Well clearly living in an African tuliphole is bad.
But most "Western" (for want for a better word) countries have advantages and disadvantages. Depends what you want.Hard Brexit now!

ISTM though that I have 2 modes of living, and they are distinct" "European/city" where I want facilities, galleries, concerts, restaurants, etc, and other countries nearby; and "big country" where I want space and freedom, never mind stuff, I'll make my own life. I wonder if a 2-mode life might be best, but am fearful of trying to persuade others to join me.
I'm working on us moving to Scottish Highlands, with weekly commute to NL/Germany etc: that might do it. Best of both worlds? Some people use that as a pejorative term for a greedy person's wishes, I call it a worthwhile ambition.Comment

I am currently recruiting a team if there are any testers on the way to Melbourne. Can't do sponsorships though.
