    I am lucky because of this: https://www.gov.uk/apply-citizenship-british-parent/born-before-1983

    However, we are living on my savings until I get a job and my wife had to stay behind for now. My daughter can be here on a travel visa for six months and we will be out of money in three. I need a job that makes at least £29,000 a year to get a family visa for the two of them.

    We’ve also only been here since the inauguration, so I am not all that homesick so far (I miss my wife and our dogs). Also I am just in awe of how nice and helpful people are here. I really didn’t realize the exact extent of American self-entitlement asshole culture until we got here and everyone has been friendly and helpful. Even the drunks.

      That does sound nice. Hopefully you’re able to find some work and you’re able to get the rest of your family soon!!
