I still see one to three tents every now and then.

I came to USA 5 years ago just before covid hit, to see how different life is in usa compared to Europe (where I am from). In USA I had very successful career in management, the weather in CA is always nice, but I was miserable the whole time. Everything seems like 100x more stressful in USA, not sure why it is such a crazy anxiety-inducing place. Work paid well but literally I felt like life was being sucked out of me, it was so draining. I ended up working and driving most of the week and when I had free time I was so tired I just lay in bed and watch TV. The streets were always empty, just cars and ugly buildings everywhere. People basically living in their little bubbles of egoistic individualism. Found some friends (from work, how else...) but we had no time to meet outside of workplace. Basically loneliness and depression hit. I never ever had depression before in my life. So I am leaving USA after 5 years and I am so happy I can go back and restart my fuller life in Europe.

I lived in Bali for 15 years up until 2014. I was much less stressed, way more happy, healthy. Currently back in US but planning on returning to SE Asia as soon as I can.

[@sokpisethlalalanno]

There are so many Americans living in Cambodia-Thailand said exactly the same, It's not because of high cost of living in America, It's because they just can't find the happy life in the US, Most people that I met so far are very richest, but they choose to stay here.

@KidGreatness ... I can't thank you enough for this one video 🙏🏽 I know it might sound funny, but my HEART and SOUL accepted and felt the information you provided. I mean I literally stopped to listen to the whole message and you know we don't do that these days. Lol. Man I'm ready to GO! In fact, my brother actually lives in Thailand right now and raves about it! I'm miserable here in America 😕 Time to really make a plan. 🙏🏽🙏🏽 Keep living and loving your life man.

👂ABSOLUTELY TRUE SPEAK👌 IM HAPPY TO SEE U AGAIN HOMIE

[@blackbutterflyexpat]

Amen ❤ 2020 was a joke to push us out , had to come back from Mexico to handle business, I have a few more months left , not returning after this trip . Been depressed everyday since being here , I didn't know depression could last this long . No nature , can't breathe in this Texas heat , and walking anywhere is not an option . Hate it here

I live off grid in America. Got news for you buddy, if you don't change your mindset you will just take your misery with you. I work hard but for myself. Life is good.

[@GreenEnvy.]

What mindset? It's too expensive in America; that's not a mindset, that's a fact. Misery doesn't follow when you leave to a better country.

I want to leave the US too, but, foreigners aren't allowed to purchase land in Thailand; that's why it's a 'No' for me.

[@alansapilipinas]

You can buy a condo for like 30-60K cash. Probably even less. You can get an apartment for 200/m.

[@Dream_more_age_less]

@@alansapilipinas Ok, but you cannot own the actual land under the structure

[@C1K450]

⁠@@alansapilipinasyou still don’t own it though. Just the unit.

You don't own the land because you pay property taxes

Aww thanks for sharing your story. And how this can benefit most of us. Love that you are sharing this. Thanks! It makes sense people are happier outside America

[@MrElmoCA]

Happiness is a choice and u can be happy no matter where u are even in the US. Millions upon millions are trying to get in America on the southern border so it definitely offers something that other places don’t have. However, I’m glad u found someplace u like and are at peace. Much love to ya!!

USD 2.000 in Brazil, you are middle class, you don't need to live in Rio or São Paulo, but I live in Curitiba or Campinas or a smaller town such as Londrina Paraná, very good quality of life.

You are right. If you get outside of the big cities overseas, it's even better.

[@user-oq9ly8lr9z]

Good video and good points made. Traveled all over the world while in the Navy and after that and lived in Japan for 14 years. Americans need to seriously travel and see what the rest of the world has to offer.

I’m lucky to have a great job with all the benefits one could expect from a decent job a few decades ago, so I don’t see myself moving, however I get why people want to leave. Our society is crumbling and no one has an idea on how to solve it. Everyone is just pointing fingers it seems.

I am not leaving the states yet. But I am getting out of Fl. 2 bedrooms 1400 to 1500 plus.

[@JVPlayz96]

That's actually not bad for the time we're in now. My rent just went up by $50 so it'll be right under $1400 for a one bed one bath. I live by myself, it's a 711 Sq Ft unit but it does have a storage closet out on the patio and I get fiber internet as opposed to cable. I also get a $55 credit each month as long as I use more than 500 kWh of electricity. It's not a bad place but the rising costs do suck. The base rent used to be roughly under $1200 about 3 years ago.
