It really depends on how you look at things. I personally have lived in 6 different countries ranging from Asia to Europe, and even more cities. Each time it was starting anew, with no family support or even friends. In many of the cases, it was in a totally new environment, culture and language as well. Till my mid-twenties, I faced enormous problems dealing with an identity crisis. Finally in my thirties, I learnt to accept the fact that no matter where I go, I shall always be a foreigner and will have to learn to adapt to the local conditions where ever I am at that point in time. I now consider myself a Global citizen, and I can tell you that it has completely changed my view of the world. I find myself much more adept at dealing with whatever situation comes my way. The fact that I am a polyglot with an ability to speak four languages at a native level, and another three at an intermediate level, helps to facilitate my integration. To be honest, at this stage in life where I am over sixty, I still do not know where I shall end up. However, I look at this as an opportunity to learn and further develop myself, rather then as a victim of circumstances.

Hope this is helpful. In any case, I wish you good fortune.
