lol I love how no matter the topic, every thread in this fucking forum is always laced with the utmost cynicism. ANYWAY like I said this is years down the road and I just wanted to see if anyone had done it/known anyone who had done it and could offer some advice and what not. This isn't a "I'm leaving to amsterdam next week, anything I need to know?". It's all purely hypothetical, years down the road, and there's a high possibility it will never go down. Also, this isn't about partying, it's about more than that, only partying definitely helps. It's more about being drawn to a different culture and state of mind. Freak, I'm looking for somewhere that has a certain "joie de vivre"... it's inexistant in my hometown. And like I said it's all puerly hypothetical for me, so just give me what you know and leave the "how young and stupid are you?" out of it |
I've known plenty of people who have done it, and its VERY hard. I can't stress that enough. From being on the other side (the EU citizen) I see and hear all the bullshit you have to go through. Its not like you can just pack up and move so easily. A lot, and I do mean A LOT of people fail at doing this.
You're also talking about moving to two countries who are notoriously difficult to become a citizen in. I'm fairly sure the UK is easiest (right now, anyway) and you should probably stay there first, become a citizen then branch out.
Why don't you do a work-study program in one of those countries? I can tell you vacationing there for a month or so is WAY different from living there.
