But when she was given a chance to be reassigned to London, I suddenly realized that this was the opportunity of a lifetime and that we should not pass it up. We were given a chance to improve the future of our family as well as the quality of our daily lives (less stress from traffic, more leisure time after work and during weekends, healthier meals, etc).
After a few months living here, I definitely miss home and all my friends and family. But I can also say that I don’t regret our decision to try our luck over here.
