A Homestead Journey | August 5, 2026



Millions of Americans are packing and leaving, and more people are revealing where they’re going and why they’re making the move. From rising costs to changing priorities and the search for a different way of life, Americans are reconsidering where they want to live. But where are they actually going — and what’s driving this growing trend?

    It might not go so well for you ignorant Americans. If you wanted to send your kids to government schools and collages you don't understand what is going on. The 5th guy is so lost and stupid…LOL.

    They thought people would actually believe that “we don’t wanna leave “ propaganda they were pushing with all the foreign visitors posting about how good Popeyes was during fifa.

    I think people need to be patient right now give it 4 months and see if you like the out come if so you have to give it a year from then if not, get the h*ll out of here . If you like free markets and Capitalism stay. If you want something else go!!! Your not wanted.

    I would love to walk away from “all this” , but I’m elderly, have no valuable skills, and couldn’t afford the rent in most of Europe, any more than I can here. Not much to offer.

    But if you have the smarts and skills, and the time to build a new life, then go. You deserve better than what this government can offer. Go before they draft you, or let you die outside the hospital door, or on the streets. But before you pick your new home, don’t forget to ask yourself ‘what can I offer my new country’?

    I’m from Poland, lived in multiple EU countries, live in the US now. The US is a land of opportunity for a reason, life is what you make it. Good luck to all the people that are building a life both here and abroad.

    Left 16 years ago to South America. Right after the 2008 financial meltdown. And now it’s worse. Visited a few months ago and was absolutely floored on just the cost of daily food. Lousy food to boot. Not to mention my day to day mental state. Happily retired, just like I thought it would be. Up there, impossible.

    What if all the citizens from other countries banned together as one huge take over? 5 10 countries invade 1 country all at once maybe 50 countries marching around the world restoring order 1 by 1? 🤯 Instead of NWO, NWTO?

    I’m 70. I worked hard from the age of 16 to have a good life. The light at the end of the tunnel was retirement. I had a nervous breakdown. I’m on pills for anxiety and depression. I gained weight and now live in pain. So what is my retirement actually like? Worry about finances. Worry about losing my liberties. Worry about violence. Worry about food. Worry about the chaos of our government. Hopelessness. No way would my husband consider leaving the US, because he is in complete denial. I dream of some place warm where we could live well. Maybe Costa Rica. But, it’s too late for me. If you are on the fence, leave now while you can.

    Darn right. I can see the relief and calmness in the faces of the people who have moved away. The food here is so terrible now. I just spent a thousand dollars on meds and doctors (with medicare can't believe it).

    Some of these places are a lot more expensive than what they are saying! I’ve been to Spain and trust me, you can’t live in 20 Euros a week unless all you eat is rice and beans!

    If the US economy and dollar collapses, so does your expat life. No matter what happens and where you are, things are going to get messy. With that being said, I wish everyone the best.
