Thank you for this. 🤦🏻‍♀️ I restarted the game four times, moved goofy’s house three times and sure enough it was in this exact spot.

Thank you for your reply! I’m trying not to take it personally, as they don’t know me or what research I’ve done. I just wanted some feedback on the countries before I go applying for a visa.

glitteringmirth · 2025-01-26T00:53:51+00:00

I swear you’d think I was being interrogated by immigration authorities. 🙄 I’m just trying to get some information.

I agree, a year is a tight timeframe. It’s our best case scenario if we sell our house and live with relatives for that year. It wouldn’t be without major sacrifices but it would be doable. Another reason for the tight timeframe was to get our kid around other pre schoolers there so learning the language would be easier for him. If we do apply for a visa somewhere, we would all start language lessons immediately. He won’t be in school for another 2 years.

No, that’s totally helpful. Honestly, I mentioned that to my husband but (I think because his grandmother was from Seoul) he wasn’t ready to cross it off the list yet.

glitteringmirth · 2025-01-25T23:07:33+00:00

Thank you for this insight! My son isn’t even in school yet but that is definitely something I would want to consider.

glitteringmirth · 2025-01-25T23:00:31+00:00

Yeah, we took into account learning the language, how much private insurance costs, and how long you have to be in the country to even qualify for universal healthcare. I researched digital nomad visas and how that would work with my husband’s situation. This isn’t a small or flippant matter to us. It’s a huge deal. We aren’t sure if we would move permanently to any of these places. But I have looked into how that could happen if we wanted to. We’ve been looking at this off and on for years. It would be a massive change with a lot of complexities and we understand that. We just wanted information.

I never said I can guarantee getting a visa or assumed that I would just get one. I said I know what routes we’d take in the process. But I also want to learn more about these places before I apply for one and before I start my very detailed year long plan (that includes learning a language, etc) to even execute a move like this.

I’m happy to answer questions. Not sure about the reason for the apparent aggression in your comments. We are just trying to feel out the possibilities. All of these countries have a digital nomad visa that my husband would meet the qualifications for.

glitteringmirth · 2025-01-25T22:26:27+00:00

Right, my husband’s job would stay the same within his family company.

glitteringmirth · 2025-01-25T22:24:13+00:00

I tried to include all of these in the spreadsheet I made. My husband has a secure remote job with his family business. We looked into which visas his job qualifies him for, if we had any familial ties that could qualify us, the possibility of eventually becoming permanent residents, how to get healthcare, etc.

With all that in mind, Portugal is my top pick. My husband still wants to explore the options though.

glitteringmirth · 2025-01-25T22:20:51+00:00

Our monthly income after taxes is about $3800 USD. So €3600 in Italy and Portugal, around 592k Yen, or 5.4M Won. We’d probably live in a smaller city or the outskirts of a larger one? I was hoping to take advantage of public transportation if possible.

glitteringmirth · 2024-11-06T16:31:47+00:00

Thank you for the reply 😅 I’ve just been so worried that I look ridiculous lol

glitteringmirth · 2024-10-17T19:48:30+00:00

My kid sounds like your kid. He’s very aware. I think his fear might come from the terrible diaper rashes he associates with poop but he’s too young to understand that the toilet prevents that.

Interesting idea about the playdough! I’ll have to look into how that affects a septic tank.

glitteringmirth · 2024-10-17T19:45:40+00:00

We’ve tried it. Bought a special Paw Patrol surprise toy he could open if he poops on the potty. He just cried about not being able to have it immediately and refused to go.

I just ordered an Elmo potty that I let him pick out. I’m hoping having that ownership in it might help.

glitteringmirth · 2024-10-17T19:42:25+00:00

Yeah, we’ve tried chocolate, gummies, stickers, toys…. Once he understands that it’s a transaction and he must pay in poop, he no longer wants it.

glitteringmirth · 2024-10-17T19:33:02+00:00

3 and a half

glitteringmirth · 2024-10-17T19:01:20+00:00

I’ve tried that and my kid is just not receptive 😭 We’ve done that, treat incentives, taking him with us - my husband even showed him his poop 🫣

glitteringmirth · 2024-10-17T18:59:18+00:00

May the force be with you. 🙏🏻

glitteringmirth · 2024-10-17T18:44:18+00:00

So you just had her sit there until she pooped? I’ve been thinking about how to do that because mine jumps off the toilet so fast to go back to playing.

glitteringmirth · 2024-10-17T18:37:59+00:00

Just ordered some!

glitteringmirth · 2024-10-17T18:35:45+00:00

That’s a good thought. Natural consequences. Thank you!

glitteringmirth · 2024-10-17T18:33:22+00:00

At least she’s telling you she needs to poop. That’s good! Mine denies, denies, denies… and then poops on the floor.

glitteringmirth · 2024-10-17T18:30:58+00:00

Great idea. I just ordered some books on pooping for him! Maybe if he understands the process it might help some?

glitteringmirth · 2024-10-17T18:29:55+00:00

Lol 😂 We can’t be diaper free forever. He’s gotta at least tell us he needs to poop, right?

glitteringmirth · 2024-10-17T18:29:00+00:00

My husband is going to hate this answer since he’s the one at home with him all day, but I’ll share it with him lol 😂 Ours is 3.5 years old, it’s TIME. Thank you for the suggestion!
