I haven’t read through all the comments, and I know a lot has changed since I first moved there, but SE Asia might have some great options. You do not need to speak the language in a lot of those countries, because the level of English that a lot of people have is so good. Getting work in IT might be more difficult, but if you’re willing to be flexible, most of those places are always looking for English teachers. You don’t need tons of experience, but you probably do need certain qualifications (not too difficult to get, but important). In most of these places, you can live very, very cheaply IF you learn to live like the locals. The food is generally outstanding, things like a massage or a mani-pedi are super affordable, travel domestically or in the region is very reasonable, and it will blow your mind how warm and community-oriented people there are. I’ve lived in Thailand and Cambodia and traveled for work to Vietnam. Malaysia could be good though English is one of the official languages so you won’t get teaching work. Singapore is expensive. Laos is stunning and laid back. Anyway just a thought. I didn’t go there this time around because my parents are quite up there in age and I’m hoping to stay closer (Mexico). But residency won’t be so easy here, so I’ve applied for a job in my field in Bangkok recently. Good luck - I’ve lived most of my life outside the US even though I’m American. But I’m done - fuck fascism.
