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

    lol it’s not that deep? You claim I am acting privileged because I asked people for suggestions? In fact, I asked people for suggestions because I have no clue where I would want to go? It sounds like you probably have some deeper wounds there because I was genuinely asking for help?

    I’m actually not entry level at Deloitte for your own information and want to relocate because my country is drowning in corruption? Perhaps I want to move so that I can achieve a better quality of life for me and my family?

    You replied to an honest post with a lot of directed criticism without considering the fact that maybe I want to build a relationship with a partnering firm in an international country in order to understand the firm and move there? And in order to do so, I am trying to understand which potential countries I should be looking at?
