Hi, I’ve got a difficult decision I’m struggling with so would appreciate appreciate anyones advice or words of wisdom.
I live with my husband in a beautiful part of the country, it is a safe village, we have friends here and good neighbours and an extra small income from a holiday let in our garden. My problem is we live 600 miles away from our son and grandchildren and as we age I am becoming increasingly worried about one of us being left on our own miles away from our family. Do we give up our life here to move closer to them? We have found an area closer to them that we love the look of, with better transport links than we have here and I’m thinking we would be better there as we age as we may not always have a car. (The buses here are about every two hours!) It is also a warmer climate so that may be beneficial as we get older too. (We live in the Highlands of Scotland and are looking at the South of England). We are in our early 60’s so have time to make a life for ourselves down there but I’m also frightened about giving up all that we have here in case we regret it. Also I am struggling seeing all my friends having regularly contact with their families and I only see mine once or twice a year. Thank you in advance for any advice.
