So another thread ( https://lemmy.world/post/17746018 ) got me wondering… How many people would want to move to another country?
Just to provide a concrete scenario, let’s assume that in your current country you (magically) have a decent-ish job. They open up offices in another country of your choosing, and you have the option of moving there and work for an equivalent living wage.
They’re able to get visas set up (however improbable that may be) for you and any family, but you have to go through the process of finding housing, physically moving your belongings and anything else you need to set up.
What countries would you take the offer to move to, if any?
I always wanted to move to Sweden. My grandfather was born there and I have always loved visiting.
It was a nice country but it’s getting poor and has many problems now due to unlimited immigration the last few decades. Much violence and murders now.
The classic Sweden that I grew up in is gone. But it’s still better than USA of course. If you avoid the big cities, it’s still a bit like it used to be though.
The best country in the Nordics is now Norway I would say.
