yah. must dare to take risk lah, i guess.
i got a friend, no pr no nothing. just gave up his job in sg and
take up mba at one of the biz uni. reputable one lah. after his
first year, he got internship in kenya. quite good. got pay and
accommodation.
then even before he finish his 2nd year (graduation year), he got
offered a job in the states. now, he is working in the states
liao.
so, it's like, u never know till u try. if like durian bao jiak,
then kang kor lah. nothing falls on our laps leh, must kaki
pok.
good luck with your decisions ah 
yah, when we retire, we will look for a winter home. most canadians
chose florida but the crime rate quite high. now, the popular place
is arizona. we don't know yet. still got some years to think about.
thanks
