There are lots of government-sponsored programs, like the Peace Corps and JET, designed for Americans to work for nonprofits or teach abroad - in developing countries (ranging from Lesotho to Armenia) for the former, and English teaching in Japan for the latter. Many people use agencies to teach English in China, often for better living standards than they'd have at home.
There's funded scholarship programs (Fulbright, Erasmus, Marshall, etc.) designed for masters/PhD study abroad. Many Americans are going this route, especially with funding risks at home. All of these often have means of support, such as free housing and/or flights, making them attractive options for those who have nothing binding them down at home.
"Geomaxxers" support moving to South East Asia or South America for better chances with women. LOL. Sexpats aren't anything new, but they're much more common since mediocre incomes in the US could allow for luxury living in Thailand or the Philippines - plus the advent of "work anywhere"/WFH. There's r/AmerExit, dedicated for "American expats" (migrants) to share their experiences (mostly to Europe).
There's Null who lived in Ukraine and Serbia. There's Keffals, who moved from Canada to Ireland during the Kiwi Special Military Operation. Jews have the option to make Aliyah, or basically move to Israel and become citizens hassle free. Russia allows you to gain citizenship after 5 years there (or serving in the army LMAO!), a valid avenue for our Dood:
There're also people who are just insane. One of my friends from college spent 2 summers in Kenya, and said he loved the experience. I'm sure one of the above programs could turn his Chocolate Fever into lucrative employment, who knows. The world's big, and the US passport is strong.
I think it's fascinating, since there's people on this site in countries like Vietnam and Russia and then there's people in America who get paid to live in those countries. I spent a summer on an exchange research program in Taipei, and loved the experience (mostly surviving off Pocari Sweat, street market fried chicken, and 65F AC). I would absolutely visit again, but I can't see myself staying for long unless I had a job since I'm not a very touristy person.
What would it take for YOU, dear sneeder, to consider leaving home? How long would you stay, unless you'd move permanently? Also just a thread to talk about moving countries generally
