Yeah, yeah, “muh blog post”, but seriously, myself and A LOT of others, in the LDSAU Reddit community are thinking about getting out, before things in Aus get much worse.
Some already have. I know they went to Thailand, Bali and the Middle East. Those places aren’t for me, though.
So I’ve been thinking about Poland or Latin America, mostly. It’s fairly straightforward (in normal times) for an Australian of my age group to move to certain other countries on a Working Holiday Visa, at least for a year. If “my country” even LETS me leave, at least…
So… Hypothetically, I know that I can go to Ecuador, Chile, Argentina, Uruguay, Poland, Hungary, Greece, Cyprus, Slovakia, Slovenia, the Czech Republic, or a couple of the Baltic states…
Some of those are obviously more appealing than others. I’m still thinking Poland or Slovakia, quite honestly. But if other people have thoughts on this… Fire away!
Obvious this isn’t, initially at least, a long term move, but if Australia actually collapses while I am/we are all gone, then I’m sure I can probably apply for asylum or whatever, lol…
No degree, to clarify. Unfortunately…
Which… Doesn’t help me, I know. 😑
Also, I find it somewhat bizarre that you guys have Westfield shopping centres, just as ubiquitously as we do here…
Westfield is an Australian company which was founded by a Jewish Slovak-Hungarian refugee, who somehow ended up essentially founding the Australian football federation, and then became one of Australia’s richest and most corrupt “powerful” men…
Globalisation is weeeeiiirrrddd… 😑
I never heard the name Westfield. We have German supermarkets.
I meant to reply to this comment re Westfield in Poland, but it somehow ended up in the wrong spot on this thread… 🤦🏻♂️
Stupid computer. 😑
Anyway, see below/above, depending on what device you are using, and where it appears for you!
There are "galerie handlowe" but I just have no idea who owns them honestly. Presumed also Germans, maybe Americans.
The coronamaniac health minister is dedicated to bankrupt then as much as just any business.
Then the literal-trade unions respond to this by proposing that instead we should do more jab policies. Madness everywhere.
