or better an internal "expat". I did move from Rome to MXP many years ago and still try to realize why
"I’m an engineer hate flight crews of course and doing all this men stuff, working, drinking, sports and my motorbike"
Hey! We got the same feelings (who knows why ground staff always hate "naviganti"? btw I'm a dispatcher)... I drive a Hornet 600, but roads' quality would suggest an off-road one.... What about you?
A little suggestion: kids learn languages very fast, take the chance to expand yr childern's culture not hanging them out at english speaking ones only.
Ciao
