Ask HN: How did you decide where to live?
Where are you currently living, what were the reasons for moving there and what are the pros / cons?
Also say you work remotely, are self-employed / working on a new idea or are (financially) retired and could live anywhere on this beautiful planet, where would you go?

- insta_anon 7y agoThe last 8 years I lived in Berlin, Germany as I got a job here and I am German. It has been a great time however I plan to leave Berlin and Germany next year to hopefully move to Australia. I really liked the time here in Berlin, however it is getting more and more expensive (especially rent), and more and more crowded. I also really dislike the weather and have the feeling that Germany in general is moving towards a suboptimal direction, therefore I am looking for new inspiration.
