I always wanted to live in a country that was totally different from America when I was a kid. I thought either India, China, or Japan back then, but now I’m not sure I’d want to live in any of them right now.

I guess I could go to nearby countries that don’t have global headlines like them say like Bangladesh, Thailand, or Indonesia, but I don’t really know anything about them.

I think the smart option would be somewhere in Europe, but I kinda want to get away or at least take a break from “western” culture.

I guess I can’t name a dream country, but somewhere with a totally different culture. I’d also want it to have a bunch of ruins and historical sites to visit. I’ve never seen anything older than like 150 years in person.

The kind of american that usually comes to Mexico is very nice, very welcome. Maybe the exceptions are the very loud and self absorbed ones that go to resort locations and act like they’re better than everyone there.

As long as people want to integrate and cooperate they are more than welcome.

Now, the sad part is the gentrification that comes with a lot of people moving and outpaying rent vs the locals. Now the average cost of living in Mexico city is about 50% higher than the average salary, and about 100% higher than the median salary. Another very negative thing is that now a lot of locals have to communicate in english because American people will come and not learn spanish over multiple years living here. There are zones where everything is in english now. It’s okay speaking english, it’s not okay expecting english from everyone.

So a few pointers:

1. Integrate, pay taxes, consume locally
2. Try and move into already gentrified places, avoid displacing more people
3. Push for social policy, increased affordable living spaces, invest in the country where you move into to improve the locals’ life

Be friendly, but that’s always

Anywhere cold, with decent social services, good shipping, and people that leave me alone on the whole.

As a member of the CAF, if the US Armed Forces are getting rid of LGBTQ folks, I would be proud to welcome them as my comrades in arms.

If I wasn’t locked into this contract with my house I would be applying for work programs in New Zealand on my way to citizenship. When Trump was elected, the first thought that went through my head was, I don’t like winter, so Canada and the Nordics are out. Europe is 0-2 for getting destroyed in World Wars and WW3 is heating up. Africa has its own problems right now, as does South America, and regardless of where you go in Asia it’s not looking good for WW3. So options were Central America or Oceania. I know passable amounts of Spanish, and lived in Central America for a while and I would definitely be OK going back. But if I’m going to move somewhere might as well be somewhere new.

I’ve lived in NYC for 20 years, I’d only give it up for Barcelona

Americans would do anything to not call a general strike.

Here in Canada we’re trying to catch America’s brain drain. We especially need doctors quite desperately.

Germany here, only the smart once please. Dont need the idiots. Already got enought here

Morocco or Jordan. Been trying to learn Arabic for a few years and would love to be forced to take it more seriously. Mostly can just read the letters. They are relatively safe countries that are in areas of the world I have studied extensively. Also means closer travel to many of the old cities I want to visit.

Californian - i want us, oregon, and washington to join canada.

Our country attracts a lot of American tourists, they mainly go to the beaches and national parks but I have seen them on my city sometimes

I’m fine with it, I highly suggest you learn Spanish since we are a Spanish-speaking country, and you can only see English on the tourist areas

Also if you want to become a citizen you need to do some sort of exam that for most foreign people is hard. Just so y’all know
