After 10 years in Sydney, buying a house, completing training in work and having two small children, we are now moving back to the UK for 6 months as a trial. My husband has long service leave and so will not lose his job here. We will rent our house out so again another vital piece in our life secure. I'm excited about "going home" and feel better now that a new job and UK rental house secured (we're actually using Air BnB to keep things as hassle free for 6 months). The problem now is that I'm not sure the UK is now "home." My first 8 years in Oz were spent pining for England, more so after children. Whilst I yearn for my family, and the regular contact for the kids, over the past 2 years I have really started to settle in Oz. We have opportunities here that excite me, and I can really see a future for us as a family. I feel Australia is such a great place to bring up kids, and I'm just not sure the UK can compete any more. Any word of advice from people who have moved back to the UK and stayed? Or conversely settled in Australia? Thanks.
