This is a post by someone else in another place but it's worthy of the wider readership of the general forum.
Assuming you're now in your own country, and something unbearable happened - and you decided to leave your country and start up in another one, as a mixture of protest, escape, resignation, personal renewal and determination...
Where would you go?
Why do you choose that country?
What would you have to offer that country?
What would you expect to be the problems you'd face there?

Rose: Wherever we go, whatever we do,
we're gonna go through it together.
We may not go far, but sure as a star,
wherever we are, it's together.
Wherever I go I know he goes.
Wherever I go I know she goes.
No fits, no fights, no feuds
and no egos, Amigos, together!
Through thick and through thin,
all out or all in.
And whether it's win, place or show.
With you for me and me for you,
we'll muddle through whatever we do.
Together, wherever we go.

{ .... back on topic ....}
Where would you go?
.... Either to (1) New Zealand or (2) Sweden.
Why do you choose that country?
.... (1) because it's like home, but without the political dramas; (2) because it doesn't seem to have a greed-is-good agenda and bought politicians, and my mother's family are there.
What would you have to offer that country?
.... take the fifth on this one, can't say without sounding like someone I'd rather not sound like.
What would you expect to be the problems you'd face there?
.... none really, except learning to talk like a local - a much bigger task for my second choice. 🙂
