I was thinking of this thread while I did some other things. Here are my thoughts....
I live in an area that gets lots of tourists. Folks come here, love the weather etc and decide to pack up an move here. What they don't stop to consider is that life on vacation is not day-to-day life. They think that when they move here life is going to be one long vacation. Thing is life goes on trash has the be taken out, laundry done, gotta work to support yourself etc. They also aren't here long enough to discover the down side of living in the area - horrid traffic congestion, heat and humidity that sap your energy, HURRICANES(!), sky high electric bills from A/C to cope with the heat, mosquitoes big enough to carry off small dogs... you get the picture. There are trials to living anywhere. It isn't all rainbows and sunshine.
I believe you are experiencing something similar with this man. He is very different from the men you've been with before. That's exciting. He is offering you a very different way of living than you have known. That too is exciting.
I'm going to suggest something I would suggest even if you didn't have to move across an ocean to be with him. Take some time to truly get to know this person. Maybe find a job near him and get your own place to live. A month is not long to know someone. Give yourself a chance to really get to know him before you make life altering decisions like having children with him.
