I have an academic job opportunity in Victoria, British Columbia. Please help me before I make a very big decision. Tell me more about the area!

My job offer is in downtown Victoria. I hear the weather can be nice even though nearby can be very wet and cold. I love nature, people, and many aspects of Canadian government and Canadian citizens. I speak English, Spanish, and German. I'm looking for the real cost of living (taxes, food, gas, recreation, housing in or out of the city). I love hiking. I am a middle-aged, single male. Thank you, in advance, for any advice you can offer!

What is it like living in Dresden (Germany)?

I am considering moving to Dresden next year to start my PhD and wanted to know what the general living situation is in the city.

Since I am a member of the LGBT+ community, I would also like to know how progressive the city is. I heard the stereotype of people saying that the city is more conservative due to being eastern Germany, but I wanna know from people who actually live there or lived there before.

Thank you 😊

Santa Barbara cost of lving

Is there anyone in the group living near Santa Barbara?

What kind of income is considered adequate for a couple there? I’ve received a somewhat modest unofficial offer, and I see that apartment rents are very high—around $5k. What would be a reasonable salary level?

Also, since it’s a startup, I’m unsure about its stability. Is there any way to verify if the company is solid? It wouldn't be ideal to leave my current job only to have things go south at the new company after just a few months.

Thanks in advance.

Linz, Austria - how's life there

I am 4+ years away from retirement. I've lived my entire adult life in the US, but raised in both Canada and USA. I am also a EU citizen (Ireland) through my grandparents. I will be 60 at retirement age.

Our daughter has fully emigrated to Germany and we are looking at being closer to her but Austria is more affordable than Baveria. I've been to Austria a few times and am going back in Nov and March to sort pregame house/apartment hunting. Oh, and Vienna is an option too but it seems really far from Munich and Insbruck is at the high end of what we could afford.

I've never been to Linz but all the searches keep telling me to check it out.

Like I said, I'll be 60, my pension will be in the 6 figures and I speak basic German. I'd love to hear from expats (American or Canadian).
