I cannot recommend leaving the USA more. I live in Italy now and it’s so much better. There are definitely down sides, but feeling safe, eating well effortlessly, and knowing I can go to the doctor without haemorrhaging money is such a weight off my shoulders.

I’m 35 and a Katie. It’s definitely an old name now- growing up there were always at least two other Katie/katy/catys in my class, but I’ve never met a Katie variant more than a few years younger than me
