People move away from the U.S. for a wide range of reasons. Some relocate, either temporarily or permanently, for their jobs and careers. Others leave the country to enjoy retirement, to take in new scenery and perhaps to stretch their retirement savings a bit further. Still others move away from home to pursue a romantic relationship, or simply to add adventure to their lives.
As bad as this sounds, don’t let these obstacles deter you from making an exciting leap to a new country. Transitional challenges affect people to differing degrees, and it is important to remember they are transitional issues — they don’t last, or at least they don’t have to last if you take the right steps.
