In answer to your question and so as not to bum you out, I only wish I'd moved overseas earlier in my career when I had the chance (I didn't because my sister was never going to leave the US and it wasn't really possible for me to do so when my parents were still living). Boy, do I regret it now, but, maybe we can all get through it together--young at heart, all of us!
