I don't know about MOVE move, but I did see some lovely little houses in Mexico that are pretty affordable. Might make nice winter homes.

I would love to move to England from the US. Specifically London. I've loved my visits there and the people have been amazing.

I wish lol... I'd love to go somewhere not often considered. maybe Bulgaria or Kyrgyzstan. would be cool to see real world life there.

I did move within the EU for studying and for work and it was generally a good experience and I would do it again. Am German and have been in Ireland for studying and lived in the Netherlands and Slovenia for work (although never longer than for one year).

About 10 years ago, I moved to Japan and don't regret it. The only real downsides are that my family is on the other side of the world and the yen is doing poorly against the dollar. Well, that and being a US citizen trying to do something silly like use Japanese retirement vehicles outside of pension (iDECO and NISA) is basically impossible because everything is considered a PFIC by the US, but that's true of many things in other countries as a US citizen.

My hand might be forced someday.

Otherwise, I'd need a specific destination and reason to want to live there instead of "I don't want to live here." I make a point to not have "grass is greener" syndrome, sometimes to a fault.

In a heartbeat if I could afford it

Sure, but not because I dislike living in America. I just want to learn another language, and id do it best by immersing myself in that language.

Hmmm, I'd love to learn Portuguese or Chinese, so either place

I don't know how.

US Here, I'd like to but not having the skill sets right now makes for difficult to move to another country.

Which leads to another problem, if I do I leave my entire social network behind to a culture that I don't know and trying to live there. While I'm not against that, I realize that can be VERY isolating so not sure where the place I'd want to go right now.

Only if the living wage is far better or the job market in that country is better, so I can find another job if things don't work out as expected.

Moving the country means I have to sacrifice some benefits that I already have like my family, dog, and house. Would have said yes in a heartbeat years ago, but not now.

North Americans, I'm one of you. You have to leave for a while. You gain perspective.

Back in '07, I left. I was in Australia in '09 and some Aussies asked me, 'what's it like living over there?'

The only thing I could come up with at the time was " causes neuroticism.' It's so much worse now that we have social media, smartphones, and a penchant for duelling forms of misinformation.

What I learned is that there are many ways to live. There are lots of goals people have — and can have — many of them are quite modest: a safe place to live, love, and feel part of community. There are much worse daily experiences than those we hear about in the news, or see on TV, or read about it books. There is truly grinding poverty and privation that does not translate well into a novel or an article — readership is fickle. Yet, from those ashes, there is still joy, levity, and grace.

So, we residents of the most powerful economies must see outside of our bubbles. We must see, first hand, how we are duped into believing there is only one set of goals, one North American dream, one prestige, and one centre of power. When you spend enough years away, you just might forget about homeownership, career-building, and fretting over retirement. You might find that life is about living, about doing good work, and about being with people you care to pass the time with.

At least, that's what 12 years outside of NA taught me.

I have the choice of moving to Brazil, not Rio or São Paulo but to the north eastern part. I have too many family ties here in the US to make the move, but when I get older or if shit really goes off the rails here I will. I'll probably just buy a small shipping container and bring my irreplaceable stuff in it and send it down on a boat. Would it be expensive? Sure, but if I sell off what I won't be bringing it'll more than outweigh those costs. Or maybe I'll win the lottery, if I ever bought tickets.

Wouldn't mind moving somewhere where the government gives a fuck but I do think the transition would be difficult for me. I was the "gifted" kid growing up so now anything I'm not instantly good at (like learning a new language) can be a struggle.

Maybe once my college is paid off, if that ever happens lol

I'm likely to be forced to do so soon.

I would 100% pack up and move to either Finland or New Zealand, but that's about it. Unfortunately, both of them have exceptionally long quarantine times for animals, and I have multiple cats.

It's the best. I live abroad and highly recommend it.

Better food, no shootings, lots to see and learn.

I'd be happy with most countries in that situation.

Laos, Ireland, Portugal jump to mind.

SE Asian here. Currently doing my best to move myself and my family outta here to the west. Lemme know if any of you here got an IT job opening.

If I was to move away from my region, I'd consider other countries on that list.

My main problem is that I work in a healthcare role that doesn't really exist in other places besides the US

Circumstances today say no, but I would definitely consider it in the short-term, like maybe next year or so.

I've done that, I think I've found my place.

If things get bad enough, yes.

I've already done it once. I have a list of countries that I'm considering just in case I have to do it again

I do have that option and choose not to exercise it because it would take me too far away from my kids.
