My heart has always been overseas; but once I had my children, I put that dream aside and carried on with my life in a country that doesn't suit us. We've recently decided that it would be possible for us to be an expat family, at least in our opinions. I'm actively working toward my degree (but still at a point where I can change majors and choose something that would make me more marketable, if necessary) and my husband has worked in the automotive & parts sector the last 20 years. Everyone with whom I've discussed this option seems to think that we're nuts for even considering this. I'd appreciate open and honest opinions as to whether it's feasible for a family of 6 to be expats. Most of the stories I've read aren't from families... I know it won't be easy, but I'm up to the challenge. Logistically, would anyone hire either one of us though? Honestly, I'd like to eventually make our forever home in a new country, but I'm not settled on any one specific place at this point.

Just beginning the research phase and looking at 4-5 years down the road...feel free to ask any ?'s- I'm open!
