My daughter moved to Australia (from California). She has been able to purchase a home, has always had work. She did not see how she could purchase a home in California and figured if she was going to move far enough away that she'd need to get on a plane to come home she might as well go to Australia. At least they speak English. She is very happy there. (She is in Queensland, not Victoria where the devastating fires are.) I can see why our ancestors moved if the opportunity arose.
