Why you decided to leave your home country and live abroad?

If you have decided to leave your home country to live in another, why did you do it? Was it because of work, love, frustration etc?

I think that a lot of people decide to live abroad just as a way of trying something different. I know that for me personally, I just want to explore new places and cultures.

Sometimes people just do it to try something new or get away from the problems in their home country. For me, I'm planning to move to the Philippines this year if everything works out. One of my biggest reasons is the cost of living. On the salary that I make now I can live a really good life style in the Philippines.

In 2007 my siblings and I received an approved US immigrant petition by my father (he is a US citizen). I ignored the letter but my 3 siblings availed of the privilege. They are now US citizens and have no reason to come back to our country. Well, this is how I prove that I love my country by staying and trying to enjoy what it has to offer. My siblings left for the money - good job which they have now.

For me, if I decided to live in another country it would probably be to learn another language. I've always wanted to learn spanish so it would probably a spanish speaking country that I would want to live in.

I work in the tech industry and am seriously thinking about traveling abroad. For me it's about the excitement of seeing and learning about different cultures.

I am still living in my home country but I have plans to move to another country for working and living. I have no plans to live forever in a foreign country, but I might stay in a foreign country for 10-15 years. Instead of staying in one country for a long time, I might be frequently traveling to various countries. Actually, I am thining to try a nomadic life.

I have many cousins in the US and that is their common reason - to work for 10 years or maybe 20 years then will come back to the Philippines to stay for good. But I have not seen any of them doing that. Now my 3 siblings are in the US and it looks like they would not come home anymore.
