Either in regards to the current political situation, or for other reasons. What drew you to the idea of living in another country? Do you think whatever benefits it offers are really worth it, or is the grass just greener on the other side of the fence?

I have Italian heritage and might qualify for citizenship that way, but the rules have been changing.

I'm told Portugal and Spain are "easier", but language might be a problem. Ireland would be great, but I'm told that's hard.

I'm only a few years from retirement, so perhaps that may open doors.

Finally, my company is expanding into Europe, so I may be able to transfer.
