I plan to live abroad starting end of summer, after three years of nearly constant backpacking. I am ready to live in one place for a while, but will want to work or be involved in some sort of daily activity where I am feeling constructive, with some sort of routine and responsibility and in a social environment. My criteria for where to live include nightlife, weather, being able to work as a USA citizen without too much headache, and I will also want to take language lessons as time goes on. I have a few options looming on the horizon right now. They include Buenos Aires, Seoul, Melbourne, and even considering places like Tel Aviv or other cities on the Mediterranean. I need some pros and cons of each place.

You have been backpacking for 3 years your first post is asking about places to live? Did you not find some places that spark your interest during your 3 year backpacking tour?

Plus this is a very vague question.. theres so many variables that are required to give you a good answer. Even then it all boils down to personal prefrence...

I have learned alot from this fourm an im abroad in a awesome place because of the fourm. I asked some vague questions on here in the begining an still do... but i atleast read an made post on other peoples threads before i made my own thread. All these threads started with a 1 post count lately are driving me nutts

Good luck on your travels i hope you find what your looking for
