Chicago to Northern Ireland!
« on: July 06, 2017, 05:49:50 AM »
Hello everyone! I'm from Chicago, and I met a very wonderful guy from Northern Ireland when he studied abroad at my university. We visited back and forth for two years, eventually getting married in July of last year and we stayed the US. However, due to family circumstances, we are deciding to instead settle in the UK at the end of this year.

I studied abroad in England a year before I met my husband, and I loved every minute I spent in the UK. I am very excited(and a little scared!) to make the move! Just trying to sort out how to move and all of the visa requirements now!
