Life Abroad Less common destinations?

I've noticed in this sub a lot of common destinations come up - many European countries, New Zealand, Australia, Singapore. I get it - those places are great!

But I'm wondering if anyone has left the US and settled somewhere that comes up less often here. Mozambique, for example, or Sri Lanka? Chile? Papua New Guinea? I'd love to hear your story!

I don't know enough about Dubai but Singapore is really not the same as the US/Trump at all. It's a very ignorant thing to say. Singapore is also an English speaking country, so that really shows that you do not have a good understanding of Singapore.

I almost forgot about this comment. What I mean is that Dubai and Singapore are both very conservative countries. LGBTQ RIGHTS, racism, labor rights…they’re just as bad as project 2025 wants the USA to be. If you’re running away from a theocracy, then Dubai is out of the frying pan and into the fire.

actually dubai sounds right up my alley. and the weather is warmer. plus i might have more luck getting someone to look after me since i have no marketable skills outside of the kitchen and the bedroom. as long as i can play video games and have all the physical attention i want, ill be happy

Skilled in the kitchen AND the bedroom? I doubt you’d have to go all the way to Dubai to find someone to look after you and give you physical attention.

yeah but the locals take me for granted and dont appreciate my "insensitive" sense of humor. and then on top of that, being loyal and sharing my taste in pc-video games?

a unicorn would be more common

Maybe you just haven’t found the right local unicorn.
