It was fun being stationed in other parts of the world. With that experience I could see it being fun to relocate. But there's lots of drawbacks I didn't know or think of. Maybe it's best being a complacent taken care of American. There's probably issues with living overseas but maybe it's worth it in some ways.
So it is tempting to daydream about relocation for me. Maybe this comes from being stationed in Germany. Or being stationed in Georgia. But there's the reasons why it wouldn't work and heeding those.
In other countries you hear stories of Americans getting in trouble. No freedom of speech. Or it's difficult to get full citizenship going through that process. Or not knowing the language there.
Also it could be difficult to get VA healthcare in a foreign country. And not knowing the currency. Or issues like if prostitution is legal. I shouldn't take for granted American luxuries.
I am in a first world country. There's plenty of cities to daydream about in the US too. I don't know anyone in other countries. Who would be the new people with power over me the new psychiatrist?
