I don't imagine that I'll acclimatise that quickly to a different way of life - having watched two Americans acclimatising to the UK. I expect to find things quite challenging, and coming from a health service that's desparately poor, where nurses cover many of what used to be Doctor's jobs, I'm told that in other countries that isn't so much the case which will also be weird for me. I do worry that I've got quite a lot of independence in my job role, and quite a lot of expectation and wonder how that'll work in canadian healthcare.
I suspect I'll be amused, interested and at times frustrated by the way things work. I'll miss the BBC... and get unnerved by how much advertising there is.
But my biggest worry is ending up totally isolated over there. It's unlikely, because Kathryn has her friends not far away. But then, I've hardly seen my friends here in the last year; not because I don't want to, but just because my time's been taken up with work. But how much of a difference it makes knowing that I *could* see them... I don't know.
