Hi girls, well, for me it is more or less what you have all mentioned below. I am Greek, coming from a country that is currently facing a lot of problems. Moving here was a real deal for me, given the circimstances. I was always the "breadwinner" in the family as my husband's job wasn't good enough to support us. Now, I am here for 3 weeks, I have just found an appartment, still haven't signed the tenancy agreement, I feel an continuous pain in my stomach and I miss my daughter and husband sooo much. They will be here by the end of the week, but still I don't know where to start from. Many of you are native English speakers, there are plenty of Brits, Australians or NZ around, even Germans and Dutch, this makes your life easier. My daughter doesn't speak a word English (or maybe she speaks 2 :)). Greeks I wouldn't say that many (I guess we will increase eventually as it seems it doesn't get any better back home). I am very open person, I get along well with people in my working enviroment, I have spend a couple of years in other countries so eventually I will settle my self in. What worries me the most is whether my family will settle in. My husband was always very supportive, he was encouranging me to grab this chance and start fresh, but I am really worried whether he could get a job here and under what salary. Ofcourse I love him, we make a great couple, I just sometime wish that I could relax a bit financially cause he could fully support us and just be a real housewife and mother for a couple of years. I really don't know whether I will settle in, if this decision will change our lives in a good way or not. Well... many thoughts, not in a particualr order in my head... This is my first post here! Let's see....
