Greetings from Lalaland!
 
Hello Everyone,
Have been reading these incredible threads for months and getting to know one and all. I can apply almost every topic on MBTTUK to myself and find it almost overwhelming!
Have lived in the US for 30 years!! Been terribly homesick for over 3 years - spent 5 months in the UK and Germany last year (awful time with cousins in England) am now back and really confused. Don't know where I should go.
It's taken me months to post anything here - I feel better already!
I look forward to hearing from everyone I already know.

Welcome, Tanto. 30 years in Lalaland is certainly an achievement!

Hi,I can relate to the homesickness.I sometimes feel it but mostly when i visit the Uk I can't wait to leave again.We chose to relocate in Sweden and love it here although many don't.I think because we are just about 2hrs flight from the Uk and flights are cheap £70 return it's a good balance and of course staying within the EU makes things simple.

Hello and welcome to BE.

Although I haven't lived in the US as long as you I can relate to your problem. You'll find many like minded Brits in the MBTTUK and US forums.

If you would like to join us in the US forums this is the link.
