RE: Are you ready to be an expat? Am I ready to be one?

in #blog6 years ago

@justjoy thanks for stopping by and taking the time to read and comment. Yes it's a hard decision. We left due to job opportunities not because of the crime and because hubby loves new adventures and now that the kids are older we can do it together. But I do worry about the parents and family members and friends we left behind. We believe and pray for South Africa and all of the people we have left behind on our journey. This article has elicited an overwhelming response on many platforms just showing me how lonely people are in their new host countries. 😞

My daughter says it is the most terrible heart wrenching journey that she has ever faced. She daily mourns the loss of family.
Far reaching consequences that one doesn't even think of.
