And let's say, all other factors were equal in terms of pay and job opportunities. It would merely be an opportunity to live elsewhere and do something different. Might help your career, might hurt it. Do you do it?

Absolutely yes without hesitation. Where do I sign up?

That would depend on the continent. I don't think I'd consider a job in Antartica.

I spent a few years in Europe in my teens when my mother had a job there. I loved it. I wish I coupld have done it for my kids.

What if it is Asia?

Does that change the calculus?

Asia would be cool.

You thinking of going back to the mission area?

Probably not. Can you be more specific?

No, I cannot at this time be more specific.

Other than that I am a bright young man whom smart people might want on their side.

Maybe you should visit first. Or maybe CJF can pipe in. He's good at hooking up with chicks.
