RE: The World Is Still Not Ready

Hi @stortebeker, nice to see you! Your comment just proves what I was saying and I'm grateful to hear that from someone who spoke to people who are interested in nomading.

While many people say that this could suddenly get better if the masses moved there, it is really not a convincing factor.

I tend to agree with you. Just because of a sudden interest and massive moves, things won't change drastically. There's a lot needed to see significant improvement in infrastructure.

Countries like Croatia or Hungary are considered too regulated and expensive.

I don't know about Croatia, but you're right about Hungary, I know that from trusted sources. I could live there as long as I want without any visa but I don't want to.

I checked out Kaliningrad / Königsberg and seems to be a nice place, but as you say, the political situation has to get better.

It's sad though, that there are so many obstacles and quality of life is getting worse.

Sort:  

I know... I tried Hungary once in 2003-5 and then again in 2010-12. The first time it was a vibrant and very lucrative experience with incredible potential. The second time around I realized that I may just as well go back to the stale comfort of Germany, and still end up with more money.

As for Kaliningrad, just recently, when Finland joined NATO, it went from being a strategically important and highly valuable place for Russia to an expensive liability. Plus, there is quite a bit of a popular movement towards independence, so who knows... Russia may just let them go. We'll watch and see.
