Daydreaming about moving abroad
Lately, my wife and I have been mulling over moving to Europe. It literally is just daydreaming at this stage. Might never happen.
Has anyone else moved their family to another country without it being through a work placement? Or to a foreign country without knowing the language? Spain is on our minds lately. I'm an EU citizen as is my 9 year old. My wife is Canadian but under EU rules, she's entitled to live and work there as my spouse.
I made a move already in my life, moving from Ireland to Canada at 25, but there was little thought put into it. I had a Canadian girlfriend (so had somewhere to live), spoke the language obviously and didn't give much thought to finding a job. No fears whatsoever, but obviously moving as a family in our 40s is a whole other deal.
Not really looking for input on my particular situation, but I'd like to hear from people who've made the jump successfully or otherwise.
