Hi
Just thought I would share our decision to move back to the UK after nearly 2years in Townsville. It's been a hard decision but after spending Easter back home I realised how much myself and my daughter are missing out on family and UK life!! I can't believe how much I miss English life, walking in the country and everyone saying hello it was such a contrast from here where I am lucky if I get a grunt from fellow walkers.
I still have my ups and downs of "are we making the right decision" but when I think of spending the rest of my life here I just can't imagine it.
Being around my family and friends is just so much more important, although I wish I could take my house and garden with me.
All the best to those who decide to go home!!!!![Thumbs Up](https://britishexpats.com/forum/images/smilies/thumbsup.gif)

I have met loads who have decided to go back after ...well some even weeks....of arriving in their new countries....honestly even I thought at the time....how can you know....but for the ones I am still in touch with many moons later..they are still 100% sure they made the correct decision to move back home....

For me the first year was so busy I didn't even have time to think about England at all. It was only after I went back for a week that I started getting homesick, now I think about England all the time!
