We are giving up a very well paid job and an OK paid job, big mortgage and all the benefits of a city, to move to rural Scotland.
My new job is half my current wage. They rent a house for us (just heard at lunch they have a nice new-build sorted for us in the village). Wife has no job as yet, and jobs will be few and far between.
Plan is to get settled, buy some land and build a couple of off-grid holiday cottages for ourselves. New job has lots of holiday time, and lovely employer (I have worked for them before) Oh, and enjoy ourselves and family life some more, in a place where the ‘hot’ discussion is the amount of dog sh*t and how the ‘safari supper’ is going to be organised….
I am officially, pant-fillingly worried, and her family think I am mad/wrong to be making the move.
BRING IT ON!
