Yeah, I thought the UK would probably be easiest...
Though Scotland is fucked, evidently, so avoid their grip, I suppose? What do you think of the situation in Wales, at the moment..?
Also, thoughts on "Eastern" Europe..?
Poland, Hungary, Czech Respublika, Slovakia are all options...
Also Portugal and/or South America. Obviously harder for me, as I don't speak any of those languages (Spanish, French, German and Japanese, I do, but not the languages belonging to those countries I listed), and obviously all considerably poorer than the UK (maybe not Czech, but the rest), but... Could be a better option. I'm no exactly "thriving" here, anyway, so... Being paid at least SOMETHING, in a middle-income country, might, might be better than earning pretty much nothing, in the 2nd-most expensive country in the world, rn... :-/
I'm not sure they would let me move there permanently (at least, very easily, at present...).
But if I could meet and marry a girl, there, and get residency that way, I would be more than willing to stay...
Or Poland. Or quite literally anywhere in that part of the world. I'd even be willing to live in most of Ukraine.
Money is not really a concern, for me, as long as I can live a decent life, there...
Though my impression/understanding is that most women east of the Oder (German-Polish/German-Czech border) only really want to marry an ideally rich foreign man so that they can get out of their respective countries, rather than staying there, so... Eh.
At least that's how it was even a few years back, so I hear...
Can't say I haven't thought about this, extensively, at the very least!! 😅
Not every country is open to every passport holder (obviously), so that's why I limited my choice, largely, to those I mentioned...
Interestingly, if you have a NZ passport, there's many, many more options, lol...
I've been thinking about this for YEARS, though. Ever since fucking up my exchange chances at Uni, ha. So... Yeah. That's why I'm interested in your thoughts, I guess.
Also stand a chance of getting a student visa to Sweden (yeah yeah), or possibly a teaching job in Japan, but both of those are more complicated/time-consuming (plus $$$) processes...

Also, welcome back!!
Hungary is standing steadfast by their anti-LGBT propaganda laws, so maybe you can scout it out and see if it's worth a permanent move there?
