I've been avoiding Twitter unintentionally cos I'm struggling with feeling down. More than anything I'm "home"sick even though I've been living in London for a decade and in the UK generally for slightly longer. I'm prob missing out on great discussions but I can't do it yet.

As much as I love London it's plagued by homelessness, rent seeking behaviour, screwed up market etc

It's fundamentally alienating

I mean, I agree. But I've lived in other places and was even more homesick. Also London isn't as racist explicitly (at least) as other cities I've lived in.

Also for the first time ever in the UK I'm friendly/friends with neighbours and I like my neighbourhood. My main problem is I want to live in my home county on some level, I want to talk my other mother tongue, and I want nicer weather. In roughly that order of importance.

Sadly in exactly that order is also the impossibility of having a job in such a place.

As in much more likely I'll find a job with nicer weather, then a little likely (but not a lot, there's only a million Cypriots in the world) I'd find people I can talk to (hasn't really happened in years) and impossible to (find) work in Cyprus itself for me.

Thinking about it in such concrete terms at least helps me realise how much my dreams can and can't come true. I still agree with you. On some level, even though I'm so lucky to own a house, London isn't for me.

I can relate to so much of all of those. Take care of yourself.
