For those of us a little older who remember the Berlin wall, we still call the Czech Republic "Eastern Europe" because it was once East of the Wall. Good to know that we need to update our references now to Central rather than Eastern.

Lots of useful information. I have been thinking about this for awhile but the thought of the bureaucracy and language barrier might keep me in the US. That and the thought of not having our friends or “stuff”. We might need to make do with 1-3 months instead. Thank you for a dose of reality!

You're absolutely right Cepee! There's no way I could have done it without a job and them lining up a visa for me, especially since I couldn't read or speak a lick of Thai. Even the first Visa run to Malaysia then back to Thailand to get my initial work visa was a huge challenge. An adventure for sure, but so glad I did it!

Thank you for letting me know about the two and a half years. I moved to Spain from the US last August

[lacypayne]

This is great! Thank you for your channel as a 30+ gal hahah

[LisaFranchina]

All great advice Ceepee. I would never dream of moving abroad without having all my ducks in a row. And BTW, I always refer to the Czech Republic as Eastern Europe as well so no worries there. xoxo

my experience: I dont like moving on different countries since its very difficult to set up the room of the new place and to get it comfortable and I cant get the right outlets for charging devices.and I cant wait to get the first router after I move to another place.In my case I had savings but my Debit card wasn't working in there for anything. but i don't have language barrier. and i were missing my old furnitures and items and I were wondering how long it will take for me to get them into the new place.

[WendySnootles]

My dream of moving abroad seems so far away.

[skibum]

Okay to move if you are retired and drawing social security and/or a pension, that is my situation.

Investors what do you have for visa for real estate investors and business

[donnaanderson]

I'm just curious if you qualify for Armenian citizenship from ancestry. I'm trying to find out if I can qualify for any other country abroad through ancestry.

It would be interesting if you could talk about immigrating with animals!

Spain groceries not cheap, utilities high, tax high, not much saving.
