Just joined too ...... scared of moving back to UK !!!
Hi there
After 20 years in Asia (Hong Kong) I am petrified ......... I've done so much checking UK out online that I am overwhelmed by it all. Even my friends who I met in HK who have relocated tell me it took them about 3 years to re-integrate and that scares the hell out of me. I'm not young but I'm not old either. What on earth does one do ...... stay with a great salary but a way of life that is becoming mundane or take the plunge and move back with who knows what chance of employment (just over 10 years left in me before I'm thrown to the scrap heap apparently!)?.
BTW ......word of advice to anyone thinking of moving back ...... never ever check out <<<snip>>>
....... it will scare you ****less !!!
Hayullppppp!!!!
ps .... I will and am checking out the moving back to UK forum too but as this is me just joining I thought I should make a little entry here in the "Welcome Inn" too ....... cheers all
pps ..... any words of advice/reassurance gratefully accepted !
Cheers

Welcome to BE.
I see you have already found your way into the MBTTUK forums. You will find plenty of like minded souls who wish to move back to the UK in forums.
Good luck.
