Are you and your husband planning to emigrate in the future?
Or just more holidays?


Naah too much work to emigrate, plus we have a few businesses already set up over here so it'd be really annoying to dismantle everything. It costs like £350 or so total to go to Turkey and stay in an all-inclusive hotel for about a week so holidays are fine. I'll probably buy a holiday villa over there eventually for holiday lets though, or Morocco as it would probably be cheaper. I prefer Turkey though.

That’s cheap travel. I’d imagine it’d cost 5x that+ to travel and stay there from where I am. A big part of why I’ve never travelled overseas anywhere - it’s very costly. Heck, it costs a lot more than that to just fly within Canada never mind pay for a stay somewhere. Fortunately I live in one of the most desirable places in the world and truly enjoy the places I can easily drive to within an hour or two. 8)

Back on topic: Hopefully my local favourite spots don’t all burn down!
