Whatever man, i like america. How countrys are ran is entirely upto the goverment, i cant change the way things are ran par a vote, therefore you deal with what happens like everyone else, deal with it like everyone else. Yeah americas got some fucked up shit going down there, but so has england. Id much rather trade england and go live in minneapolis where the summer is bare summmeeery and the winter is how a winter should be. Not much of a care cos unless your a highly placed polaticion (spelling?) you just have to get on with it however shit things are.

Not everyone is a retard and a racist too over there, infact ive met some of the coolest people i know out there. Your opinion like...

Not as easy as that though is it. It is a big decision to transfer your life. It is gamble at end of the day.

And unfourtulently some places you have to aquire a visa to live in, so moving there only really happens for family or job reasons. Not cos you want too...

why not? You can move to most places in Europe if you really want to. Unfortunately the british as a race prefer to moan and whinge about things, it comforts them.

If your single, have no family ties that are important to you, can afford it, and can earn a living.

As for the moaning and whinging unless you live in this country it would be hard to put into words the frustrations that arise on a daily basis.

London is full of ignorant, moaning and sad people. That's why I'm planning my escape to a better place. 5 years in here is enough.

trite phrase but the grass IS always greener. people always find something to moan about, if you moved to a hot country then you'd probably moan about being hot all the time.

personally i like living here, the people are great, there's lots to do and i like the temperate climate. i still want to live abroad at some point in my life but not because of any hatred of the uk...

I do live here.

I moved from another place about 5 years ago as I was bored. I had no job or anything, sometimes you need to take risks and have no regrets.

Its all about making the most of what you have innit.

If you have the courage, money and choice to start afresh do it, personally I am SE-London born and raised so I couldn't even think of living anywhere else, I mean I get homesick when I even get outta South London

.

Do I enjoy it? I love it as much as I hate it, goes back to what I first said, make the most of what you have, if you can't see any good then its not exactly right issit?
