No but a willingness to go elsewhere is the start to being willing to move elsewhere. If your content where you are why would you leave?

Ask my grandfather. To be even more prosperous.

Perhaps the question should be "why?"

I've lived in 5 countries.
1) Born in Canada

2) Lived in Belgium/Holland for my MA - where I had to get a student visa (out of my pocket), which allowed me limited employment options as a student, get a police background check (out of my pocket), get check out by a doctor for various medical tests (TB anyone?) and write an essay before I was given my Visa.

3) Took a FT job in the Czech Republic from when my studies wrapped up in Belgium- where my employer took care of my work visa, which was a 1yr renewable visa that I renewed twice.

- I would like to point out that in the cases of Belgium/Holland/Czech Republic that I had NEVER visited any of those places prior to my decision to move there. I lived in the Flemish speaking area in Belgium so my grade 10 French didn't do me much good and in the Czech Republic my grade 4 level Polish (thanks Mom) helped me minimally.​

4) Took a FT job in Michigan - which thanks to my US citizenship through my Mom being American, I had no issues leaving working FT in the Czech Republic to fly to Michigan and start work immediately.

5) Came back to Canada

Our plan when we hopefully retire in 6ish years is to move to Europe (France/Spain/Portugal possibly), initially part time but potentially full time if we decide to.

You have only 1 life, with an uncertain, unknown timeline, I've been lucky enough to know that there are many places in the world where I can find happiness and peace.
