Should I move to another country?
Moving abroad changes your context, not your patterns — which is good news if the context is the problem. Be honest about which one you are trying to leave.
What to actually weigh
Are you moving toward or away?
Both are valid, but they need different plans. Moving toward something survives a hard first year. Moving away from something tends to arrive with you.
What does year two look like?
The first year is novelty and admin. The second is when the language, the friendships, and the distance from home become the actual experience.
What are the practical locks?
Visa, healthcare, tax residency, and whether you could return. These are boring and they determine more of the outcome than the city does.
Frequently asked
How do I decide whether to move abroad?
Separate the move from the escape. Write down what would need to be true in two years for it to have been right, then check whether the destination actually offers those things.
What should I consider before moving to another country?
Visa route, healthcare access, tax residency, language, and how expensive it is to come back. Most regret concentrates in the ones people skipped because they were tedious.
