Now I have to hope to the god that is part of my new official state religion (do I need to have the local vicar over for tea when I move?) that someone over there hires me soon. Amazingly, people want to interview me.
The goal is to get the fuck out of America with my daughter before Trump is inaugurated. No specific plan of where to move, just wherever I get a job. We will move to the Falklands if we have to.
It feels so close now.
If you got a remote job, where would you like to move? Also congratulations.
Thanks! I have relatives in Bristol, which would be nice for the support, but I think for my daughter's sake, because it is the most LGBT-friendly country in Europe, Scotland.
Really though, anywhere at all is better than fucking Indiana.
I love Bristol. About 90% of the lanyards are rainbow themed. You could really do a lot worse.
Bristol is supposed to be very nice, Brighton is probably the most LGBT friendly city in the UK from what LGBT friends have told me, London is generally accepting of everyone but can be expensive.
Obviously do some more research, but I figure it's worth putting those two cities on your radar.
Thanks!
I think you'll be very happy with choosing Scotland. I'm not from the UK but I've been many times and for a while my work was bringing me to Scotland regularly. The people are so nice and the country is so gorgeous, the culture, the vibe, it's all great apart from the weather. Edinburgh is probably the most LGBT friendly city but overall people from all over are just chill as fuck (with that rough edge though). I'd consider moving there myself if it was still part of the EU, also I think our next place will need to have nicer weather haha.
I don't think I'll get to choose, but if I do have a choice, I think it would probably be a smaller Scottish city. Inverness or Perth or something.
Yeah all fine as well I'm sure. Bit jealous to be honest, oh to have the Highlands in my backyard..
I've been lucky enough to live in several UK cities, including Bristol. It is one of the most progressive places in the whole of the UK. As the other comment also says, Brighton is also great.
You are also onto a win with Scotland - I have family there.
What I'm realising is that actually, you are probably right saying 'anywhere at all...'
There's patches of rough around (like anywhere), but overall you can't go wrong.
If you need any support, let me know.
Thanks, I appreciate it!
