Hi,

im just wanting to hear about australian expats abroad and what their motivation to leave was?

For me the obsession with housing market and home ownership is just insane.

I know other countries are like this and particular capital cities but it just seems so engrained in the culture here. What do other people think?

The live and work to get a mortgage mentality.

    I left 25 years ago to experience a bigger world away from where I grew up. I love property and now you’ve got me worried I took my obsession with me 😂. Flipping property in U.K. enabled early retirement in Greece.

    The Aussies I’m meeting in Greece who have left Australia recently have done so because of the fear of totalitarianism. Mostly Melbournians who don’t like the nanny state, vax mandates, the snitching culture etc. their experience, not mine.

    The world is a big place. Go wander.
