I am curious if any others here are in a similar phase. Over the years I have enjoyed learning about other countries just to have that knowledge of their pros/cons should I ever need to leave with the fam. Lately, given recent developments beyond our control, my wife and I are actually regularly discussing different places. I have spent some time in Vancouver B.C. for example, but it's too expensive now. Looking south.

Anybody else in this phase? Feel free to share notes, if so. I work with a gentleman from Ecuador and he will probably return there upon retirement (soon). He loves it. I enjoyed a long-running series of podcasts on Chile until they recently ended. Even had a letter I wrote to the host read in his show about a year ago (that was interesting).
