Everything seems to be working in your favour so I think this was meant to be! I'll be rooting for you and encouraging you to SAVE SAVE SAVE!!

I'm just feeling ready for a new adventure, however long it lasts.<br /><br />T'Pol - I think you're right. The sooner I move, the more I can save. My only concern is hoping that my landlady and I will still be on good terms when I leave. But the opportunity to save so much so quickly is amazing. And it IS only temporary...<br /><br />Jolie - Thanks! I wouldn't stop blogging, I enjoy this community far too much. I'd miss you all as well!<br /><br />Marjorie - Thank you! Yes, my cat was my main priority, but it was resolved with one short conversation, and I can let go far more easily, knowing he will be loved and cared for.<br /><br />Sft - Excellent! I can't believe how much support I've been getting for this announcement. It's amazing. Being accountable to the community re: saving for it with a sealed pot will only help motivate me more. :)<br /><br />Pear - Thank you! I am Canadian, just have British parents, hence the dual citizenship. It does make the move a bit less scary as I have family and friends as a bit of a safety net. Regardless, exciting and scary anyway! I'm not sure the Brits have a Living Allowance, so I'll have to find a suitable name, but will likely still be NLA for a while...<br /><br />MW - the flight prices to London from Vancouver are STUPID. What happened to those $699 return flights? They're twice that now. It's why I'm definitely looking forward to the 20 Euro RyanAir flights and weekends away...how fun!<br /><br />Northern Living Allowancehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06663851212929175711noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6698917025069184978.post-52689359828459143202013-04-07T15:51:33.267+01:002013-04-07T15:51:33.267+01:00I will keep track of your whereabouts for sure.

It takes so much effort and expense flying across the Atlantic a few times a year. <br /><br />I can just imagine the adventures you'll be having. You could visit a different country every weekend if you wish! Doesn't get much cooler than that.MWhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13421430633168170078noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6698917025069184978.post-26713900287538541022013-04-07T06:06:20.234+01:002013-04-07T06:06:20.234+01:00Wow.

(I for some reason thought you were from Nanaimo?)<br /><br />Anyhow, I'm so thrilled for you. I love England. Will you still be Northern Living Allowance? Or...

This will be easier on your cat too, I think.<br /><br />I hope you will continue to blog. It will be so exciting to follow your new adventures.

I have to admit the lure of cheap travel is a great motivator for me as well, but I'm very excited anyway you look at it. :)<br /><br />Jennifer - thank you! And thank you for stopping by my blog. I've added you to my blog roll. I, too, love England - I can't say what it is that's drawing me so strongly - my roots perhaps. Regardless, I won't know until I try, right?<br /><br />Jane - Yes, British on both sides. :) I do plan to continue my blog, yes, but likely in a slightly different vein. I enjoy it and I'd miss all of you if I didn't. It's a place I can turn to for support, comfort and friends.
