If you know where you want to move, what kind of job you want to apply, and have enough money to do it, I say do what you think you need to go for your life. Where are you moving from and where do you want to move to? You should start looking at the job so you can at least have interview waiting for you. Good luck.

Go for it if it feels right to you. If you don´t like it there´s nothing to stop you coming back. I did this myself. I was living in London & decided I fancied a change so within a week I had resigned from my job, sold my possessions & bought a one way ticket to Gran Canaria (where I´d never been before). Five years later... I am still here. Take the risk... if you don´t, you know you will regret it & always be wondering "what if..." The world is a small place now, you can fly to practically anywhere. The only thing I would say to you is... make sure you find out about visa requirements etc. It´s different for me, I am an EU citizen so I can settle in any EU country. Do some research & go for it!! Fingers crossed for you. By the way, I lived in London so if you need any further info or recommendations, let me know.

Go for it if you are sure thats what you want - Just don't expect it to be to easy and prepare yourself for some backblows Like I said before in another thread a little naivety and determination defintely helps as well... Been there, done that and will do it again , so yes I am all for it Good luck

i know how you feel, sometimes it seems to be better then to just leave everything behind, go to another place and start all over again.

London is the hard place to live. London perhaps is the only place you've really heard of in England. Yet house prices and renting will kill anything you can earn in a week. Unless you have some sort of skill, you'll be taken for a ride in London.
