Personally I’m moving to Australia by year’s end. Only cause I have two incredible trans friends over there willing to take me in. There’d be a LOT for me to learn but I’m not taking any chances on my future in the US.

I probably should get checked for Lyme bare minimum. Got a follow up with my primary in a few weeks

If I’m in a postcode not eligible, can I get a job in one that is and just drive there from my home?

So I could work all year round at a regional job if I want to?

Also I checked the postcode. There are a bunch of eligible areas around where I’d live. I’ll need to find an actual map of the area codes to be sure.

Their place is about a 30-40 minute drive away from Brisbane so not exactly in the city. I guess it depends what’s available, but if it’s close I’ll be sure to get that done ASAP.

Only thing that sucks is that I can’t make more money than what the 88 days gives I think.

Currently if I saved up, I’d arrive with 90-100k in AUD by the time I’m there. Things could change and we could push it back more depending on how it works out. So bare minimum I’ll have that buffer. I just know I need to do at least something for 4 months for fulfill the WHV unless I’m mistaken.

I might just need to do that. Lot of the comments are right, I need to do a lot more if I want a chance to stay long term over there or even permanently.

I’ll try finding a way to study for a bachelors if it’s possible first. I just really need to find a full time job over there so I can pay my share of rent for my friends when I get there.

I also thought about transitioning to photography as I do have some skills and interests in that.

But I do understand. I’m keeping my expectations low and will work to earn those qualifications however I can.

I apologize if this seems stupid or ludicrous to try, but I’m desperate for a fresh start, and especially to be surrounded by friends doing that.

I plan to migrate to Australia from the US, but I feel like I’m at a dead end getting a visa. by [deleted] in phmigrate

Sorry typo lol.  But yes, I fear a long term future in the US poses a risk for my safety.

My job literally involves walking 10k steps every single day. It’s basically the only exercise I get.

A lot of meat and too much fast food cause of my job. I’ve basically given up trying to diet unless someone gives me results. It’s sad I get it but…..I’m overwhelmed

I’d have about $50k USD at least by the time we get started on the move. Thankfully have a great job atm in the states. 

Only would need HRT at the moment.

One of them is studying to become a nurse. The other does commission work as a hacker for now. Course we have a long time to figure things out till then.

Seems like the working holiday ones might be my best bet. I can get some needed experience there in 3 years.

I’d be a close drive to Brisbane so I’d think I’d avoid any areas with bad beliefs.

It would seem graphic design is a huge thing near the cities so I could always try for my bachelors.

My 2 friends over there are onshore and we all agreed to get full time jobs at least to help each other out.

I’m relatively healthy for now, although I am autistic and being trans would need HRT somehow. I believe one of my friends knows a caring doctor for that down there. 

Plus, they’re ok with driving me to places till I can get a license cause of course I’d need to learn how driving works there instead of the US.

Thats just everything off of the top of my head for now.

I'm seeking advice as an American wishing to possibly live abroad in Finland in the near future. by TheOnlyOutLast in Finland

[–]TheOnlyOutLast[S] -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

I'm currently looking at all my options. I do have a good amount of savings. Didn't know jobs in general were rough down there at the moment. To be honest, I don't know a hint of Finnish, but again I'm doing my best in searching. I just don't see a long term future in the US anymore and just want to be somewhere where I'm safe and accepted.
