If you move to Canada for example, you have to change; if you want to live happily in Canada you have to resign yourself to becoming Canadian (which, by the way, is not all that bad). And I suppose it's the same wherever you go.
That is why I never fancied moving away, that and the thought of being so far away from my family. Just can't imagine settling and it isn't as if you can just come back, so I will stay here thank you very much
