hi all.
Nowroozetoon mobarak. I might have the opportunity to move to a location of my choice in either europe or the middle east as an IT consultant. One of the first things I'm expecting to be asked is where I will be relocating to from my current home in north america.
I have never lived in eurpoe and haven't even traveled there much, though thanks to the internet I have good basic knowledge about most countries there. I need your opinion on countries and cities that you find appealing if you already had a job and made enough money for basic living.
some facts about me:
engaged, no kids.
HATE: winter, snow, rain, flat lands, busy and dirty cities, apartments(although I may not have a choice with my budget), taxes, party destinations, clubbing, racism/discrimination and public transit.
LIKE: beaches, moderate and sometimes hot climate, mountains, peaceful and scenic cities, high speed internet, beautiful women, historic sites, tolerant people, football (soccer), stadiums, cozy houses, driving my own car everywhere.
I can only speak English and Farsi but am eager to learn a new language once among people who speak it.
I'm also aware that financially Dubai is my best bet due to the tax-free salary in addition to the house and car allowance. This would enable me to save some serious money, but I'm willing to put this option aside for a couple of years in order to experience life in a more cultured environment.
Your opinion is much appreciated.
