This weekend we found ourselves in London, visiting some of our many friends who have relocated there. It got us wondering about our next move. While the delights of village life have been calling to us recently a weekend in the big smoke made us go back to thoughts of taking ourselves down there for a while. The pro's and con's, well:
London - pro's:
- More money
- Great social life
- More job opportunities for the future
- See more of our southern friends
- Shopping
- Living the fast life
London - con's:
- More expensive
- Would have to rent
- Busy life
- Away from our family and friends in the midlands
- Not sure our little cat would like it
Here - pro's
- Owning our own home
- Friends and family
- Countryside
- Affordable
- Could get more pets :)
Here - con's
- Less opportunities job wise
- Never lived anywhere but here
- Maybe a little too comfortable?
Ok so the pro's and con's lists are not great and if you think about it logically staying here is the best option and makes most sense, but when your young you don't always do the things that make the most sense, there is much thinking to be done, and while my dreams about the little house in country are what calm me at night, my concerns remain that I am young and want to make the very most of my life, all of it. I suppose time will tell.......
Come down to London! There's plenty of time to settle down in the country. You're only young once!
