    The perfect country to make a bunch of money if you’re young, healthy, highly skilled, and have no kids. If you check all these prerequisites then you are making money like crazy. Just no time off, no flexibility, just working for the man. Everyone else though it’s very hard.

        Anywhere in the EU where it’s safe, sane and there’s a real social safety net. Just be prepared to learn a new language and culture, be humble and grateful.

            We’re situated geographically between the US (which is no longer a country we can consider as allies) and Russia, and we have 20% of the world’s surface freshwater (7% of the world’s renewable water flow)

            In the upcoming times of global instability and climate crisis, Canada’s definitely gonna be seeing some action.

              At the very least the neighbors who are positioned to do anything about the water issue also have the next highest proportion. The US has only slightly less, with the bulk shared between the two. Russia has more freshwater.
