Good afternoon all,
My husband and I (69 & 75) are very keen(ish) to move overseas (Cyprus). We love it there and have friends already who live there. We have no children but do have some beautiful god children, so we will miss them terribly, although I expect we will see a lot of them during holidays etc. I just wonder if any of you wonderful gransnetters had moved overseas, and what your experience, opinions are. I know I have to be 100% sure and at the moment I am about 90/95%. I just worry that if we don't then we will get another 5 years under out belt and wish we had done so. Its such a huge step - one minute I am positive, the next I start wavering, like today - got out into the garden and tidied it up ready for spring and thought to myself that this was a lot to give up. However, I know when I watch the news and listen to how our country is going, I just think, let's just bloody go.
My husband was in the forces for 33 years so we did a lot of living abroad during that time, so that aspect of moving is not a worry for me. I believe I can even do my job from there too, which would be a bonus. I think it it our age that is a worry to me, although we are both fit and healthy (at the moment), and we have looked into the health care in Cyprus and it is very good and certainly cheaper than private health in the UK (which we pay for currently)
Anyway, don't want to go on too much but would be really grateful for any experiences any of you may had
Many thanks
