Welp. It did. Where are you based?
This is the first time I've been somewhat concerned for future of the UK, rather than just apathetic about it. I live in the east midlands of England. I have some family in Canada. I've toyed with the idea of moving out there before but perhaps it's time to seriously consider it.
I must. It's now been ~2 years since my family's summer holiday in Canada; I still regret missing out on then unheard of Nitobe Chinese Garden that you touted in that trip report thread. I do have some sort of inner urge to move out there. Though I'm sort of scared that I'll just be 'running away' and end up disillusioned. At the same time, I see no future for me here. At least no exciting future. I've always enjoyed the prospect of the potentially treacherous nature of the unknown versus the predictable future. At the same time it's massive step which I'm hesitant to take.
