Residency is hard to get, and jobs are hard to get without residency, at least decent jobs are. I lived there from 2008-2013. The easiest way to be legal to live there is as a retired person,but,I'm a ways from that still lol

Yes that all sounds like what it would be like... I severely dislike those sort of loops... Awwwww retirement sounds nice but I've got aways to go as well. I wonder if I'll ever retire though...isn't that old school thinking?

I don't think I can retire from being an artist - but I can hopefully technically "retire" one day and at least earn the pension for all the money I put into it over the years! lol

I took a look at your page and it's really cool your an artist. Yah you can probably never retire from that profession but I wonder how your art will change at the point you "don't need to work."

It'll get bigger lol If I don;t need to worry about money, that means I won't need to worry about how long a piece takes- and I'd be able to move into a bigger studio where I could work on huge masterpieces that take a few years, destined more for public display or museums than private collections.

Ahh that makes good sense..maybe it will happen sooner than you think ;)
