Hiya!

I'm new here and wanted to say hello and speak to others who have moved from the UK to USA to see how you are finding the change! Myself and my family are moving in the next few months to Dallas as husband is opening a new business there. I am 29 and have 2 year old twins. Am very very excited for the move and also a bit scared and anxious about it all, It's going to be such a change from London! I'm hoping we will be happy there and hopefully meet some great friends! Its very hard for us to leave our family and friends behind in the UK but am sure we will enjoy our future in the US.

Nat x

you not mention anything about immigration or visa type.

Welcome to Dallas !

Sometimes my language usage seems confusing - please feel free to 'read it twice', just in case !
Ya know, you can find the answer to your question with the advanced search tool, when using a PC? Ditch the handphone, come back later on a PC, and try again.

Thank you all for the warm welcome! I really hope the children adjust to their new environment and new people around them, people keep telling me kids are resilient, lets hope so. Last thing we want to do is upset and confuse them.

Looking forward to getting there, hurry up visa!

Oh, and the food is what I'm MOST looking forward to there :yes:
