I'm thinking of moving to Los Angeles, London, or to any smaller village in the English Countryside.
At the very least, if I end up moving to LA instead, then I'd love to buy a summer house in England and spend every summer there, even after getting married and starting my family, so that my kids can experience that kind of duality that I had as a child (my family and I used to vacation every year; I'm originally from New Jersey, but we lived in Florida and Georgia every summer for 7 years).
I do realize that all 3 of those regions (LA, London and the EC) are wildly expensive - probably in the 6 figure range - but I feel it is a risk worth taking.
If push comes to shove, and I end up emigrating to England, then I'd buy a summer house in Los Angeles and spend the summer there every year.
It all depends on what happens next.
What would be the best city or region to live in, based on all 3?
I'd love to hear from any locals from the US and the UK about great qualities of the areas they live in.
People's heads turn when I say that living in America is repetitive and formulaic, but at the end of the day, it is quite true.
And even if living in England doesn't work after awhile, or even a short time, I'd move to Los Angeles and start all over again - simple as that.
I'd love to move to a more Liberal/Democratic/Labour type of area; Conservatives irritate me.
I don't vote currently; however, I'd only vote if I were to immigrate to England - and in that case, I consider myself a staunch supporter of the Labour Party.
I've watched too many parliamentary hearings from "Prime Ministers' Questions" & debates on LBC Radio as preparation for what to expect (politically and economically) if I do move to England.
Although a psychic reader suggested (when I was 19; I'm 26 now) that she sees me emigrating to Italy.
I'd never even felt drawn to Italy in my entire life; though I have very little Italian ancestry (from the Middle Ages and the Crusades eras) - so maybe Italy could be a great place to move to?
I've never even considered emigrating to Italy.
But I'd love to hear what you guys think about my immigration conondrum.
