@Gina I mean, Groningen is also pretty nice - but it only solves your problems partially 😅
@jbouter I've been to Groningen, we ehm have different definitions of nice 😅

@angelomassaro isn't Croatia really expensive nowadays?
@Gina Like many places in Europe, Croatia is dealing with high inflation, but with some budgeting, you can still live comfortably, especially if you earn an IT salary from a foreign company. You can also find a house (15-20km from the seaside) with a decent garden for under €300k, if that fits your budget

At this point I'm pretty convinced I need to buy a campervan and just travel around 😅 I've only seen a fraction of the continent.
I can't think of any scenario that doesn't come with a cost. Every scenario means digging into my savings.
8/n
@Gina Switzerland would be the expensive solution , but at least we generaly have at least 6 months where you can be outside at 20c+ . big towns tend to be more center lefts, public transports mostly works , but you need a local job to afford the living cost. and ownership aint simple either. I'm currently also ready to move anywhere for a job, but my homebase will , most likely, fallback to .ch in the end. Ping if you have specific questions , might have answers ;)

@gryzor the weather, it's crowded, zero nature, super expensive, ugly architecture outside of the main tourist areas (look up "rijtjeshuis"), taxes are insane, shitty healthcare, low quality food, very restrictive policies leading to immediate fines for everything, and most of all, lack of sunshine.
