    Living in the Middle East is cool... but it's not that cool. :D
    I'm thinking of moving to another country, since I'm a webmaster and most of my work is online. I can go wherever I want to go! (That's the luxury of working online.) (Ofcourse I have 5 employees now so I'm going to have find another crew in the country I'm going to.)

    I've been all over the world, from Europe to Asia... To North America.

    These are the places I liked so far:.


    1. Japan
    2. California (USA) (Near Las Vegas) :D
    3. Germany
    4. Russia ( I haven't been there but should be very interesting.) :)


    Where would you advise me to go? :cool:

    Well, If I where you I wouldn't consider russia. Nothing against russian people, but the political situation (reporters geting killed etc) is bad, especially for people doing international business.

    Not sure whats its like as an Expat in Russia but I know its a beautiful place and very "interesting"... Not your typical Spain, France, Italy type country :)

    What is your criteria for moving to a country?

    Errm, i would recommend coming to the UK. You can have free healthcare using the NHS. Just claim you are from Bulgaria or Romania, that way they cant argue with you if you become ill.

    I would recommend germany out of the choice, but anywhere in the world, choose the UK.

    1. Very low crime rates in the countryside (also low in citys, but not that low)
    2. Free education for your children until they are 16 (if you plan to have kids, lol).
    3. Free healthcare
    4. A democracy that works, free voting, free press (within reason).
    5. Racism is nearly dead here.

    If you need help moving here, poke me via PM, i could help.

    I recommend any of the following places;

    Birmingham - 2nd largest city, already multicultural
    London - largest city
    Devon - Quiet, commuting is easy
    Cornwall (where i live) - Very busy during the summer, houses here are VERY expensive, nearly no crime (which makes the newspapers extremely boring...lol)

    Isn't it expensive to live in the UK though?

    Plus I will have to get used to driving on the other side of the road. :D

    There isn't a certain Criteria.

    Just somewhere you can relax and you can find anything you need.

    I have friends in Cali. But I am going to forewarn you that it is expensive!!! I am going with USA because there is more opportunity compared to Japan where alot of the opportunity is already taken (hence they are the most advanced technological country).
