Many reasons for which I'd like to move.

We did visit Vancouver B.C., it was beautiful. The weather was questionable, and the vibe was quiet. Still considered though.

The money you would spend in down payment, closing costs, property tax and insurance, maintenance could be better invested in something more tangible.
Truly considering this advice. Thank you.

I'd go. Just throw everything in the station wagon and head out on the heighway. When gas and money runs out, you'll know you've found the right place.

You sound like a real piece of work. Watch out for those chemtrails, bro.

LOL, Good one! Sometimes I wish I would not have bought so much "stuff", gotten an RV and move wherever I want. Right now some states have 1 covd case, I believe Montana, S. Dakota, go there and wait it out!

You only live once, do what you want, experience what you want while you are young and not tied down by kids and pets. Don’t buy anything here if you plan on living overseas, you need to be getting rid of things, not buying more things.

Right now the only 'easy' way to move to a European City is to teach English as a second or third language. I think it is around $3K to get certified and these companies also have high placement.

Less easy, get a good job with a global footprint and get transferred.

You can't just pack up and move to another country without a great deal of money.

FWIW, Vancouver is very expensive.

I think you have both passed the age limit for the military but blowing that avenue off isn't very smart of you.

Those states probably don’t test anyone... if you dont test someone then you cant have any cases.

I don't know that. They have a sparse population and lots of wide open spaces.
