Well said: "That’s the quiet cost of rugged individualism: we all build our fences higher and wonder why we feel so disconnected." It happens here too, but particularly in city centres that are actually liveable and densely populated, I find it's more difficult to stay in your own bubble and instead, you more easily come in to contact with people who don't look, think, and earn like you. And that is a boon for us all.
This is great. We had a community like that once in the US but it didn’t last long before people had to start moving away due to costs. I did move to escape America but I also moved to experience something new and potentially better, which has been my experience so far.

I was reading some of your articles and watched some of your videos and I think I understand why you did it. Your family safety is vital.
We also moved to experience something new and potentially better — better being subjective — and so far I am enjoying it.
Very well said. I feel the same living in Spain. The country operates with “us” in mind instead of “me and mine.”
The me and mine is really lonely. 😞
My favorite part was “we didn’t move to escape America; we moved to live somewhere that still believes in the idea of us.” Very well written!
Thank you Simran! 🤗
👏This is so well written and mirrors our experience moving to the Netherlands.
Thank you Gerlando. I think I might make it a series. There’s so many more.
