Why?
My wife who is Japanese and I who am part Costa Rican and part Cuban born in the USA are planning to move to Japan at some point. Mostly atheist nation, super polite people, state of the art everything, little to no crime, super clean, universal healthcare, etc.
Thinking like a refugee - it has to be a place that would accept me as a permanent resident
English speaking is preferred -- but Spanish as a backup.
I haven't found the ideal yet -- but let's keep on looking!
f
Nowhere else. I've lived in Japan, New Zealand, Australia. Visited England and Scotland, and most of Europe. USA is the place to be, even now with how it is collapsing.
What did you find not so great about Japan?. I’ve been there about 10 times for weeks and months at a time but have never lived there for an extended period. My wife who is Japanese and I are thinking of leaving my well to do business here in the USA and move to Tokyo. Just wondering what you encountered that wasnt better than the USA ?
Canada would be my first choice. Then England, Germany, Switzerland, Denmark, Sweden. I am half German and mom's family came from Germany and Switzerland. I've lived in Germany. My dad's side of the family is English.
That's kind of a non question for me I'm an agoraphobic homebody you can't get me to leave the county I live within 20 minutes of where I lived when I was 12
Greenland or Denmark or Sweden.
I would love to live in england scotland or wales but with brexit and Theresa May it's just becoming america with tea
I've worked all over the planet.
I'd choose either Buenos Aires or Sydney.
England (miss the Cottswalds!), Canada (still within arms reach), Portugal (great climate, friendly people), Germany (felt at home & had a great time there).
Can't get my money in Cuba... lived in 3 European countries and liked a lot all of them.... Somewhere near a party town in the Mediterranean Sea... any of the Baleares Islands.... though I am mellow out enough to rent me a flat in Buenos Aires just for the Tango... just the Tango. "Assasination Tango" anyone? Robert Duval in real life married his tango teacher in the movie. Little known fact about him... he likes dancers, so he is alright with me.
Great movie, Great town. I loved working there.
@bigpawbullets Damn lucky you... Of all the spanish accents... just talking women... Argentina, Colombia, Cuba, Andalucia.
There are several. The first two on my list are because of proximity and advantages I have in them:
