Nob at Night User ID: 14951828 Australia 04/24/2012 01:27 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I think Australia is the best country. But in the red centre as there are no multi-races there, just nice Aborigines. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 7181980 I agree, OP i personally wouldn't bother with south america, and certainly not Colombia! DO NOT listen to bebo colombia is certainly not safe, its safe-ER but in 2010 alone there were 16,000 murders and anyway, the NWO will get to south america eventually, if they're not there already. There are a lot of Americans already in Oz, i think Australia is nice culture fit with America, maybe thats why the Americans like it here so much??. But please, i dont't think the guy who wrote the above qoute has ever BEEN to alice springs. It IS a multi-race community, there are loads of white people and others there, so i have no idea what he is on about. I certainly would not recommend Alice springs to you OP, i just spent a few nights there in a hotel and all i could hear through my bedroom window when i was tring to sleep was lots of drunk aboriginals shouting all night and there is a lot of unemployment there so this sort of thing is probably the norm. |

On the downside, it may look close to the beach on the maps, but it is an all day drive to get there. [link to en.wikipedia.org] **I'm all out of bubblegum |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 14771624 Spain 04/24/2012 02:09 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Don´t you people know where the equator is? Panama, Mexico, Costa Rica, Belize...are all in the NORTHERN hemisphere! and if you believe anything Major Ed Dooms says, S. America has 0 safe zones. Colombia and Ecuador are very safe, beautiful, wonderful people, loads of culture, and very cheap to live in...and are also volcano central. Colombia has 15 volcanoes listed in wikipedia with 8 being active in the last century. Ecuador has 30 listed with 3 already having major eruptions this year...about 5 have erupted within the last hundred years. The Galapagos in Ecuador (1000 km off the coast) has another 14 with most erupting fairly recently and a few that go off all the time. I was at a conference years ago where the speaker (Mayan Elder Humbatz Men) was talking about the volcanoes, and said that when they really started to go that it would be like a chain reaction all the way up and down the corridor from Patagonia through Central America and into Mexico. I do love S. America though |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 14771624 Spain 04/24/2012 02:24 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Yes, but how would one live in South America? Quoting: Justin_T Once you get there... then what? What about jobs? You have a couple of options...one...live off the land. But, if you think you are going to show up and go native...you've got another thing coming. If you have no money, you, the gringo, are not wanted, and will be marginilized. People are poor and they don't need people showing up stealing their mangoes. Gone are the days when the locals would welcome you with open arms and invite you to dinner and give you a place to stay on their farm because you were a ´merican. They now for the most part see the gringos as imperialistic assholes who stay drunk and look for cheap drugs and women...because most of the gringos down there DO! Other option is to look for a solid expat community where you can mix with the locals and hope they can give you some work, maybe in one of their hotels or bars. You will still be seen pretty much as a freeloader, though as all kinds of people there are loaded and come down with cash. Everybody is looking to make a buck on property or a scam of some sort. Last option...have money. Not alot, just enough to not have to depend on anyone else. Take it easy and be helpful everywhere you go and things will just "happen". |
Anonymous Coward User ID: 12046133 Argentina 04/24/2012 02:26 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Seriously. You don't know what you're saying. Most people over here would kill to go live in the 1st world. And this place isn't even as "bad" as others in the region. By the way, NWO is everywhere, if it indeed exists. Do you think they are stupid, and made certain parts of the world just free for grabs??? Don't think for a minute you will live with the nature and that sort of crap. Here, we have descomunal cities, crowded with traffic and people, just like everywhere else, in case you search for a different society. The difference is worst infrastructure, worst services, less order, etc. You can go to a rural area, but why bother travelling to the other end of the world to do that? |
Anonymous Coward User ID: 11605739 Argentina 04/24/2012 02:41 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | in your opinion, what is the best country to live in the southern hemisphere for overall quality of living? Quoting: pink cat new zealand and australia sound good. but i am worried about it being a bit too NWO. but then what place on earth is left untouched by the NWO? not really anywhere that i can think of. can anyone recommend anywhere in peru? also, i know this is in the northern hemisphere, but has anyone from here ever lived or is currently living in morocco? (i love moroccan food! yum :) just considered my options in case of nuclear doom and such. thank you :) Anywhere in Central America as it as the smallest plate of all. The plates are moving so if a shift happens the Central American plate will be elevated. This is a good time to move there as the tourist season is over and should have many opportunities for care taking position. Most positions you don't have to pay rent. just pay the utilities. Some do pay you to look after their properties if they have animals. Check here on Graigslist under housing. [link to www.craigslist.org] I just found a position and the house is amazing with a million dollar view. OP thank you for the bread recipe, I will definitely try it. |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 1548221 Brazil 04/24/2012 02:57 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | OK, ok, since many of you are SO anxious... I would gladly exchange places with ANY of you from your northern hemisphere countries for this southern hemisphere one. No need to thank me! Quoting: Anonymous Coward 12046133 Seriously. You don't know what you're saying. Most people over here would kill to go live in the 1st world. Talk for yourself. Nobody in Brazil is "killing" to go live in the "1st world". In fact, in the past 4 years, a huge number of Brazilian who lived abroad have RETURNED HOME! |

In fact, in the past 4 years, a huge number of Brazilian who lived abroad have RETURNED HOME! I've been abroad many times, and each time I saw more brazilians everywhere. You know how is it in our countries, even though I admit yours is much better prepared for the future than mine, we all still has a lot of internal problems to solve. Quality of life in Brazil is nowhere near ANY place of the 1st world, sad but true. And it still needs a lot of improvement to compete. That means, the average middle class brazilian lives worst than the middle class english, just to give an example. Things are improving, of course, but I'm tired of watching all the doom in 1st world countries when they never lived the "real thing" over here. And I'm also tired of everyone talking how great Brazil is, with all due respect to its enormous progress, when it's still a million light years from the 1st world. BTW my great-grandparents were brazilian germans and I do love the place, it's just that it's not true what everybody thinks, at least not yet. |
