Does anybody know where I can go to "get away?"
So lately I've been feeling like I need a fresh new start away from America... Just sick of the systematic way of life here which has not brought be any true happiness.

So any ideas where I can just pack up and go somewhere and start fresh?

Anybody else feel this way?

Ofcourse this is not some small process. This must be a properly planned thing...

Any ideas??!!

You're moving to....Cocos (Keeling) Islands !!!

The Territory of the Cocos (Keeling) Islands, also called Cocos Islands and Keeling Islands, is a territory of Australia, located in the Indian Ocean, southwest of Christmas Island and approximately midway between Australia and Sri Lanka.

The territory consists of two atolls and 27 coral islands, of which two, West Island and Home Island, are inhabited with a total population of approximately 600.

At least in america you're getting f*cked politely in a timely and gradual manner.



Somewhere else in the world all is good for 4 or 5 years and then a band of wtf's with ak47s come shoot all your lifestock set fire to your house and shoot you and your family.

I'd stay in america, if you think the world is any better, well it takes money or people in the know to get you residence in most good foreign countries. Some people have the personality to do it, I don't. Plenty to do in america. Relatively safe and free. Can't complain really... other than not getting enough time off to actually do anything meaningful. I'd take a month off unpaid if I could.

I see all the rats are abandoning the ship. So many people complain and would rather leave and put their head in the sand then stay and try to make a better future for all of us.

Good riddance!

Wise guy?
How old are you? Like 17?

What do you know of tyranny? Have you been jailed for political dissent? Have you been oppressed for you political views?
Have you not enough to eat and clean water to drink?
Roof over your head.
See where I am headed. Most of the rest of mankind living on this earth do not have benefit of what you so sorely think of as tyranny.
Try North Korea, I hear it's lovely this time of year.

Re: Does anybody know where I can go to "get away?"
I am hearing alot of good things from Americans who have relocated to Quito, the capital of Ecuador.

Alot of the people in Quito speak some English.

There is a lower cost of living for the middle class there (lower by about 50%) in comparison to the States so the quality of housing, food, and personal security one can afford are good.

There is a "live and let live attitude" like we value here in the States.

However, most of the people I have talked to are not working at jobs there, but are living off interest from their investments or retirement funds. However, I do get the impression that their unemployment rate is lower than in the States.

The other thing I am hearing alot is that Ecuadorans are generally happy people and satisfied with their way of life.

Last, if/when we see serious earth changes, Quito has an elevation of 9,350 feet above sea level. In fact, it is the highest capital city in the world. This could come in handy if the oceans continue to rise and significant coastal flooding is an issue.
