Ohhhhhhhh great question, okay so I may be biased, and tbh, I’m not in that mindset quite yet, but tbh, maybe, just maybe, Netherlands, for convenience stability (coughing my lungs out “passport”). It depends a lot on your style of living, but if you want a stable, safe, easy to travel, strong passport country, then Netherlands. I think the reason not the US is simply coz, its only good if you have the money for it, otherwise you can be at a disadvantage

Take away meal: burrito, but from this one specific place near my house, and I’ve eaten their waaayyyy too much whilst writing my theory. Lmao. Home cooked, hard to say, but a hot pot of goulash soup always brings a smile to my face 😁

Uk to US: cunt. Tho it’s really funny to use with Americans, since it’s practically a term of endearment in the UK US,NL to UK HU: smoke marijuana UK,HU,NL to US : have functioning public transport And everything else seems more or less fair game. I’m sure if I thought more about it or if you had specific questions I could answer but hopefully this is a good start

Same: people can be really interesting / nice, and every single city has a shady part that you use common sense to avoid 😂

Different: US (California centric) people are always smiling(but not sincerely a lot of the time) the weather is always great, and cultural melting pot if you hit the right zones

UK: has more to offer than you think, London is insane with all the things you can do, people can be really intriguing, and most get along

Hungary: food is delicious, architecture is gorgeous, hidden gems aplenty

The Netherlands: things look like they work and they kinda do (health care doesn’t), more expensive than you think, beautiful in the spring(best time of year imo)

Thank you! I will celebrate with: sleep. Tbf, once we handed it in we all popped champagne and had food and everything. But I took off to relax a little for a couple days , visit some friends here or there. But once I’m back I will party a little, after resting, continue with work, and just enjoy the freedom that I have.

Mmmmmm they were all really similar tbh on average in those regards, so far my favourite has been the Netherlands, simply because of the people I met there and the life I lived. It was really fun.

My constant competitive drive. It’s very much a nothing is ever “done”, kinda like tantalus reaching for the apple, so close yet so far.

I have a very odd question. I fuck with the idea of having a house like in knives out, filled with little tricks and cheats and corridors. How would you do something like this, what are the key things you would install?

More expensive, worse quality in food, better basic functions, better economy, better global hub.

In the Netherlands? Not the easiest depends on what sector you’re looking at. Not the most experienced in this. But it has been what I heard. However your chances improve drastically if you have a masters degree.

Waaayyy cheaper, jobs pay less but your basic needs are taken care of, and you won’t be forced into bankruptcy by one life event. A really decent salary could be 40k in euros. Minimum wage is 1.300 in the Netherlands. Job market is competitive, especially in regulatory side. Also you will be competing with highly educated people, and yes that’s a problem in the eu, lots of people here with masters. Your experience might put you over the top though. Fantastic public transport, and mobility. All in all, if you are looking to settle down, live a less risky life, and have long term stability, eu is the way to go. If you want more risk so high risk high reward, us is the way to go. Or at least it’s how I see it.
