A fresh start?

Lily · 09-Dec-2004, 16:03

Has anyone ever done this or thought about it seriously?

To what extreme did you or would you do it?

Sell everything, new career, new home....new country even??

Is it about being a failure and giving up or being brave to do this sort of thing?

TP · 09-Dec-2004, 16:04

As in quit your job, go for a holiday and move to another country you mean?

JPM · 09-Dec-2004, 16:07

No..... but I'm thinking about it now, as you've said it!!!!

Well, considering a purchase of a house in Italy, learning the lingo....

You don't count Tony, you're on probation from Her Maj's Prison Aussie.

Lol! Lily either appears to be the master of subtle persuasion or she's been dropping some seriously big hints lately!

Seriously though, yes I've thought about it often and have to admit that maybe later on it's something that we, as a family, may well do. It's only the family ties that keep us where we are at the moment, and I'd have no problem in moving somewhere (anywhere) I didn't know as I've done it plenty of times before, but only in this country.

Was within a phone call of doing that 2 years back. Meaning: all possessions in storage, pack a suitcase and move to the u.s.

Don't really know what stopped me. Actually I do, but that's a different story!

Lily, you've been getting awfully philosophical lately.

Anything up ?

Philosophical....

hmmm, well Fred always says i 'think too much' so maybe

Just wondering about people's experiences really.

So... would you consider a career change or just a job change?

Would you tell people what you were doing ot where you were going or just surprise them?
