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?
So, Chicago? Except I bet your winters are a bit longer than they are in Chicago.
I think that hardest part wouldn’t be adjusting to the winter–I’m actually pretty okay with the kind of winter you describe–but the language. I hear that Finnish is very challenging for most people to learn to speak with any degree of fluency, unless they’re raised with it.
