Where do you live??????? Where should I live? - GoFuckYourself.com

C H R I S · 10-19-2014, 05:17 PM

I grew up in Los Angeles my entire life with a short stint in the bay area. I have a love hate relationship with S Cal,,, I love the beach, the weather, and the lifestyle.

Overall though LA kinda sucks to be honest. Most people are pretty fake and generally dicks and in comparison to European and Asian cities you can hardly call LA a city, maybe more of an urban sprawl,

I've come to the conclusion that I cant live in LA any longer.

So where do you live? What cities are the most vibrant in the world?

So far tops on my list....

Prague
Bangkok
Barcelona

NatalieK · 10-19-2014, 05:27 PM

Prague or Barcelona sounds about best

We've just made the best move of our lives, now living in Spain, south of Barcelona. It's beautiful with sea views from our apartment, warm clean air to breath, hmmm the med

Barcelona or Marbella has always been my choice for retirement. I've been in BKK for a month and loving it. It is a transient city so you meet people from EVERY country almost everyday. I was in Prague for 2 weeks and fell in love with he city and the people. Noted on the speed and stress of Prague - it's sort of like Vegas with real castles.

JA$ON · 10-19-2014, 06:19 PM

If you've been in Los Angeles your whole life and you're thinking about going to someplace like a Bangkok or Singapore, I would recommend going there for an extended stay before you pick up and move. I know you've traveled around but living somewhere is a whole different ballgame. I go for a couple of months and see what it feels like to have to live their day in day out. Just my two cents

Ive been in Bangkok for a month and have been coming for 15 years. I agree with you 100%

duk75 · 10-19-2014, 06:34 PM

It depends on what you want to do in your city. You should tell us first what you would like to be your common activities, like what kind of cultural activities you expect to make, what kind of sports, what kind of transportation, what kind of weather, what kind of travelling, what kind of speech, what kind of repression from the government you can stand, what kind of corruption you can stand, what kind of women you like, what kind of proximity to others you expect.

I mean the good and bad questions, because every city has its pros and cons, so you have to be open to resist some government ultra stalking with the benefit of having the things that city offers. You seem to have to pay some price for the benefits you want.

In London the police inspects your internet, and the cams record everything you do in the streets, and also everything is expensive as gold... But you have the benefits of living in London, like... can someone name one?

In Paris you have excellent public transportation, amazing urban architecture -and I am not talking about the monuments, but about the commons looks of the streets, they are usually pretty even if they are unknown non famous streets-. But you have the disadvantage of having to speak french, which is a language with an ugly senseless orthography that any intelligent person simply can't stand.

So tell us what you want and what you can stand, and we can give you better advice.

Very good point..... to answer:

1) I like transient cities like BKK as I love meeting new people from around the world.
2) Low cost of living
3) High quality of life
4) Either near or at beach. Must be at least driving distance for weekends.
5) People must be nice. In my travels I've found the friendliest cities to be - BKK, PRG, BCN Edinburgh. Unfriendliest - LA, London, NY
6) Must have good club scene with active music scene.
7) Cosmopoliton city with many choices for food.
8) Services must be up to par as in electricity, malls.... basically I want to be able to buy anything I need.

Does that help?

wdsguy · 10-19-2014, 07:53 PM

I moved away from LA as well, a big fuck you to Jerry Brown and state taxes.

If you want to live cheaply as an expat the choices nowadays is basically either S America or Southeast Asia.

Captain Kawaii · 10-19-2014, 08:05 PM

Unless you want to be an English teacher or willing to plunk down lots of cash BKK is no longer really an option. If you are old enough to retire and get a retirement visa maybe.

Rules changed in August and the military government there ain't getting any nicer.

South of Spain is nice. Tangier is nice. I hear New Zealand can be nice.

I moved to Tokyo from Los Angeles. LA has become a cesspool. Was a beautiful town when the Brown Derby still popped.

I already have a house in BKK. No problem.

Costa del Sol is amazing but pricey. Tangier is a new one.... I will put on my list as well as NZ.

Excellent! A house? My new best friend. ;)

I lived in Tangier for some years. Quick jetfoil or cheap flights to EU. Women are "flexible."
Check out "The Mountain" if you ever go. Beautiful homes up there. Overlooks the Med and the Atlantic...

dicknipples · 10-19-2014, 08:28 PM

I live in Chicago right now. If I were to move, I'd become a digital nomad and probably not live in the same city/country for longer than a month at a time.

Our BKK house is 5 bedroom and my family owns a few condos and rice patties. ;-)

And very cheap here now. Yo can get a condo in Hua Hin fo 2-3 Million Baht (less than 100K USD). I was looking at one for 5 Million but dont know if I can justify for a few weeks a year as I dont want to move permanent there. Im thinking I can airbnb it to pay the mortgage though.

View from condo - beach 200 yards down the path.

KillerK · 10-19-2014, 10:26 PM

You should move to Florida or Texas.

Tasty1 · 10-19-2014, 11:25 PM

Just stay in BKK longer. I liked Kuala Lumpur also.
I didn't like LA when i was there on vacation.
Maybe Santa Barbara could be nice.
I like BKK for some weeks and than i want to leave.
But i like beaches more, not the city live with tourist.

Maybe you can stay near Pattaya, there are beaches, club life, shopping mall.
And within 2 hours you can be in he center of BKK.

Prague is nice, a lot of people like BRNO. But the winters must be not so nice and i hate cold winters. Budapest was also nice, but the winters... Best is to just move around i think, till you find the spot that makes you feel like coming home.

Klen · 10-20-2014, 12:02 AM

Prague .It can be indeed sometime boring,but it have good geographical connections,so you can always go somewhere temporally else if you feel like it.And since it have lower cost of life,money which is saved can be spend on travels and other thingies.

I consider Brno my home, living here for 8 years now.

but with 400k people it's not for someone who WANTS to live in a big city - for me it's just right.

and yes, winters can be cold, that's why in the long run i'll be needing a place in Thailand for those times ;)

Juno, Ive been hearing a lot of good things about Buenos Aires (Argentina). The property prices have crashed over there and the streets and architecture are beautiful..... its like a kind of paris style.

Anyone know what prices are for apartments these days in say Recoleta, Buenos Aires?

3 of 4 Argentinians i know don't even want to live in Argentina...

greg80 · 10-20-2014, 05:41 AM

Spain is great. Besides Barcelona you should consider Malaga. Very cheap to live there. If you want the best climate in the world and very clean air and healthy lifestyle, you should also consider Canary islands.

Sure but its very different for a foreigner living there (holding foreign currency). You can live very comfortably and on very little considering the peso is now half.

Barry-xlovecam · 10-20-2014, 06:16 AM

Somewhere where:

Fiber internet is available
A good standard of living can be had
You can speak the local language well
You can reside and do business legally
The tax burden is reasonable (Remember the foreign earnings may be taxable)
There is first world healthcare affordable to you

I can find all these things in the USA ...

Ross · 10-20-2014, 06:21 AM

I lived in Malta for one year in 09/10 and it was great. Island in the middle of the Med, 400,000 people growing to 1 million in summer time, tons of things to do, food is fresh and great, low cost of living, diverse people from all over EU who come to Malta to learn English and party. EU is on your doorstep, you can get cheap flights to almost every EU country, every weekend you can be in a new place for under $100 flight, living it up and partying or just sightseeing. I highly recommend a visit to Malta to check it out, I loved my time there. Climate can be crazy in summer tho, some days it gets hot as hell but most of the year it's excellent.

I know there are a few industry people in Malta as well, you'd have a blast.

RummyBoy · 10-20-2014, 06:30 AM

If I think about moving, id be thinking about the long term.
Where would I want to be with all of the above plus:

(1) Growing GDP
(2) Creditor Nation (high FX reserves & low debt country)
(3) Relatively clean air and water
(4) Good infrastructure
(5) Relative political stability
(6) Food/Power independence
(7) Few enemies

USA fails on (2)
USA fails on (7) BIG TIME

Spain is a part of a the wider European disaster and I don't see anything good happening in that region if we talk about the longer term. However, if youre holding FX and particularly USD, RMB etc then I would imagine you could be comfortable over there.

Argentina is interesting for me because property prices could be very cheap next year. Peso has fallen against USD from around 4.5 to 8.5 and the latest projections is that it could fall as much as to 11.5 by next year. Although the USD is now pricing everything so you may not get much gains over there esp with inflation - I don't know enough about this country to really comment so I may be talking complete bullshit but a lot of people are looking into Argentina.

Worth mentioning that whether or not they meet your criteria: Canada, Australia and New Zealand always have cities featuring in the reports of most liveable cities. Every year they seem to come tops....

Best is to just move around i think, till you find the spot that makes you feel like coming home. __________________ everything is fake

Up the coast from Sydney in Byron Bay or Airlie beach is pretty amazing as well - Very laid back and very 'cool'..... __________________ - Chaturbate Script - https://gfy.com/fucking-around-and-b...er-issues.html - Now supports White Labels

The property prices have crashed over there and the streets and architecture are beautiful..... its like a kind of paris style. Anyone know what prices are for apartments these days in say Recoleta, Buenos Aires?

If you want the best climate in the world and very clean air and healthy lifestyle, you should also consider Canary islands. __________________ Say no to GoDaddy and high renewal prices!

Ross Ik ben een aap Industry Role: Join Date: Sep 2002 Location: Traffic Force Towers, Canada! Posts: 18,874	I lived in Malta for one year in 09/10 and it was great. Island in the middle of the Med, 400,000 people growing to 1 million in summer time, tons of things to do, food is fresh and great, low cost of living, diverse people from all over EU who come to Malta to learn English and party. EU is on your doorstep, you can get cheap flights to almost every EU country, every weekend you can be in a new place for under $100 flight, living it up and partying or just sightseeing. I highly recommend a visit to Malta to check it out, I loved my time there. Climate can be crazy in summer tho, some days it gets hot as hell but most of the year it's excellent. I know there are a few industry people in Malta as well, you'd have a blast.

RummyBoy Confirmed User Join Date: Dec 2009 Posts: 2,157	If I think about moving, id be thinking about the long term. Where would I want to be with all of the above plus: (1) Growing GDP (2) Creditor Nation (high FX reserves & low debt country) (3) Relatively clean air and water (4) Good infrastructure (5) Relative political stability (6) Food/Power independence (7) Few enemies USA fails on (2) USA fails on (7) BIG TIME Spain is a part of a the wider European disaster and I don't see anything good happening in that region if we talk about the longer term. However, if youre holding FX and particularly USD, RMB etc then I would imagine you could be comfortable over there. Argentina is interesting for me because property prices could be very cheap next year. Peso has fallen against USD from around 4.5 to 8.5 and the latest projections is that it could fall as much as to 11.5 by next year. Although the USD is now pricing everything so you may not get much gains over there esp with inflation - I don't know enough about this country to really comment so I may be talking complete bullshit but a lot of people are looking into Argentina. Worth mentioning that whether or not they meet your criteria: Canada, Australia and New Zealand always have cities featuring in the reports of most liveable cities. Every year they seem to come tops.... Last edited by RummyBoy; 10-20-2014 at 06:39 AM..
