Joining a blog site is all new to me but here we go. I am currently living in New Zealand and have been here for over 20 years. I have a wonderful son who is now at university and making his own way in life. His mother and i are now separated but remain friends. I am planning to return to England later in the year as i want to reconnect with my family and good friends who i miss terribly. I am anxious about this move as settled in NZ but it just feels the right thing to do at this stage in my life. I am looking to get some advice though understand that this is just a general introduction and will need to work my way around this site so i can get some answers to the many questions i have
Cheers Liam

Hi Liam and as Mike say, warm welcome to BE

So many expats have and are returning home that there is a forum just for those moving back to the UK. It deals with all the things that are making your apprehensive. You are far from alone.

Have a go at Moving back to the UK - British Expats and you will that all of your questions have answers and that there are questions you haven't even thought of yet.

I know it is a big step. Almost into the unknown since you have been away a while. It is where your heart wants to be and I know you will be fine once you get your feet under you.
