Every time someone asks me if I ever regret becoming an expat, my answer is always the same: Nope, not one bit.  There would be questions about how can I leave everything behind, language barriers, culture shock, and the list goes on.  Since I became an expat, I discovered that it’s all about your mentality and perspective.  If you view the opportunity to leave your home country as a positive move, your whole experience and perspective changes for the better.
