Probably Canada, England, Australia, or New Zealand so I could integrate easily...  Brasil and Portugal also have an outside chance.

If I went to Japan, I will wreck dominance since I will just tower over everyone.


I would also love to go to Canada one day love the weather and the people!

How tall are you?

Also I agree with your second point untill you get covered in 5 foot of snow and are unabke to leave your house.

That's the crazy thing about us Canadians. 5 feet of snow doesn't stop us from getting out of our house or from driving 200km on that day.

Haha, you're right. Snow is not a big deal here. Even if we got 5 feet of snow, the schools are still open.

Question. Which country has the best education: New Zealand, Australia, or Canada?

I moved out of Poland when i was 16 and move to the UK, it was not my choice but i kinda like it here. Might move in the future but im not planning it at the moment 

I do like the US because of the diversity of the Country, i mean there are such differences beetween different parts, and the Americans i met at University were very safe. Canada seems pretty peacefull and chilled out so thats an option

Also like Japan it just seems like a cool place to live.

Denmark or the UK. Possibly the USA.

Denmark has the same style of living as Sweden but the mentality of its people is much better.

UK is great. I like Englishmen and I like the English culture.

USA is the land of opportunities. Everything there is cool. But it's also a bit risky. With bad luck you might end up in the gutter or get killed by a thug.


Out of curiosity, not knowing myself very much about the culture of Scandinavian countries, why do you say that the mentality of Danes is better than that of Swedes?

Danes aren't as pretentious as Swedes. Far less politically correct. More natural and real, they don't pretend to be "holier than thou" as much as Swedes do. And they're much more relaxed and tolerant. Tolerant in an honest way - let's say you deviate from the majority's behaviour, for example you got personal problems, or you come late for work, or you make mistakes, or you have a drinking problem etc - Danes won't point the finger at you, not talk behind your back, not discriminate and condemn you as much as Swedes do.

At the same time, and this might sound like a contradiction but it's not, Danish people are more proud of their country, more protective of it. They're not self haters like the Swedes.

Wasn't that controversial Muhammad cartoon made by some Danes?If so good for them for not being intimidated by Islamic terrorists.

You should note that your perception of Danes and Swedes might be altered by the time you spend exposed to them. You spend most of your day sorrounded by swedes, and probably seldom interact with Danes. After living for a while in Denmark and constantly interactng with Danes, you may discover many of the faults you atribute to Swedes in them also.

That's certainly true. It's hard to evaluate a society in a fair way by just watching it from the outside.

if i ever left the US it would be either cuz of a job or family (or education, though i doubt it), or for the adventure of being somewhere else...anywho

Japan: i love the culture and the language (which i hope to learn someday, along with chinese, german, latin and maybe russian or dutch). on top of that, it just seems like a cool place.

New Zealand: a nice, temperate climate (or so i hear) with a beautiful geography, environment, and beaches. i would live someplace with a warmer climate, but still a good amount of rainfall. hopefully a quiet and secluded place along the beach...

Australia: a country that has always fascinated me, it's culture seems great and the biodiversity and animals are astounding.

if i couldn't get to any of those places, probably the UK or a country on the mediterranean.
