Who are you?Hi, my name is Jeremy and I'm a Belgian guy.
Where, when and why did you move abroad?
I lived for 5 years in North America, after that almost 2 years in Central America.
Now I'm living in The Bahamas... Why? Hmm... Do I really have to answer this one? :-D LOL

Haha! I can definitely sympathise with you on the driving & road issues Jeremy! I moved from the UK to Canada and am having difficulty adjusting to driving on the wrong side of the road. I terrified my husband on one occasion, by making a turn into the wrong side of the road at a junction. Well... he was talking so much he broke my concentration and my instinctual driving skills took over!
