I'm just venting, so if I bore you, just skip this post

Ok, so life has it's ways of throwing you opportunities/chalenges when you least expect it...
Someone dear to me has shown up back into my life (after 4 years) with an interesting job oportunity.. in latin america.. :shock:
I've moved around ever since the age of 11 (emigrated a couple of times), and currently living in France (I'm not french)
Languages have never been a problem for me, so that is not the biggest of my worries, what I'm worried about is upheaving my life again.
The job in question is similar to what I do at the moment, except with a lot better conditions. (food, lodging, expenses and salary)
(and of course the slight fact that it's halfway around the globe...)
I could chuck all my life belongings in storage, and bugger off to another country again. (and have dreamed of doing this often!)
But when the opportunity presents itself as it does now, in the shape of a pretty solid proposition.. it scares the bejesus out of me..
I've been told by many that I'm "instable" in the fact I don't commit long term on anything. (renting, short-term contracts, relationships etc..)
My current situation is pretty "stable", I just moved to a new apartment, have a decent job (2 years in, nothing great), good friends, something most people yearn for..
But am I truly happy? That's the "big" question, and I've no idea. :?:
My friends are all popping out kids, getting married, and buying houses.. and I'm just that plonker that's still a "vagrant" and can't settle down :?
Nothing is certain, since I've only just applied for the position. (I managed to gather enough courage for that!),
but from what I've heard, I'm a pretty good candidate.
Some of my family & friends will go ape (Hi Mum!), and other will encourage me, but in the end, I have to decide myself.
Has anyone else had to make a life changing decision, and how did you go about it? :roll:
My brain is hurting, and the 2 people that can talk sense into me are not available. :x
Oh and on topic, and what's available shaving wise in Latin America?
