When I first seriously considered moving here in 2012, I talked to her about her life choices. She was very sad to give up her Singapore passport (we aren’t allowed more than one nationality), but her life was there. She was very clear eyed about what she gained, and lost. She warned me against romanticizing it too much. But she wouldn’t have changed her choices.

That’s sort of where I am now, but I maybe didn’t understand why at the time.
