If you had to move to another country, where would you go, ERA?

Canada would be my first choice if only because it would be closer to my family than traveling overseas.
I've always been really interested in Japan as well, but the language barrier would be rough to just up and move there. I'd want to spend some trips there and learn some ahead of time before moving there.

Japan. Only country where I don't feel like I actively experienced racism, although the Nigerians in Roppongi can get fucked. It was actually cool being black in Japan.
Second would be Belgium, since my girlfriend is from there and convincing her to move to the US was hell.

Personally would love to raise my daughter in Spain for a significant number of years. I don't expect this to actually happen as my other half isn't for it. Might get away with spending 2 months of a few summers with her over there, idk if they have kid courses over the summer I could put her in.
Living in Québec (Canada), if I ever move out it will be Denmark, Sweden or Noway. Getting a bit old to learn languages tho, I guess. Might be hard.
I live in Greece. If you Îżnly take climate and people into consideration:
Israel, Western Turkey, Cyprus, Southern Italy, as long as the place I live has sea nearby. Alexandria, Egypt too.
Australia as well, because of relatives.
Have lived in Germany and UK so I would not mind living there but I am not used to the climate.

Idk why but Atlanta has some great hot wings lol. Any other type of chicken I'd prefer the Korean version, but I need those those wings every once in a while....
i visited and love many corners of the world but i don't think i'd want to live in a place that didn't speak english and their primary language. i'm too old to try and learn a new language.
1. australia or new zealand. from the outside looking in they seem like chill cool countries.
2. canada. i love snow.

Canada.
I've been there a few times, and already have friends that live there, so I wouldn't be starting from scratch. Plus it is close enough that I could cross the border to the US to get stuff that isn't available in Canada.
I'd hate the winters there though.

This, probably. I live in a lovely part of the Westcountry and away from the madding crowd and the worst of English 'culture'... but, I hate what we have become overall as a nation. Ireland seems like a great place, and it's particularly stunning along the west coast, which is where I would choose.... and it's still in the EU. It could be a case of 'the grass is greener' though.
Japan has a lot of appeal, as it's so very different, but the language barrier would be a huge stumbling block as would the urbanisation. I'd certainly love to visit one day.
A big issue for me is family, now that we have a child... it's hard to move away from her grandparents, and as they get older, we'll have to take care of them. So I think moving to another country is not really feasible for us between now and like 2050 (and then it'll be "well.. our kids are in America..").
But if I had like my own private Lear jet that could jetset around the globe ... I'd love to move to:
- New Zealand
- Australia
- Ireland
- Germany
- Northern Italy
- Belgium
- Sweden
For cities in Canada:
- Vancouver
- Toronto
...
I'd be up to move just about anywhere if we could

Fellow UKer here, and have also thought a lot about this. Ideally I'd love to live in Sweden, however due to language barrier I am also more than happy to live in Canada!
That's because you Finnish are different
J/K, I love Finland, only country in the world when you can canoe for miles in (relative) wilderness and stumble upon a public sauna to use after a hard day of rowing. Absolutely winning country. But the whole of Scandinavia, I couldn't deal with your winters. I'll stick to visiting in the summers.
I've stayed in Switzerland for a while and it's bonkers if you enjoy nature, but we had a hard time really connecting with the Swiss. Could be us, but I think Swiss people can be hard to really get to know.
If there's one country I'd love to live for a while, it's Italy. Winning combination of nature, climate, culture, food, variety.. I just don't speak the language that well. But really, Italy is something different (for me).
I also wouldn't mind hanging out in Oregon for a while.
I would prefer to stay in US since I love this country and the earning potential for my career is highest here. But if I was forced to emigrate, then Canada, UK and NZ would be on the top of my list. I am sure I would have no trouble gaining entry with my career. I would prefer to live in an English speaking country. Western EU countries don't sound bad either.
Definitely somewhere in Scandinavia.

Taiwan. Low cost of living, amazing food, the HSR lets you visit just about anywhere in country in a single day & air fare is cheap to Japan/Korea/Singapore/etc.
New Zealand would be awesome, would be closer to my wife's family there.
I work for a company in Austria, and I've visited there twice so far and enjoyed it. Would have to learn German though.
Canada I have extended family in, and if I moved to Ontario I'd be close to family on my side.

Ireland, most likely. My current company has a branch there and I'm looking to relocate once the pandemic ends. No idea where I'd like to live long-term, though.
You'd manage. English is basically a mandatory language to learn in school (in the whole?) nordics. Tho it's not like everyone's an A student. But as you live there you'd learn the local language at least to some extent.
I once went to Scotland and it didn't feel like I was coping with my English. The dialect was something else. Loved the place.
I'm really thinking about moving to Spain for a year-ish. Not something that might happen in the near future but at some point maybe. That or Germany.
Japan. I lived there for 3.5 years already, have family in law there, love the food, and expect that with the declining population that cost of living should be stable if not decreasing over the next few decades. It's also safe and convenient to get around in.
