Me, in my fantasies.

Sadly I'm tightly mortgaged and in a very high cost of living area in the US.

My plan is to move to Europe so I can cut my cost of living in half, not stress over health care, and eat real food instead of fake American chemicals. Need a few more years ..

In Spain I’m paying only 70 euro per month for the most expensive private healthcare plan. I don’t have public healthcare so I can’t compare but the private plan has been excellent. You get a private room at top clinics if something happens to you.

However rent here is literally more than minimum wage after taxes so that is something to consider.

If you want the best healthcare in the EU go to The Netherlands. Though food is meh over there, over 70% is ultra processed.

Good luck, just remember (speaking as an European): the grass is always greener.
