Finding My Spot on the Globe
9 years ago
Hello all,
I would like to live abroad, but I haven't yet decided on my destination. I need your help.
I want to leave because I hate my country of origin, its people and I do not see myself living there.
I have decided to leave when I was around 11 years old.
I have a dual citizenship: French and the one of my country of origin.
I speak three languages-English, French and my mother language.
I am planning to leave with a minimum of 2000 Euros, so at first I will probably rent a very small apartment, get a job(minimum wage), and move on from there(the math works), my parents may add additional money.
The French citizenship opens most of Europe (I also have a family in France) but taxation is high. In the Americas, Canada is an option (I have family there but without education it is hard to move there), besides that the Americas are of no interest to me. Africa is mainly poor but I am open to suggestions from your side. Asia and Oceania are also not of much interest but again I am open to suggestions. I have no problem learning a fourth language but it is important that I would be able to get along in the first few months with English or French. I do not have future aspiration right now but I want a simple life, not necessarily an urban industrialized country. Good people good view and good books should do it for me.
Even though I am still young I am leaning towards "working to live attitude"-small jobs, no stress, flexibility, being able to enjoy life and travel so higher education is still in question mark for me (not the highest priority). I am an atheist if it is of any importance, if the country is not imposing religion on the people that it is ok for me.
So what do you think?
