What is your dream destination city for relocation?

46
•
I’ve just moved to Shanghai. This is a dream come true for me. I'm curious to know about your dream destination. If you could relocate to any city in the world, which one would it be and why does it appeal to you?

Bali, for a while :)

@mario_sorgente Relocating to Bali can be an excellent choice, given its popularity among entrepreneurs

Considering Valencia or Malaga/Marbella for a while already. Lisbon was in the past in my list but it became extremely expensive and complicated for relocation.

@marina_bau Wow! I and my wife are considering Valencia. Have you ever been there?
Marina
@byalexai I've been and absolutely loved it. Good combo of mid-size city with calm districts and seacoast proximity. Prices are pretty affordable and when I compare prices for apartments (especially to buy) in Prague where i currently live and in Valencia, the last offers way better options. And also, amount of sunny days that i'm lacking in Prague is unbeatable in Spain.

@marina_bau Having visited Spain and found it delightful, I'm optimistic you'll find a great alternative to Lisbon.

Somewhere where the summer never ends. I really like South Africa, especially Cape Town

@marvin_maendle Living near the ocean offers an awesome, endless summer experience with its breathtaking beaches. Never been there, but I know it is a beauty
Marvin Mändle
@mary_rumyantzeva yes, for a kid which is grown up in a village near the alps the sea will always be kind of holiday feeling.

I would love to move to Singapore for somedays. But not forever. My current city is best for me:)

@girish_gilda Certainly, a temporary stay in Singapore could be a wonderful experience!

Indeed, the idea of relocating can seem daunting at first, especially when it involves overcoming language barriers and adjusting to a new culture. However, I believe that with careful planning and the right support, the process can be much more manageable. For instance, having reliable moving services is crucial for a stress-free transition. For those considering moving to or from the vibrant city of Los Angeles, services like affordable movers in Los Angeleshttps://affmov.com/ can greatly alleviate the stress associated with relocation. They provide the necessary logistical support to embark on this new adventure with peace of mind, ensuring that one can focus on settling in and enjoying the new city from the start

I've moved to Switzerland for a few months (quite near Lausanne). Got to say - the Swiss have it pretty worked out 🙌🏻
Mary Rumyantzeva, PhD
@nik_hazell Switzerland is magnificent and super organised indeed

@elena_malneva I've been over to Lauterbrunnen, Leukerbad, Interlaken, and Zurich in my camper van too :)

I would like to live near a forest and mountains.
Mary Rumyantzeva, PhD
@ixord Living near a forest and mountains sounds wonderful, and I personally find the fresh, earthy scent of the forest to be incredibly appealing.

Tokyo

@zignis Japan is great! Have you ever been there?
Sean Ward
Certainly right now its getting out of Los Angeles and California. Crime up. Tax up. Traffic up. Homelessness up. Dirtiness up. Drug use up. Total mess. Looking at other states such as Florida, Texas, Nevada, Tennessee. Anyone else recently leave or looking to leave LA?

@weansard I keep hearing good things about Fairhope in Alabama. I know its the 'deep south' but its supposedly California living without the bad stuff (like you mentioned).
Callum Jones
@weansard I had bias reservations about Alabama, but Fairhope is very different. Do check it out! (this is no paid ad haha)

Paris all day every day! Baguettes, cigarettes, and fashionable nihilism.
Soumil Rathi
For the next few years of my life, probably SF. The startup community there is probably unrivaled.
Dave-Anthony Smith
A lot of places. But next up I want to do Athens then Bangkok.
Ashley from Shadow
What a dream!! How was the move and which other cities have you lived in before?
Cardle John
Congratulations on your move to Shanghai, Mary! It's wonderful to see your dream becoming a reality. For me, Tokyo has always been a dream destination with its vibrant culture and apkero.net innovative spirit.
Anastasia Liamets
I’m dreaming about London, now planning the trip there to see how we feel there. And Barcelona (missing palms in Canada)
Jennifer McKnight
My dream city to move to is Paris.
Mary Rumyantzeva, PhD
@jennifer_mcknight Awesome! Have you been there?
Simran Kumar
I've always been drawn to the vibrant culture, history, and beauty of Turkey. Istanbul, in particular, seems like a dream destination for me with its unique blend of East and West.
KC Onrade
Dream destination for me would be Switzerland next to Japan, but for relocation -- that I haven't given much thought of.
