I would love to live and work in different countries, for real

I want to live and work in different countries, but not in some shitty hostel or in a hotel, I want to do the equivalent of my job. I think I’d learn a lot about the country and the people if I was to do a real job instead of a traveller’s job.

When I visit different countries I want a real experience, not a traveller’s experience. What do the people really think and what do they really do on a daily basis?

Some people do

I don’t know how they do it, but some people have done corporate jobs in many different countries. I don’t know if this is for the same company or not, it’s probably a mixture.

I’m finding it hard enough to move to 1 different country, let alone multiple. They just to apply and speak the language but it’s not that simple. I got interest from France and Dubai, but it didn’t lead anywhere and I wasn’t 100% sure about going.

I want to be around the real locals

When you travel to a different country and live like a traveller or a nomad then you get that experience. You’re in your little bubble and you don’t see much of what it’s really like unless you really go out of your way.
