I never suggested you were. Only an idiot would support Brexit and you are not one, obviously.

I almost had an amazing job working for Radio Free Europe(just like the REM song) in Prague a few years ago but Trump cut off the funding. Painfully watched this dream job slip through my fingers. No taxes and 6 figure paycheck. Free flights home a few times a year. We went to Prague for 2 weeks to scope it out. (Best trip of our lives)

To complete the story, we would love to get the fuck out of this country as well.

My wife and I discussed bugging out. She's an EU citizen, so it would be easy for her and the kids. A bit tougher for me, but doable. It was 100% our plan if that orange pos would've won the election. I would choose Spain. My wife would choose Estonia.

We had the conversation about where to go if it got bad too. Never nailed down a place, but New Zealand was high on the list, disregarding the fact that theyd never let us dirty americans in :D

Getting in to a country and being able to work there is the hardest part.
I qualify in a couple ways for the top tier of their "wanted skills visa" so i might have a chance. But as much as america sucks, hopefully it will suck less in the upcoming future, because moving anywhere is a massive pain in the ass

I always think having high level qualifications gets you into most countries, if you're under 45/50 and have postgrads the world is pretty open.

I just think, "who would hire me over another European (or other country/continent)?" I only speak English and broken Spanish. My wife is the bilingual, multi-national person with all the degrees. She really should be paid more.

Where in Spain? Been all over that bitch.

Anywhere honestly. Climate and language are a big factor for me. Barcelona would probably be my first choice. Great weather and beaches.

Estonia would be fine with me for a short period, but it is so far north that you end up having really short days. I'm ok with the cold. I just can't deal with short days.
