    Hi 00GAMBIT,
    I can honestly say it was the best move we ever made. PM me and I can let you know my story

    Avoid Vancouver and the Lower Mainland of BC. A Brit that only speaks English would have a helluva hard time getting a gig here. Plus, you'd have to drive in real mountains and, 99% of the time they will be night runs.

    Why not Australia?
    You don't need to learn French, you don't need to spend 4 month in a snow.
    Roads straight and wide:) , and on a left side just like in UK

    I've thought about Australia but the summers are absolutely scorching hot and I hate the thought of all the insects and bugs. If Canada is unsuccessful (which I don't see why it should be) then I could try Australia. It's certainly an option.
