Human migration dates back to 2 million years. People move from one place to settle down permanently in a new location, most likely a new country. The push factor maybe due to economical, environmental and political. The pull factor is always the hope of gaining a better quality of life, a greater career path and perhaps a better environment compared to back home.
When the word "migration" pops up in a simple conversation over coffee, it will be a hot topic. Is the grass greener on the other side? Well, this million dollar question is super depending on what you hope to achieve on the other side.
Down Under.
A country of equality, that emphasizes on fair system, safe driving, quality products and laid-back lifestyle. Maybe, I had enough of rat race in Malaysia, which I had to attend meetings that has no conclusions (9-5? It does not exist), standstill traffic jams that is unavoidable, skyrocketing inflation and seeing no ends to the Official No.1's spending. It's truly painful to the heart.
Last week, I visited the Migration Museum in Adelaide. It was an eye-opening experience.

Free Migration!? See? Migration is not new. And free summore! (back then)
Yash, new identity
We've got to have the COURAGE to make that choice, take action, let go of the familiar; our PRIDE. Keep moving forward and follow our DREAMS. The challenge facing the unknown, unleashes the power within to ACHIEVE greater things in life - learning new language, adapting to new culture and making brand new sets of friends. COURAGE is the key and it will open up our horizon to a whole new world. Be constantly uncomfortable and Just Do It!
Why stay in just one place comfortably forever? Humans are born nomads. Humans are explorers.
