House Dreaming
Now that we are talking about going to the US, we always have had plans to migrate. It seems all our long-term plans are in the US, hence we arent even tied to anything here. We dont own a house, but I plan to buy one through the home loan program of the government by next year. It just seems such a waste of time to invest on something you will leave behind in one to three years. Anyways, if there are plans to migrate, of course, there are also plans as to where (which state) we will settle. As of this point, we are open - whoever actually has the best offer for my skills. We have relatives in California, Nevada, Chicago, Ohio and lately, a family or two has relocated to Colorado as they have acquired a sizeable chunk of Denver real estate that really is too good a deal to let go. They dont know anybody there so the move was a leap of faith. I honestly think they will survive though. We always do.
Back to house dreaming, I really prefer a house over a condo unit. I want a garden, a huge backyard for my kids to play in and space for party entertaining. I prefer the suburbs - I want a quiet neighborhood. I want to have a settled home by the time I reach 40. I want to give my kids that kind of security - something I never had as a child.
