SCOUTS MOM IS ALIVE SHE IS NOT DEAD!!!!

I know this is going to make me sound pretensions but I have to get it off my chest. I feel an unimaginable rage when someone posts a photo and is like "this picture looks like a renaissance painting lol" when the photo clearly has the lighting, colors and composition of a baroque or romantic painting. There are differences in these styles and those differences are important and labeling every "classical" looking painting as renaissance is annoying and upsetting to me. And anytime I come across one of those posts I have to put down my phone and go take a walk because they make me so mad

assuming you can afford the safest route, where do you even begin with finding somewhere else to live? i might have the privilege to escape but i still dont even know where to start

Consider who's going with you, and what kind of experience you'd like to have.

For ease of access as an english speaker, it may be worth looking into somewhere in Europe. If you've got family out of the country, it could be there.

Personally, my partners and I are looking at southeast Asia. Probably not Japan again, but somewhere in that hemisphere is where we plan to touch down. We ended up going with that region because one of my partner's is black, and we didn't want to go to a country that was especially anti-black, so pretty much every white, english-speaking colonial country was out of the question. If the goal is to go somewhere safe, we're going somewhere we can all be safe.

The hardest part is not choosing the place to go, it's getting started with the process of doing it. Make sure you pick somewhere that will be good for you, and be thorough in making your decision, but remember that you can't run a marathon without the first step.

Look up "One day living in [COUNTRY]", "Trying street food in [COUNTRY]", "First time visiting [COUNTRY]," and other kinds of videos to get an idea of the ground-level living wherever you think to go. Look up things like how much it costs to go to the dentist, how much it costs to ride the bus, how much it costs to rent a house. Look up possible visas, conversion rates between currencies, languages spoken, religions practiced, common phrases and social expectations, courtesies and customs. Get acquainted before you go, and then go.

That is my advice. I'm sorry I can't give you more.
