Hello,

We are a couple from the Germany and are wanting to live a more simple and calm life. We are looking at countries where we can move relatively easily with a EU pasport. Our idea is to start a homestead/hostel/community/family. One of us has a Masters degree. But we are really not interested in working an official job. Ideally, we would like to live in Tasmania or New Zealand, but for such countries one needs to have a job offer and work fulltime. For us this is not an option. We have worked the last years to save up & now it is time to retreat a bit. A few hectares would be ideal (and we can build a simple house), or an older house with at least 5000-10.000 m2.

These are factors we consider per country:
-Relatively easy visa process
-Max. 30.000 EUR for a piece of land or house with some land.
-Temperate climate
-Not too much pollution and chemtrails
-A safe and stable country. Preferably no stream of immigrants.
-Climate change influence...?
-Enough rain and sun (for gardening & solar energy).
-Not too many rules and regulations. (for instance, forcing kids to go to school or get vaccinations etc).

Considering these factors, which of these countries could you recommend (or not)?
Or maybe tips for other countries/regions?

-Bulgaria
-Slovakia
-Czech
-Ukraine (hills, north west)
-Poland (hills, south)
-Baltic country
-Finland
-Northern Spain
-Central Portugal
-Azores
-Mexico
-Chile
-Ecuador
-Brazil
-Paraguay
-Costa Rica
-Philippines
-Thailand

Hey Sophie, I don't know much about outside the US but we have several members that have lived in some of the countries you listed, hopefully one of them sees this thread and has some feedback for you.
