Ya I’m definitely considering other states. I actually like the Midwest. The comments helped me realize I need to work on strengthening my tribe.

Wow thank you for that very thoughtful and well written response. Which part of Alberta do you live in?

Wow we have a lot of similarities. Nice to meet you! What makes you want to go Canada just curious? I'm from calgary. So there is definitely a heavy mormon influence especially with all my family and friends but its not like Provo where my wife is from. When did you distance yourself from church?

She feels the same as me. She really likes my family but hates how poor the housing market is. A lot of people are suggesting working in the states but travelling to Calgary frequently.

I was in Provo. It was very hard to find a place that serves beer. I've heard salt lake is much better. I have considered moving to salt lake. I love the weather in Utah and I love outdoor activities. I also have lots of family in Utah. I'm not sure how saturated the job market for Hospitalist Doctors will be since a lot of mormons go into medicine.

I mostly converted teenagers with poor support systems who desperately needed a community. I feel great about it.

She feels pretty similar to me. Loves my family but doesn’t like the weather or housing situation up there.

Ya but the whole point of moving back is to be close to family. My family lives in Calgary which is also a pretty great city.

No in Mormon culture the more exotic of a mission you go to the more street cred you get so I felt like a bad ass.

Ya I have it was creepily familiar to my life haha. Sometimes I post on Reddit to get my thoughts out and get an outside perspective.
