•  On a professional level, it is an amazing opportunity to expand beyond Canada and run a business that is 3X what I run today.  International experience, I have been told, is invaluable to executive development long term.
• For our family, it will open a new world. Europe is a skip away ($50 flights or 2 hour train rides) and the ability to expose our children to the history and culture of the continent is just too tempting. 

It is an exciting time for the family and something that we have wanted to pursue for quite a while. On a personal level, going international is something that we set as a family goal 3 years ago.

It is a testament to the power of goals, set your mind and focus on achieving a goal and it can be attained.

That being said, the next 6 weeks will be very crazy for us (As the last 6 weeks have) as we transition between continents. Expect me to be back around the July time frame.

Cheers
