I was literally in your boat like 40 days. But going back to Shanghai as an adult (who didn't have to follow my mom around everywhere) was a game changer, but also no kids + no wife + no dogs for 2 weeks, still though the experience makes me wanna stay in Shanghai forever lololol
In all honesty though, if it wasn't for my kids' education (which Canada is way better at). The conclusion from our discussion is we gonna stick it out till our kids finish post secondary and maybe I can convince wife to move back.
If I was single, I would buy a ticket today and move back to Shanghai.
There is enough equity in my house here that I can live comfortably back in Shanghai and do jack shit all day.
Including hotel + food + an unlimited data cellphone plan = $1700 CAD a month all in. (yes the lifestyle had me fattening up 18lbs in 16 days => $1700 CAD per month)

which is great because you'd genuinely want to move and settle there. my comment was aimed towards those who constantly shit on Canada but very clearly will never leave and always have majority of their investments here lol. so clearly, the reality beyond their words is that "China numba two!!"
