Somewhere it only snows a handful of times a year. I'm not about the cold life.
Hey. If yanks get get to Canada, and get in, I'm sure we'd love to have ya.
There's a catch: if you're not fleeing persecution, you're gonna need a skill. It bumps up your score on the big calculation they do, and if you can keep doing the skilled work you may one day afford to live somewhere other than winnipeg.
Dream country? Monaco, lol. But more realistically either Canada, Australia or New Zealand
New Zealand is quite lovely; I could afford it and I’m on the expedited list of specialties. Can’t leave the kids, though, so I’m stuck watching the ship go down.
Kenya. I have friends there, which would help.
I’d definitely be the obvious foreigner, given that I’m pale and ginger, but that’s worked in my favor when traveling before.
I’m also supposing here that there wouldn’t be quite so many other American expats to compete with.
If I could live in no country I’d be so happy. But the only place to do that is a desert in Africa and my natural habitat is temperate forests.
So I guess Canada.
Canada if possible. My family only speaks English, but willing to "do the thing" to fit in even if that's learning a new language.
I'd also be ok with UK, Australia, New Zealand.
last places would be Germany, Poland, Italy, Spain, Japan. I know living in these places would be an extreme challenge for my family so that's why they're bottom of my list.
Canada, I'm a citizen there as well
Dream? Hard to say since I've never been outside the US. Maybe Ireland?
Reality? Pretty much anywhere that I would have the opportunity to make a living.
Canada, Iceland, New Zealand, or Germany, in no particular order. Then again, of those 4, I've only been to Canada.
Even though things aren't going as they should, I wouldn't be likely to leave. I don't agree with a lot of what's happening here, but there's no nation I know that supports more of my beliefs and lifestyle than the USA. Plus, my family, my friends, and my loved ones are all here. Leaving would mean losing them, and that's totally unacceptable.
I don’t want to start over. I’d rather die.
Maybe Scotland. If they could fully separate from the dead weight down south.
I'd be in Aukland now if I hadn't met my partner between deciding in 2021 and the election. She is a refugee and can't leave or she'll lose status. She is a political enemy of her government for advocating for democracy there. Did a phone interview and everything.
