I am abroad in Asia (loosely defined) but in a country and situation conducive to working, not living. I intend to decamp for Europe or Asia-Pacific once I reach the appropriate level of savings; once there I will begin life in earnest. The countries I am looking the closest at are Sweden, Germany, Great Britain and Australia.
In a way, I am waiting out the economic storm in Europe. I would prefer to settle there rather than Australia. However, the economic scene is Europe is uninviting at the moment. Although I'll have plenty of money, I've no stellar ideas for starting a business and anticipate going to work for someone else in my adopted country.
My game plan is to take an advanced degree in my target country and use the degree as a means to finding employment, finagling a visa and fully integrating myself language-wise.
So, five years hence, hopefully I'll find myself in a corporate role abroad, earning a decent salary and unmarried but in a serious relationship with a native bird. I like larger, pulsing cities so perhaps I would settle in the capital city of one of the countries I've named.
The alternative to countries I named earlier would be Argentina. If I went, I would go as an entrepreneur, since wages are so low there.
I really feel like the expatriate life is the only way to live. Going home would be a defeat. I stay abroad from pride as much as any other reason. Roosh's recent posts have really inspired me, though I have been committed to this "foreign" path for years now...
Share your game plan.

What's your home country?
Is it that bad you don't want to live there?
