Love your sponsors. Great stuff for travelers. Now I am NOT a traveler anymore. But some of these companies belong in the toolkit of determined nomads. This is the esim, right? Varieties for a country all the way up to "global"?
The only thing I would add is that the Georgian government has recently moved closer to Russia - some people claim the current government was installed by Russia. That has caused quite a bit of political turmoil there, as the Georgian people are not happy with the situation at all. It's hard to say how that is all going to play out.
Thailand is now 60 days visa exempt with a 30 day extension available. You can do a border run for another 60 day visa exemption with a 30 day extension. Whether you can do that a third time in the same year is up to the discretion of the immigration officer. If you want an O retirement visa, it is possible to do it by yourself, but I highly recommend using a visa agent, they make things go much more smoothly. When I talked to one, a multi entry O visa will be about $1000 for the initial visa and about $500 for annual renewals. They can also make it really easy to open a bank account and get a drivers license.
First off I'm not planning to depart the frozen prairies to live anywhere else. Most of the countries on your list are sort of on my list of places I would like to visit as a tourist. However, none have yet risen to must travel go to yet. I did take advantage of a 90 day tourist visa to stay in Japan earlier this year. Wasn't long enough, so I'll just be forced to return again and again. I've taken advantage of some of Alina's suggestions on how to make traveling to and being able to stay more economically viable. Her advice was sound. So, if I was looking at relocating, I would definitely be following this lady's advice cause she knows of what she speaks.
Long ago I wanted nothing more than to visit Japan. I was so into it, I was hunting for all the Japanese movies I could find. Lost Paradise. Ringu. Anyone know Ringu?
The list of places are wonderful. . We are love Georgia. Have you heard that Georgia Police are cracking down on protesting ,violating human rights. What is happening to a country we love? Nevertheless, Alina you do your homework. Thank you for the great info. Want to take this time to wish you Happy Holidays !🎄🎄 to you and your family Hopefully , Santa 🎅 will be good to you and help clear the way to Bulgaria .As always, sending you much love❤ from Harriet, Jim and Yuki
Thanks! I'll have to look into some of your location-specific content, but was curious about language barrier in the other countries (except Philippines, which you noted) for English speakers.
Thanks for the video Alina. I really like Vlora in Albania. The Lungomare is lovely as well as the old town in the centre. An airport will be in operation from the spring of 2025 so exciting times ahead for this city.
I just watched her Tirana video. She looked just RAVISHING in that video! She never looks "ordinary" but the light or something just was so flattering.
Hello, Alina. I'm glad to see your new video. Unfortunately, I have not been to Bulgaria and Romania. This summer I traveled to European countries. From Eastern European countries, I visited Poland, the Czech Republic and Hungary. It was easiest in Poland, where the locals also know English. I was also saved by knowing Russian and a little Ukrainian, so I partially understood Polish and Czech. Thanks for the video and for the code. Happy New Year to you.😘♥️👍✌️🎊 Your Huseyn is from Los Angeles 🇺🇸
Actually as of a few months ago visa free status was raised to sixty days in Thailand for Canada the United States and many other countries. I am there at present, arriving about two weeks ago and received 60 days visa free. At the airport they asked me the length oof my visit and I stated sixty days and was given that amount. You can extend by another month by paying 1,900 Bhat at an immigration office. You can do one border run in a 12 month period and start this process over. There is another recent visa option I am looking into for Thailand called the LTR, long term resident but I may not quite meet the income requirement. It is apparently a ten year visa if you can meet the requirements
Thanks Alina for that informative video .I thought you might be moving to the US .Have a Happy Holiday Season with mom and dad and Happy New Year .Thought you might do a video over the Holidays .
It truly is nice as a U.S. citizen to be able to stay in both Albania and Georgia for up to a year. I've stayed in both for more than 90 days, and it is so much less stressful than having to leave everywhere else I'm visiting within three months. (I'm slow traveling visa-free, mostly in Europe.) Unfortunately, I don't like either of them enough to stay there for a year, but that's just personal taste, as I completely understand why others do.
Great info Alina. I have friends who moved there from Ontario to Panama, 1.5 yrs now and they love it there ,1/2 the cost to live and stress free living they have told me. And Wife and I will be going next yr after our Italy trip. Italy also is one the best places to retire or relocate, but please learn Italian language it will benefit you 100%. Also please keep in mind there are other ways to travel with out passports, think outside the box , the earth doesn't belong to Government it belongs to the people. Ask the amish ,secrets you are not told .Cheers
I'm one of the lucky ones that can move, but dating is a priority for me, so those countries are great, but I also need to consider the dating market there.
Plan B, I was considering georgia, montenegro, malaysia, and for plan C to add residency in the future, paraguay offers a lot for working expats like us
Alina - Always informative! I noticed in an early shot the Thai blogger Tah Jetymon; curious, do you know if she still creates content as she seems to have nothing posted in ages? Thanks.
Panama is very nice, especially the new town, modern and clean. But the cost of living is not among the lowest in the region. In any case, good luck to you and happy holidays!🎄🧑🎄🎉
If you are not born in the USSR, that Latin alphabet could be a real boon. I TRIED in 2007 to grasp Cyrillic without much success. Wish I were a traveler to just do a couple weeks in Romania.
Personally I wouldn't say Bulgaria or Romania is 'easy' for Canadians or Americans to move to (though retirement visa options are relatively straight forward). For EU people, of course, super easy :)
@JimMork-r9u Bulgaria is the origin of the Cyrillic alphabet and wasn't part of the USSR.... BTW I have struggled too and thought I'll never get it until I found the right method on you tube. I think coming from the latin script the only way to "re" or unlearn (because of the similar looking letters) is by way of association. The letter Г for example stands for g like in golf. Think of it as a gallow..... Or the letter Р is R in our script (so confusing) it helps to think of a wilted Rose, which drops its head, and so forth... Once I got the knack and started reading/recognising words (to my great regret I don't speak Russian or any other slavic language) it was so much fun....and really helps when travelling.....
My dear Alina, did you ever think about the TN visa and going to States? I recently travelled all the way to Floria and life was much cheaper than Toronto 😢 we spend so much money in this city… Also, please share your gorgeous creamy / beige eye shadow 😍🙏🏻🙏🏻 what brand is it ? (You always looks so pretty)
I'm one of those retirees living on my Social Security and pension income. But we seniors get trapped in the healthcare system in America, so that's another item that factors into our residency decision. After age 65, Medicare covers a lot of our medical expenses but only in the US, not abroad. And we have to pay extra for prescription drug coverage, dental, vision care and other services. It would be interesting to compare the cost and quality of healthcare in these countries to the US and Canada.
Yeah fair enough. I guess it all depends how serious of health issues you have an if all your family and friends in the US. Much harder for most people to move abroad if they don't have a social support system in the new place.
For those of us who cannot handle very hot and very humid climate, Panama, Thailand and Philippines are out of the question. It's a shame because South East Asia is such an amazing place !!
Was planning to finally move to Thailand last year after numerous visits, but fell in love with Cambodia...certainly less developed than Thailand though not as backward as I'd imagined..a great deal of English is spoken, the US dollar is used and the cost of living can be super reasonable...as a retiree I got a 1 year visa which can be renewed for 360 through an agent - surprisingly with no questions re finances asked at all...I would say though that Cambodia is probably for the more adventurous retiree.
Georgia is definately not straight forward right now, But if it keeps stabilizing from the 20th onward then in a year absolutely. If The Prices keep rising is a good sign lol
@@AlinaMcleod political unrest - which should be mostly over with by the 20th, if nothing big happens. so technically just clean up after the 20th - but i personally would wait atleast 6 months before permanently moving (wait and see.)
I would love to move out of Canada to somewhere affordable. I have a work from home job. But my employer wants me to work in Canada, although - most of my team, including my manager, works from the US.
Lol we hear that all the time too about tourist visas. No matter how many times we keep telling people Mexico is starting to crack down on people living off of tourist visas (and an actual residency is a useful thing to have more multiple reasons) , they don't believe us.
My personal downsides to the Philipeans; cyclones, earthquakes, volcanos, & tsunamis. You can have multiple events annually! Other than those naturally occurring disasters I have heard that it is fantastic. 😮 Downside to Albania for me is that it is a Islamic country & that it is developing. ( outhouses, electric grid reliability is a ??? In my mind, never heard anything about it having good public transportation) Downside of Panama in my opinion; it's stinking hot in many places, it's just little less expensive than living in the Upper Midwestern USA, it rains alot there. ( may as well stay in the Upper Midwestern USA on that note, lived near & in the Upper Midwest all my life & never knew that I lived in a temperate rain forest until the last 3 years ago) Thialand has too much plus heat, lots of steaming hot weather. Georgia is currently too Russian friendly for me. Other than Putin friendliness, it sounds like a great place. ( let's face it the man does have a good looking hair cut) With that I got to get ready for work.
Actually, I love visiting and staying in Islamic countries (I always avoid touristy areas) the warmest, most helpful people imaginable. I am a Westerner, female....I was like this decades ago; then I was sent on a survey mission to Algeria (civil war just had started) and was healed from my prejudices..... I consider myself very lucky.
Shit easy to move to.. Svalbard.. You just go. Svalbard is special, since a citizen of any country that signed the Svalbard treaty can just move there... But, maybe not the nicest warmest place you can go to? :D
@@AlinaMcleod We can laugh, but I've watched videos with the destination of Svalbard. Not "walking videos" per se. More aviation videos where pilots fly there.
Good morning god's mother I'm happy to see you good health and safe and thanks for sharing this video God bless you all ways and your family merry Christmas and Slava Ukraine from Philippines ❤😊
Good review! Besides economic and logistical considerations, ease of cultural assimilation should also be on the list. Monocultural/monoracial societies like China and Japan and much of Sub Saharan Africa may not suit you if you look like you don’t belong there, you will have a hard time being accepted and feeling at home there. Make sure you will be happy living in your target country because quality of life is about intangibles people don’t stop to consider that affect how you will spend your life abroad. If you have weighed the pro and cons and are happy with your choice, it might turn out to be your field of dreams! Don’t go into a move blindly and like Alina suggests, some places may be a better fit for you than others. Best wishes! 😊
The main problem for Americans and Canadians, living in another country, is their inability to learn a foreign language. And the reason is in their education systems, which are simply terrible. To get an idea of what I'm talking about, find on TH-cam "Miss Teen USA 2007 - South Carolina answers a question". Alina, fortunately, has a Slavic background, she is fluent in Russian, so there won't be any language problems in Bulgaria, because Russian and Bulgarian are quite close Slavic languages.
Isn’t Bulgaria the country where one of their largest issues is the educated under 30 are leaving and not coming back? Govt corruption is also a major issue. It’s a place to visit, not live.
Of course it has its problems and I wouldn't really recommend it for someone who wants to work for a company in the local economy. But if you are a remote worker or you want to start your own company and employ locals for a good wage (who a lot of times are highly educated and speak fluent English), very attractive.
@ I really do wish you the very best and I find your channel to be very interesting and informative, however I firmly believe Canada is the best country on the planet to live and raise a family if that’s in your future. I realize I’m “old school” in my thinking. That being said I graduated from university in the mid 80’s and was faced with a terrible job market after a decade of hyperinflation. I chose to go north to remote Canadian communities because there were good paying jobs and tax breaks. Within 2 years I was offered a phenomenal (for my age and experience) job offer in Toronto that I refused due to the high cost of housing
I did not want to be a slave to the banks for the rest of my working life to own a home. Instead I met my future wife, we worked together in a remote community and established a great down payment for a home and we initially settled down in Ottawa where housing was much more affordable. We are now retired and enjoy travelling. To summarize there are a lot of opportunities in Canada for people like yourself who are mobile and enjoy something different.
Bulgarian/American currently living in Panamá.If not a pensionado one need to buy property and obtain residency here.Good airport in Panamá city,gasoline is 82 cents a litre,electricity is 25-30 $ a month,rent is much cheaper outside Panama City.
By the powers of Vulcan, I wish I could cause lava to spew from the south Atlantic, forming a new island for me to establish my own country! May it be filled with gold, too! Then I'd guarantee my citizens free healthcare, insurance, social security, and a home!❤😂
I am surprised Vietnam is not on your list. Vietnam has good food, a low cost of living and it's very safe. As for the Philippines, although it has really nice people, has a problem with crime, particularly pickpocketing. In Cebu, I was warned by my hotel not to carry more than $30 when I went to the market.

The 365 day stay in Albania for Americans is true, but what was left out is the need to leave for 90 days after you’ve resided there for the 365 days.

Which African country can you suggest Americans or Canadians can move to
OMG how cute 😍 is this 👧
The main problem for Americans and Canadians, living in another country, is their inability to learn a foreign language. And the reason is in their education systems, which are simply terrible.

Its more fun in the Philippines
Isn’t Bulgaria the country where one of their largest issues is the educated under 30 are leaving and not coming back? Govt corruption is also a major issue. It’s a place to visit, not live.
Of course it has its problems and I wouldn't really recommend it for someone who wants to work for a company in the local economy. But if you are a remote worker or you want to start your own company and employ locals for a good wage (who a lot of times are highly educated and speak fluent English), very attractive.
@ I really do wish you the very best and I find your channel to be very interesting and informative, however I firmly believe Canada is the best country on the planet to live and raise a family if that’s in your future. I realize I’m “old school” in my thinking. That being said I graduated from university in the mid 80’s and was faced with a terrible job market after a decade of hyperinflation. I chose to go north to remote Canadian communities because there were good paying jobs and tax breaks. Within 2 years I was offered a phenomenal (for my age and experience) job offer in Toronto that I refused due to the high cost of housing
I did not want to be a slave to the banks for the rest of my working life to own a home. Instead I met my future wife, we worked together in a remote community and established a great down payment for a home and we initially settled down in Ottawa where housing was much more affordable. We are now retired and enjoy travelling. To summarize there are a lot of opportunities in Canada for people like yourself who are mobile and enjoy something different.
My former boss plans to retire to Panama (from the U.S.).
Bulgarian/American currently living in Panamá.If not a pensionado one need to buy property and obtain residency here.Good airport in Panamá city,gasoline is 82 cents a litre,electricity is 25-30 $ a month,rent is much cheaper outside Panama City.
Soviet-era bureaucracy can be annoying, but nothing is worse than corruption
The US border is open … come on in!
By the powers of Vulcan, I wish I could cause lava to spew from the south Atlantic, forming a new island for me to establish my own country! May it be filled with gold, too! Then I'd guarantee my citizens free healthcare, insurance, social security, and a home!❤😂
I am surprised Vietnam is not on your list. Vietnam has good food, a low cost of living and it's very safe. As for the Philippines, although it has really nice people, has a problem with crime, particularly pickpocketing. In Cebu, I was warned by my hotel not to carry more than $30 when I went to the market.
Vietnam is a communist country. You should not move in such a country where your basic human rights can come under attack any tine, unexpected.
The only country i like is Spain.
HA you can move on a tourist visa IF YOU'RE A BILLIONAIRE! i cant believe people thought you can move JAJAJAJAJJA too many morons out there. christ.
