Advice needed - moving to another country

Hello all! I have a dilemma and its a hard one. I'm realizing that, as I write, this is hard to explain so I'll start at the beginning!

I graduated from university last July. In my final year however, I ended up meeting the most amazing and awesome girl I've met. Words, like awesome and amazing, simply understate how great this girl is (even though I just used those two words in the previous sentence lol).

We became good friends over the course of the year. She knows I like her, but I've never had the courage to make a move - I've only ever asked out one girl and she rejected me pretty badly. Anyways, this girl is from Cyprus and now she's living in Thailand, working as a teacher. Since last July I've been working on and off, nothing permanent, and I was thinking of doing my Masters this September to aid my career. However, recently I've been thinking more and more about moving to Thailand. At the moment I'm in contact with a school in Thailand regarding a science teacher vacancy. The salary is low, but then again the cost of living in Thailand is low as well.

I've always wanted to live and work aboard for a few years and there's nothing keeping me here in the UK - I'm single (obviously lol), don't have any dependents (children, relatives, etc), no mortgage, no real debt at all except income-contingent student debt, no real friends (most have moved away). And I've realized I could always do my Masters afterwards.

This is not just a relationship/dating/love issue, but it does play a part. I want nothing more than to be with this girl, but I'm not just thinking of moving to Thailand to be with her - teaching science and living aboard are two important issues as well.

So I guess my question is, even though I'll obviously end up making the final decision, what are everyone's opinions? Is this a great idea? Or is it really idiotic? Would anyone else take this leap?

Gracias de antemano (Thanks in advance)
