Have you ever packed up and moved to a completely different state or country?

How was it?? Why'd you leave?

    Yes I did. It was a lot of fun and exciting. We didn't know what we were in for in the new state, but it proved to be a great financial move. We relocated to start a business. We had two small children and we

    felt like pioneers. But I have never been so happy in my life as I am in the new state. Go for it................

    A few times.

    When I was about 8 I moved from France to North America, and sort of jumped all around, between America and Canada for a while, I've lived in 3 provinces and 2 states since I got here.

    The first time it was because my parents got a divorce, so my mom wanted a change of scenery and moved to the states, and my dad ended up marrying a woman from canada, and moving there. Then there was a big mess with who had custody and everything, so my siblings and I pretty much didn't stop moving until about 5 or 6 years ago.

    Yes. In the 80's I moved to the UK. I didn't really intend to stay for nearly three years. It was supposed to be just 3 months and the start of my "Gap Year". But once I got there... I found there's so much to see and experience that I decided to spend my entire gap year (it was originally supposed to be just one year) in the UK. I lived in all four countries that make up the UK- England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland. I also took advantage of my position, to visit other countries in Europe. I stayed until the money ran out.

    I came from the Philippines and lived there for 12 years (like all my life until I was 12) then I migrated here in the U.S.

    It's freaking cold right now that I don't know what to do with myself...

    Of course we left to have a better life here in the city by the sea...

    Too many times to count... oh OK I'll count in order:

    Pennsylvania, Massachusettes, New Jersey, Connecticut, Tennessee, Florida, Mississippi, California, Texas, Illinois, New Mexico and back to Texas again!

    Each time I left to get a better paying job.

    I went to a boarding school in high-school that was about 800 miles away. Loved it!
