I'm well aware; it cannot possibly be worse than where Hong Kong will be, is all I'm considering. Besides, the Brexit brain drain might actually work in my favour... ;)
That said, I'm open to other options; for example, I really liked Berlin as a tourist, but need to research more on what it's like to actually live there.
- rorykoehler 6y agoIt's great. I had to move back after 4 years in Singapore. This time for good.
- dmix 6y agoThere's an excellent BBC show (1 episode), "Make Me a German" about a UK couple moving to Germany and it explains a great deal about day-to-day German culture, including raising kids there and work culture. I personally like plenty about the culture shown (hard work, raising kids in alternative education outdoors, strong sense of community, their obsession with efficiency but liberal vacation time/work benefits), but I could see it turning some people off. Also of note they went to Nuremberg and he took a job at a pencil factory, which may be more traditional Germany than you'd experience in Berlin or other urban areas. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FYghC4DXRC8 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FYghC4DXRC8
- nix23 6y agoWhy not considering Switzerland? Have relatives that moved to Berlin and they are not happy anymore there. Denmark/Norway/Iceland/Sweden should also be on your radar also Netherlands/Belgium.
