    Not worrying about money or visa?

    … Like. Tierra del Fuego. Or one of those remote areas of Canada/Alaska

    Basically a cold, cold place that rarely sees heat. I detest heat.

    If money was no object, I’d stay here in Sweden, and I would probably buy a farm mannor in need of renovation.

    I’d have the main building carefully renovated to preserve the herritage but modernize it, I imagine the property having a stable or other large old storage barn, I’d gut as much of the interior as possible, keeping the exterior look and build a “man barn”, basically make it an entire man cave, I mean a combined area for hobbies, a small LAN party corner, air rifle sooting range, full racing sim, full flight sim, electronics workbench, a separate room for dirtier hobbies like wood/metal working with separate ventilation, but with a glass wall between the areas, top floor of the barn would jave several guest rooms with a separate external access, I would also dig an underground tunnel between the mannor house and the barn, with a deep cellar for extra storage

    In a different part of this same city. I have children who have lives that I cannot break by moving away from here just now.

    If I am being realistic, probably Berlin, Brussels, or Paris (maybe also Frankfurt). Specifically these cities, not anywhere else in the associated countries

    I’m using the following metrics (and possibly some personal bias):

    • A highly developed region that is internationally well-connected and has a strong passport… which leaves us with parts of Europe and some Asian countries. I’m personally excluding UK because of Brexit
    • OP didn’t mention that “culture weren’t an issue”, so sadly most of Asia/Scandinavia/Central Europe are out due to difficulty for outsiders to integrate… and among the rest, choices are limited to large, diverse cities that are easy to integrate
    • A place that is resilient to climate change, so the entirety of the Netherlands is out (or maybe I just hate NL)

    The conclusion is that I should really get aggressive at learning French and German now just in case

    Ireland is looking nice, or Scotland if they ever decide to free themselves from the Empire.

    Spain is also near the top.

    My own country (the UK).

    That’s a weird response to the question, given that I do currently reside here. However, I don’t feel like I’m doing much living. There’s so much more that I could be doing if I wasn’t constantly struggling for money

    Ireland, hands down. I’ve been twice, and both times I’ve been absolutely enamored with the country. I’m from the Midwest, so a lot of it is probabky just the differences and the fact I’m on vacation. But the castles and walkabke cities, and rolling hills, and so much green instead of brown or yellow! I’m also a fantasy nerd, so I’m a sucker for anything that can have a medieval spin.
