Yes, I relocated from Iowa to Spain to be with my Dom, later my Husband. Moving to a foreign country, where I didn't speak a word of the language, was a huge challenge but He spoke some (He was an expat Englishman) so I managed to muddle through until I had a basic grasp of Spanish - and the locals got used to me mangling their language!

We met online, on alt.com, got on well, and had a couple of exchange visits before we decided I should uproot myself from family and friends. Actually, my two children had already flown the nest, but still...

I miss them dreadfully, and my two granddaughters, and I wish that I could go back to see them more often. But Spain is my home now. I couldn't imagine living anywhere else, and when my husband died about five years ago I barely even contemplated moving back to the US. Now I'm in a new relationship (with another Englishman who I also met online) and life is wonderful.

That's a nice story MissShey. I think moving to another country with a different language and culture sounds like a wonderful adventure.

A very big adventure indeed.

But the first time I went to Spain, I stepped off the plane at Jerez and I instantly knew this was my home; this was where I was meant to be. Plus I'm solar-powered: there's no way I could move back to cold wet Iowa now.

It's certainly been a struggle at times, but as Daddy says: I'm blonde and I have big boobs, and if I can't make the Spanish understand me then I can smile and wiggle a bit and they tend to give me more leeway.

Here's an odd fact, throughout human history including present day, more than 1/3 of all people have never been more than 20 miles from where they were born. Even with modern modes of travel, we're just not nomads anymore (for the most part). There are huge population densities in places like Tokyo, New York and Mexico City which are small so there's no need to range further to get what you need.
I haven't left the continent yet, but I've relocated for love or business more than once including living in Mexico for a while (lovely country with wonderful people, but you can't get a thing done on a Sunday to save your life). I had fun learning the new language there through immersion. They gave me alot of leeway but sadly that's less because of my (nice enough) 'wiggle' and more because Americans are largely regarded by the world as incredibly stupid, and our educational standard makes it statistically true. They were patient with me because they expected me to struggle much harder than I did and were quite surprised when I picked up enough of the language for the neighbors/locals to realize I wasn't an 'American TV Bimbo Slut Girl' as it was eventually explained with much hilarity over some mescal. Even despite the expectation of stereotypes, they were never overtly rude or crude, except this one guy, but hey, for a whole city, that's not too shabby. I did have a small head start because I grew up in the southwest, so a few words and phrases were just a part of living nearby, stuff like asking for the bathroom or ordering food I already knew and I grew up hearing it spoken, not in the home, but in the city so it was easier to pronounce words I'd heard before even when I hadn't known what they meant. Plus really, the people there are just very nice and open, civic minded and friendly, they may not be able to speak to you, but they'll gleefully go get all the schoolchildren in their neighborhood who have taken English classes if that's what it takes to talk.

I relocated for my Master. I lived in the north east for years and he lived in the mid west. We were online for a year and a half. Last year I left PA to move in with him. It was and still is great. We moved back to Pa to be closer to my family and we will be getting married next year! Best thing I ever did!

Nice to read the stories.
I might be moving continents soon.
I need to establish a backup plan but I have the moving plan half done so...
the backup plan can be half done too.

Have done so twice. First time was from Massachusete to Michigan. Didn't work out I lost everything.
The second time was from California to Michigan. Didn't work out didn't loose anything but wound up in a dead in relationship with a much older man who now after 6 yrs wants me gone. I have found a Dom who wants me to eventually move in. He know that I am coming out of a dead relationship. W/we have discussed much and negotiated even more. I have started as a submissive and will eventually be a slave. I am coming with nothing and this is permanent. I have given up all freedom and choices. Yes it sounds like I am a slave already but until I am with him full time I am a submissive.

Yeah the Michigan thing is a bad trend for me or maybe it is just the Dominants i have met before now.

So you just jump from one dom to another so you can find another new place to live?

Well, since she clearly lives in a fantasy....so finding a new Dom before the old relationship over sounds just about right.
