And it's official!

I went back to Immigration Tower today to pick up our PR cards. I walked across the bridge at the tower to stand over Gloucester Road and just savour the moment, and get a picture of HK - my new permanent home! What does that really mean? Well it means, for me, for the first time in my life, I actually 'belong' somewhere where I've made my home. I'm originally Pakistani but I've never lived there as I was born and brought up in Dubai!

BUT no expat, no matter how long they've lived there, can ever 'belong' to the UAE, and some don't want to, but for my sister GadgetKid and me, it's our home and we can't belong there :(

So I'm just rejoicing that I have somewhere that I can live independently of a father, husband or job! Although I'm definitely keeping my husband and his job ;-)
