlfriend-wise!

They might have socialized medicine here by then and he'll go off the whole idea.

I would put it that ANYWHERE is nice if you have the money to buy a house and make your future in a nice part of town.

Given the difficulties in actually achieving the move, I'm sure it looks good from the outside - and trust me, you're looking at it from the outside - but the reality is very different. I can't count the differences I didn't take into account when I came here (on a K1, in case you're wondering).

As already stated, the grass is always greener...

The guy's 19 with a bullet - how could it hurt you when it looks so good?
