This country is a great one to live in,you probably only realise this when your away on holiday tbh.
The issue isn't the country and it's many problems,but the place you live and the people around you,I would choose a more desirable place to live ie Ilkley/ Harrogate or Skipton as an example,but whilst shopping in Ilkley yesterday it seems a huge lottery win would only make this dream come true having looked at property prices in the area!.
