if over two years as criteria, only two nations (Canada and Jamaica)
if two years or under; Turks and Caicos for two years exactly, Belize for a year and a half or so. a place in the DR for 9 months but don't know if that counts as I was barely ever there
love my hometown up in the freezer (named so for a reason) but dislike the cold and the lack of leafy trees for months of the year, love ocean swimming year round. plus better music down below where the sun shines
lol Mark down in the zoo basement, he can be hella fun peeps and also extremely helpful about ahem, "serious business", if you catch him in the right mood (just fucking with you Mark, merci/gracias/thanks/bless for your input on something I wasn't sure about)
I've always been intrigued by Vietnam as a) they eat food I can eat, b) warm, c) gorgeous nation with fascinating politics
but it's way too far from my people over here in the West. lang not
as much of a factor as I am passable with French but wow Vietnamese as a lang
say the exact same words in a different cadence/tone and it changes from intent. responding to 'what brought you to Vietnam?' you meant to say 'I'm here as I live with my Vietnamese girlfriend'. which came out as 'I'm in Vietnam to buy Vietnamese girlfriends'
actually happened to an expat my mom met over there with a fair trade team on her first visit LOLOL. the men he was responding to were apparently horrified. I'll stick to Spanish, Creole and Patois, thank you very much
some V hip hop and trap is actually wickedly good though
if it were a nation geographically closer I'd have def given it a go. in the Caribbean I'm 4 hours away max from anyone I want/need to see and I love it here
pretty settled where I am, for now at least. no more int'l moves (I promised that to my cats as they are not fond of flying-my eldest cat who passed last year had 8 stamps in his pet passport) I don't think. for the foreseeable future at least
in the future, who knows? but here and now so happy where I am. it just fits. travel is awesome for finding a place that ticks all the right boxes as the Brits would say
hell, even within the same nation you can experience a ton of different things by moving around til you find that which is 'just right'. in JA alone I moved 3 times til I was like "yep, this is a match"
you planning any future moves Castro? and of the countries you've experienced which was your fav and why?
