[IWantOut] 19m Dubai->Bangkok/Panama City/Kuala Lumpur/Singapore/Mexico City
Hi guys, I was pretty confused on where I should go and I thought you guys could offer me advice.
I’m a 19 year old (online) business owner who makes around 5-10k usd consistently every month. I want to leave Dubai because I think I’ve spent enough time in this place, and I want out. Not to mention I’m not exactly fond of the culture here. I want a fresh start.
I should note I also hold Indian citizenship, but I’ve been born and raised up in Dubai. I would go back to India, and it’s not a bad place, but I don’t feel like I belong there. I don’t wanna build my life over there, and I’d like to generally stay away from my family there. I speak fluent English, and I’m prepared to learn the language of whichever country I’m going to.
One of the main things I don’t wanna face is racism, discrimination. I want to be accepted as a normal person, who isn’t discriminated against for something I could not choose, I.e my skin colour. I want to go to a place where I can be normal, where I can make friends, date, etc without being discriminated against. I also don’t want to go to a place where the politicians actively hate my existence. For what it’s worth, I didn’t face any outright discrimination or racism in Dubai, though there are subtle hints of it. But I can handle that. Social integration is the most important.
Also, I’d like to prefer somewhere that’s a city. It’s not a requirement, but it’s my own dream to own a comfortable studio in some high rise building. I am very much in love with these types of places, maybe because of where I was raised up in. Obviously, I’d prefer taxes also not being sky high. I can live with around 35%, but yeah i wouldnt want anything above 50%. But again, they’re not as important as social integration.
I was looking at Bangkok/ Panama City/ all the other options mentioned above, but if you guys have any advice on where else I could go, it would be appreciated. I largely believe USA and most of Europe is not what I’m looking for, and maybe somewhere multicultural would be amazing.
Thanks a lot in advance!
