Yea I concur on visiting our colonial oppressors. You aren't missing anything in London for sure.
Anyone been to Italy?

You want Switzerland. Arguably the most difficult country to try seek citizenship if you go that route. Though amazing healthcare , education , low population density , really friendly people , and the cleanest country I have ever stepped foot in.
Highly invasive little shits.Yea unfortunately it wasn't as good as it was 10 years ago. Only about a handful of shops in Rotterdam and the 2 I tried , one was a B+ , other was a C+. I guess it's a bit different outside of Amsterdam. Though Rotterdam is a beautiful city and I thoroughly enjoyed hanging for the day. Did you see the tropical parakeets that inhabit the Netherlands? I never saw them in Amsterdam in 2009 , but noticed them in Rotterdam flying around.
It makes no sense why they are even in the Netherlands. The weather is so crappy 6 months of the year.
They are in a lot of big European cities, imported from Pakistan decades ago to spruce up the outdoor gardens of rich folks.
It is based on what Americans deem as normal. But in terms of their wages to cost of living it's not as extreme as it seems. You also gotta pay for the nice part of town. Well it's the nicest part of Western Europe. I saw one homeless man in Zurich the entire time I was in Zurich. About 500,000 in Zurich and only 8.5 million in the entire country.
Have never noticed them anywhere other than Rotterdam. Did have someone say you see them in southern England which makes sense , since it's not far away.
Def gotta pay for those luxuries. I'm guessing if they are thinking of packing up and leaving for Europe they've got a nice nest egg and likely work from home so they can go wherever they want.
They are in Paris too and I am sure most likely a lot of other places in western Europe.
Cold weather doesn't bother them. Their home range extends into the Himalayas.
Yeah, my girlfriend lived in England for a bit, so I'm aware that it's nothing to write home about. I've only passed through.
I've heard great things about Prague, but I don't think I'd want to live there. I think I'd like Germany, but the missus wouldn't.

I did not. It was March though so the weather may not have been right for them. Pretty cool though
Prague is great. Czech Republic in general is an amazing country and everything is dirt cheap. Not all of them are fond of Americans though. Why no Germany for the old lady?
Spain is like Italy. Stick to coastal towns and it's really nice for vacation. The bigger cities are ok.
They are cool for 3-4 days each maybe. After that you have experienced it for the most part. Did you go to the flaming shot bar in Barcelona?
Fell over and passed out at the bar for about 15 seconds and puked all over the outside of the cab later that night. This was 11 years ago , so I am much wiser now.
