[QUOTE="wawazat, post: 3683931, member: 35603"] I have a really good friend who moved to Hong Kong several years ago. His wife is from there and they wanted their daughter to have a blended education from HK and from the States. My now wife and I went a few years ago for Thanksgiving because flights are a little cheaper and we had the time off. I thoroughly enjoyed it there but am not sure I would be happy living there. The plan was to take the kids back with us last year now that our daughter is old enough to ride out the 17.5h flight from DFW to HK, but COVID kind of killed that. It will probably be several more years before the opportunity comes up again. We did take the kids on a road trip starting in Dublin on St Pattys. From there we drove up to Belfast and saw where the Titanic was built, across to Edinburgh, down to London, and back to Dublin to fly back home. That was a hell of a trip. I also did a trip with a group I had never met when I was 14 and spent 10 days in Belgium and France on a student ambassador type thing. There isnt really another country I would want to live in, but I do enjoy spending time abroad and showing the kids as many different ways of life as we can. [/QUOTE]
