If you could move your job anywhere in the world, where would it be?

Inspired by my coworkers who have been camped out in places from Miami to Santa Monica since March, where would you live if you could pick anywhere in the world?

 
Controversial

I've annoyed some people in political threads and, like the children they are, they lash out throughout the site via internet points. I wouldn't be too concerned about it. I have plenty of bananas.

Malta and Laguna Beach, why not both?

I knew a trading desk of about 20 people in NYC that decided that 'they didn't want to spend winter in NYC another year', so relocated to Hawaii for 6 months. Seemed like a sweet deal.

I think about how I want to take my kids boogie boarding (prelude to body boarding), snorkeling, and fishing on the weekends at my fav beaches. I feel like we’ve done everything already in SF for kids.

I have a friend who trades volatility in Hawaii. Wakes up really early.

Barcelona. Good weather, good food, beautiful women, beaches, mountains, what more could you ask for? Great surrounding landscape with good proximity to other European cities.

I love Barcelona for all the reasons you highlighted. Only wish is if the ocean water could be a few degrees warmer, would be an even more awesome beach scene. I went there in July and water was a bit chilly still. I went in but didn’t want to stay in for long.

anywhere in Japan really but the north would be great. Do they have onsen up there too? That would seal the deal for me

Absolutely Hokkaido has onsen. The snow monkeys hang out in hot water pools naturally.

Although I haven’t been yet, Kyushu around Fukuoka / Kumamoto might be my spot. Only downside Japan seems to have a more hub-based air flight system so I can’t find a direct flight from Fukuoka to Shanghai (there is to HK). I like warmer weather.

Como, Italy would be really nice, given the lake view, mountains, and architecture, as well as a great climate.

“Destiny is a gift. Some go their entire lives, living existences of quiet desperation, never learning the truth that what feels as though a burden pushing down upon their shoulders is really a sense of purpose that lifts us to greater heights. Never forget that fear is but the precursor to valor, that to strive and triumph in the face of fear is what it means to be a hero. Don’t think. Become.”
 

Surprised no one is mentioning smaller places.....wouldn't mind living in towns like Asheville, NC, Newport, RI, Santa Fe, NM, lots of options in Colorado, etc.

I'm a big fan of small but interesting towns. Small but without the backwoods hick element. There's really only a few places in the country that meet that niche.

 

Agreed. I would work remotely in Asheville, Portland, ME or Boulder, CO. Though honestly I could do my job from anywhere pre-COVID if I wanted to... I have chosen not to move to one of these locations because I've found there to be too much value in being in NYC from a professional standpoint.

Given that I'm trying to move into consulting from CF, I just couldn't imagine making that happen so far from a major market... hopefully I can when I am more senior in my career.

 

Girls are stunning there, and the food is delicious. But the locals can learn some manners man..

I was shocked by how expensive it was. We're talking NY prices sometimes for dinner.

 

Italy is a junk bond milken would make love to that indebted place

Any thoughts on Tahoe? Kind of wish I relocated there for COVID had I known in early March how much WFH I'd have.

Tahoe, I heard has a lot of real estate buyer demand. Small market so good if you own something there already.
