Hey, I actually did this! It was the best time of my life.
My aim was to migrate to south america, specialize in my career and get in/stay in shape.
I spent my days going to the gym, learning spanish, doing impromptu streams on twitch (I found a little community in my preperations to quit my job) , and I did travel to the country I wanted to migrate to and to NY to see a band that rarely plays live, visit my family in a different country and to visit my bud that lived in scandinavia.
I spent a month with my family preparing a portfolio.
I saved money during my career, about $16k over several years,and figured, if time is money, money is time.
No job, no clue. At the start the perspective of some others and me were that it felt like I just fell out of the sky and tried to integrate into society.
I figured I’d either do immersion learning for spanish, or succeed and set up my life here.
The job came fairly easily, one of the companies from my first wave of applications accepted me.

I’m happy to answer any questions.
What country was it? Are you still there?
Uruguay, still there.
Did you have a job there or a clue ? Or you went to search for it ?
No job, no clue. At the start the perspective of some others and me were that it felt like I just fell out of the sky and tried to integrate into society.
