Where could you live, and what could you gain? A weekly podcast & newsletter on choosing, moving to and living in a new country. With Lena & Sam.podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/id6…Joined May 2020
What's the one thing that makes living abroad feel out of reach for you right now?
Money? Your job? Family? Or just not knowing where to start?
Tell us. We'll dig into the most common one.
@vrexec funny how what people end up valuing most isn't the salary, it's the trains, the long holidays and the calmer work culture. do you see many of them just deciding Europe is the permanent plan now?
Details: it works on a normal visitor visa or NZ's online travel pass (NZeTA).
Tax: NZ usually won't tax that income for up to 92 days in a year if you're taxed back home.
From Immigration New Zealand's own news page.
Most people don't know this is allowed.
You can visit New Zealand and keep doing your job back home. Since January 2025, visitors can work remotely for an employer or clients outside the country.
Just no local jobs or local clients while you're there.
Would you go for a month?
@BowTiedPassport the version that seems to work is the opposite: keep earning at full rates and spend it somewhere that gives you better weekdays. sun, walkable streets, time with family. curious which places you see people get that balance right?
@Ifwal95 the coffee chat with someone who actually lives there is so underrated. 13 years and not one gunshot is quite the reality check 😂 did you end up picking Austin? curious what surprised you most once you got there
@SovereignLatam a home base, a kitchen that's actually yours and a dog sounds like a pretty great next chapter 😄 what's tipping it toward Argentina for you, the people, the cities or the pace?
@GlobalMoveHub Korea, easy 😄 the scholarship comes with a degree, a new language and a few years living there. a visitor visa lets you visit Canada but not take a job there, so it's a holiday pass, not a move. anyone picking Canada, what's the plan?
@TechnicalBben the money bar does keep moving. one thing that changes the maths a lot is a job offer with sponsorship, then the employer carries a big part of it. which country were you looking at?
A question worth starting with:
Not "which country is best?"
But "what do I want a normal Tuesday to look like?"
More sun? Walking to work? Kids playing outside more? Dinner at 9?
The right places get much easier to spot after that. What's on yours?
@Beniwiner you already asked him the right questions tbh. maybe a middle step: a long visit home to test the business idea and the real monthly costs before he leaves the UK job? being close to family is a real win. what kind of business is he thinking of?
@BabaDClint village, as long as there's a train to the city for the odd weekend 😄 the remote job is what makes the quiet life possible. what would you miss most from city life?
If you lived abroad for a year, what would you most want to come home with?
A new language
More savings
A slower pace
Friends in another country
Or would you not come home at all? 😄
Aged 18 to 35 with a UK passport?
You can live and work in Australia for up to 3 years. That's three 1-year visas, and you don't have to use them back to back.
Since July 2024 you don't need to do farm work to get your second or third year.
Where would you base yourself first?
