I’ve just moved to Shanghai. This is a dream come true for me. I'm curious to know about your dream destination. If you could relocate to any city in the world, which one would it be and why does it appeal to you?

I’m dreaming about London, now planning the trip there to see how we feel there. And Barcelona (missing palms in Canada)

I've moved to Switzerland for a few months (quite near Lausanne). Got to say - the Swiss have it pretty worked out 🙌🏻

I would love to move to Singapore for somedays. But not forever. My current city is best for me:)

@girish_gilda Certainly, a temporary stay in Singapore could be a wonderful experience!

Indeed, the idea of relocating can seem daunting at first, especially when it involves overcoming language barriers and adjusting to a new culture. However, I believe that with careful planning and the right support, the process can be much more manageable. For instance, having reliable moving services is crucial for a stress-free transition. For those considering moving to or from the vibrant city of Los Angeles, services like affordable movers in Los Angeleshttps://affmov.com/ can greatly alleviate the stress associated with relocation. They provide the necessary logistical support to embark on this new adventure with peace of mind, ensuring that one can focus on settling in and enjoying the new city from the start

Certainly right now its getting out of Los Angeles and California. Crime up. Tax up. Traffic up. Homelessness up. Dirtiness up. Drug use up. Total mess. Looking at other states such as Florida, Texas, Nevada, Tennessee. Anyone else recently leave or looking to leave LA?

@weansard I keep hearing good things about Fairhope in Alabama. I know its the 'deep south' but its supposedly California living without the bad stuff (like you mentioned).

@weansard I had bias reservations about Alabama, but Fairhope is very different. Do check it out! (this is no paid ad haha)

@ixord Living near a forest and mountains sounds wonderful, and I personally find the fresh, earthy scent of the forest to be incredibly appealing.

Launching soon!
For the next few years of my life, probably SF. The startup community there is probably unrivaled.

Dream destination for me would be Switzerland next to Japan, but for relocation -- that I haven't given much thought of.

Considering Valencia or Malaga/Marbella for a while already. Lisbon was in the past in my list but it became extremely expensive and complicated for relocation.

@byalexai I've been and absolutely loved it. Good combo of mid-size city with calm districts and seacoast proximity. Prices are pretty affordable and when I compare prices for apartments (especially to buy) in Prague where i currently live and in Valencia, the last offers way better options. And also, amount of sunny days that i'm lacking in Prague is unbeatable in Spain.

@marina_bau Wow! I and my wife are considering Valencia. Have you ever been there?
Share
Mary Rumyantzeva, PhD
@marina_bau Having visited Spain and found it delightful, I'm optimistic you'll find a great alternative to Lisbon.

@marina_bau Valencia truly outshines Prague)

I've always been drawn to the vibrant culture, history, and beauty of Turkey. Istanbul, in particular, seems like a dream destination for me with its unique blend of East and West.
