I currently live in South Africa and well, I want a plan for a place to move to in the next 5 years max. The problem is i can’t decide where to go and as much as I love Australia, it feels too far from the time zones where all my people are.

So I have decided that Europe/UK would be perfect but can’t find a perfect fit. I have a UK passport

I am looking for:

  • mild weather. Not too bothered to be honest but not looking for a snow 8 months of the year or rain 8 months of the year. Ideally i just want a place that gets some sunlight, some rain, some cold and some hot days
  • low level or low acknowledgment of corruption. I want my taxes to do something -low crime rate
  • good work life balance with a decent opportunity for living. Currently working at a Big 4 consultancy so hoping I can have a nice enough lifestyle but not be working 24/7

I really like places like Netherlands, Scotland, Germany but have found various flaws. I also really like the Mediterranean

I don’t really like the UK but prefer something like Scotland. They just apparently get less sun than I’d like

      This post screams of unworldly and privileged. All the way to asking everyone to do their leg work and present a case. Eff off.

      If op is working for one of the big4 as consultant/accountant etc (not HR, cleaning/cafetria etc) then it is probably not a very big problem to get a visum.

      Norway is probably too cold for OP, But Denmark is vertainly possible if you are skilled
