On the point of voting or not; I'm going to vote in the USA presidential elections forever, as I feel that we all have to suffer the results of their elections and I still have property, family and my Social Security pension there (quite a different situation than yours) so I am directly affected.

I hope you get to follow your dreams; it would be nice to have the possibility of meeting you someday.
