I would move but not sure where. Maybe New Zeland? Maybe Sweden.
But where I am an't too bad I guess.... Could be worse... >.>

Exactly this.
I have family in a number of countries other than the one I'm in now. If I could choose one of those? Absolutely. If I don't get a choice and end up somewhere where I have no contacts and don't know the language and don't do well in the climate and the culture there is very alien? Then nope. Absolutely not.

I did just that XD
Granted, it wasn't a country I totally hated either and I am the one who chose it but I didn't have any contact, didn't know the language, the climate is killing me (Summers especially are hell, I keep on getting sick from the heat), obviously had no idea what the culture was like except for what's shown in anime.
And I made it. Even got myself a husband in the process XD

Though that's probably not for everyone and even I am still surprised at how many things out of character for me I managed to do.

That's pretty brave of you!
And you're proof it *can* be done.

I just wouldn't do it on someone else's behalf, even if they were paying me. I'd only do it on my own behalf, for my own reasons, when I could have some choice.

Not sure if brave is the right word. I'd lean more on crazy. XD

When I chose to move I was in such a state that I'd have been willing to move anywhere.
The money would have been a nice bonus.

That sounds like a rough period -I hope things are better for you now :qh:

Did you end up liking where you're at now? On the whole? I know no place is perfect, of course, but just on balance.

Yup they are. Since my problem were mainly people I needed to get away from for my own peace of mind. moving solved the problem.

And yes I'm liking. There many things I don't like but I'm lucky enough I can choose to avoid them so it's fine.

Definitely. I would probably travel the world on a good bit of the money, and eventually settle in England where my grandmother's family lives. [would I even be allowed to live there? o.O] I'd send my family money so they can come see me.
If I couldn't live in England, I'd try moving to Ireland, Wales, or I guess Sweden. Pretty sure Sweden would take me. xD
