Thank you! I'm originally from Carson, CA (Southern CA about 20 minutes outside of LA) but now live in San Jose. My husband is originally from Scotland (Glasgow) and moved out here to be with me and get married.
Our potential move to Glasgow is for our future babies! We plan on having children within the next 3 to 5 years and we're best deciding on where to raise our children. My husband was born in Canada and has Canadian citizen but grew up in Scotland. His parents were born in Scotland as were his grandparents, etc.
Essentially we could move to Canada or Scotland. But Scotland is where all his family live and who are more supportive of our marriage. (I'm Filipino and it's been very difficult for my family to accept that I'm married to a non-Filipino, especially one who isn't an American citizen). The fact that there is free education and free health care is also a plus.
And no matter where we moved, my job as a teacher is pretty flexible in me being able to get a job. That's why I'm asking questions within the forum just to make sure that I have enough qualifications to teach immediately if we do make the move to Scotland.
I think, long term we are looking for what's best for our children. Not to mention that I fell in love with Scotland when I visited twice. Except their winter . . . where it was so cold and I almost kept freezing to death!
