Moving, especially abroad, is not as easy as it sounds.
How do you plan to get an immigrant visa? (assuming staying for a very long-term basis... temporary work visa just isn't gonna cut it)
What's the job opportunity there? Is one willing to give up all the exp. and connection he/she established locally and start from 0 again?
How to deal with future F&F relationships?
The list goes on.
Would I love to live in PDX instead of YVR? Absolutely. But solving just the basic prerequisites is hard as hell.
I've moved many times since I was a kid. Asia to South America, SA to US, US to CA, West to East, and East to West. So I'm no stranger for full-scale relocation. So much so that I don't really have a sense of what is home exactly anymore. I feel like home pretty much everywhere.
If it's hard even for me, I can't imagine for others who have relatively less exp. than I do.
So, don't just shout why we complain so much. There are reasons why we are kinda "stuck" in here. So we complain in hope to make it better.
