You left off Seville, Spain...
Which is where I moved to accept a job offer six months ago. In my career field we receive overseas opportunities on a fairly regular basis. I'd hemmed and hawed at actually accepting such an offer before I finally got the gumption to overcome inertia and make the move from the US to Europe.
It wasn't a difficult decision as such. Divorced, grown child, not a home owner, so no established roots - makes it easier to just 'haul up tent stakes'. I was certainly willing to move to Spain as I had spent three years in Madrid 20 or so years ago and loved it--that made the idea of moving away easier.
My paycheck also increased, and I'm blessed to say quite a bit more than 20%--that made the idea of moving even easier!
