Hi everyone, So here is my [M 26] situation.

I’m from Paris and I’ve be willing to relocate to another European country. They are many reasons, but the main one is that I can’t stand the atmosphere here in France.

I’ve travelled all around Europe to choose a new country, and there are four destinations I seriously consider, but I would need help from locals or expats to give me pro/cons for all of these countries.

So could some of you give me exemple of both positive and negative experience in these countries ? I’m only taking about events/social habits that are frequents. Not about extremely rare experience that happens with a likelyhood of 1 over 2 billions.

Thanks !

    I’m a local in Estonia. It’s pretty nice here. Feel free to DM for more information.

    Currently the winter has been crazy, tons of snow in late November with temperatures getting to -10C. This is quite unusual in November.

    Estonia is pretty anti-Russian, as they have the least percentage of Russians out of all the Baltic countries. You’ll find large Ukrainian communities here.

    Estonia is also quite small, so you might find yourself bored. The are always things to do, but you need to seek then out.

    Estonia has also gotten quite expensive for the salary you earn. Tech gets paid well, but everything else, I’d imagine you’d struggle.

    There is very little bureaucracy as everything is fine online. The online government infrastructure is amazing. Look up the e-residency program and you’ll see.

      First of all, I REALLY love Estonia. But what you wrote about the percentage of Russians is just not true. Out of all Baltic countries, Lithuania has the least amount of Russians, ~5%. Estonia’s 24% is a lot in comparison.
