Re: too old
There are a lot of people older than you applying - we are two of them! Never crossed our minds we might be too old.

Re: too old
I was 34 and hubby was 44 when we applied. Now I'm 40 and he's 50 and we've been in NS for 7 months.
Never too old for adventure :thumbup: |

I'd think very hard about the financial cost to you. At your age it's difficult to make up for mistakes and you don't wan't to spend old age poor and have no security. Secondly, a holiday in Vancouver is fun but living here permanently is not all beer and skittles. |

I was 47 when I married for the first time and then I moved over.:)

Re: too old
53 years old and FSW application under way. Wife, at 34, is somewhat younger.
My father was 50 something when he moved to Canada. I say move when you feel like it, not based on DOB. |

Re: too old
Sorry to sound too negative but I am going to anyway. When the novelty of frigid temperatures, the inordinate amount of snow, Tim Horton’s and shopping in the endless, endless strip-malls and the inane prattle about ice hockey wears thin and you look around to find that most of your financial security has been eroded and you haven’t seen your family in five years, remember that an interesting holiday may have been a better option to quench that thirst for adventure.

Does Vancouver have frigid temperatures ?
You could still just come on holiday every year. |

Who can afford to live in Vancouver? But I see your point. So when the endless fishing, sailing, hiking, year round golfing and picknics on the beach wear thin . . . ;)
