 I got this feeling my own dear country, Europe in general, are going down the drain. I want to flee this decadent hive of scum and idiocy. Where to? Requirements: A civilized place, which does not wage war lightly, where not everyone and everything is in debt. Somewhere where people anspire to be something more than a consuming piece of lard watching television. Singapore perhaps?  | ||

In northern parts of scandinavia there are places where the landscape is beatiful, people are happy, towns are small and you can do something else than watch tv. This. I might just be really outdated but I'm atleast oblivous to this so called crisis or w/e. Scandinavia representing! | ||

Just interesting to see that a lot of people are thinking the same thing no matter what country they live in. Also, I'm surprised that nobody has mentioned Singapore. Extremely clean and modern, except they don't speak English D: | ||

My mother has an excellent understanding of the english language and she has only lived there for about 20 years (born). There are a lot of Malaysians and Chinese, Indian etc. But everyone can more or less speak english | ||

South Korea and Japan are other countries you can consider if you got a basic command of Japanese or Korean. The culture there is phenomenal and you won't find yourself without a thing to do, but bad side is that cost of living is high as well, everything there is expensive. | ||

 It's crowded and un-free here, and unless you're rich you can only live in densely populated, polluted stretches of concrete TTmadnessman: Japan seems rather crowded to me, and I hear the language is hard to master. Tell me something about singapore if you please Scandinavia seems good too, it's only... I'm an absolute nightmare on skis :p But perhaps that can be mended. How tough are you on immigrants these days? ^^ I'll look into it | ||

What do they speak there then? :p Guess that goes to show what I know of the world Concerning the feeling of pessimism, I don't think armageddon is at hand, or clan wars, drug wars or race riots ot whatever, I just don't like the general mean-spiritedness, if that's a word. | ||

Did I mention the abundance of natural resources? Last month 90 k jobs where created in this country of 30 millions inhabitants... We didn't even feel the economic recession here. Canada sounds good too! Thank you everyone for giving me some hope | ||
