If you could live anywhere....

Actually, that last house I linked to was too big for my taste. This would place would be perfect:

I reckon a few hours of remote IT work in the morning, and off hiking the mountains in the afternoon, followed by a couple of pints of real ale in the local pub in the evening. Life couldn't get better than that. I just need to find a million bucks from somewhere and I'm sorted. -

Does that include an unlimited budget?
No. Cost matters. This is freedom to move. Not "you are now a billionaire".
-
Well I can dream, can't I? I may have a problem in that my salary precludes the ability to buy a home in some of the most desirable places in the world.

That's why I mentioned Montevideo - the lowest cost jet setting city in the world. All the amenities of London or New York at a tiny fraction of the price.

That sounds good. I'll have to learn Spanish and check my bosses are ok with me remoting in to work, but otherwise I hope to see you there in a few years time. We can meet up for a few beers after work.
-
We've talked about moving there before. Basically same time zone as here but amazing access to stuff at a really low price. And Buenos Aires is only like 45 minutes away.

I have a few:Honolulu, Hawaii.
Glasgow, Scotland
And a few places in the south, mostly the Carolinas. -
But if I were a billionaire......
I would buy my own island, have a yacht (like a small oceanliner) and just live like Richard Branson and buy my own railroad like Buffet did.

Well the closest I've been to Europe would be Bahrain/Dubai... So I would love to work from the UK somewhere, or Spain/Italy.
Tokyo, Hong Kong, Singapore if I need to work in a "hub", but would take remote Thailand/Philippines for the culture and dirt cheap living.

@joyfano has been educating me as to the cost of living in the Philippines. So different than NYC

I would love to travel everywhere. But live nope just wanna find a warm place to live here in the states.
