what the fuck

once 130€ for whole house with garden in city?

In Venezuela.

Not accurate tho. That house must be in a state of abandonment or something like that.

But there are houses about 1k-5k

Hmm so powering down all my earned stake I can buy a house in a failed state in a civil war area?

I meant you can find houses in a good state around 1k-5k usd. There are ppl leaving the country and they usually sell their houses at those prices

I cannot strongly enough recommend due diligence regarding title potential to foreign persons in Venezuela, and particulars regarding such properties priced at these levels specifically. My spidey sense is all atingle.

Something's not right.

If you search for real property in Venezuela on the Century21.com site, you will find more than a dozen examples of homes offered for sale at prices below $1000 USD. While I have not further researched the title availed, and it seems certain to me that some fraud or other reason for pricing real property so low is involved, that's what is claimed by Century21.com.

hmm - Id prefer something away from cities in maybe georgia or albania..

We all have our preferences. Back when I was a kid, I read about the tepuis, I think they're called. Buttes that rise up hundreds of meters out of the jungle with sheer walls that have kept people off them for millenia. At the top there are ecosystems unknown to man, and that is largely true to this day, even though we have helicopters.

One of my dreams was to study the unique ecosystems on these lost worlds. I was always thrilled by jungles, the hot, steamy verdant, bustling masses of creatures, and places like Venezuela, Brazil, Indonesia, New Guinea, Borneo, and basically all of SE Asia, Central Africa, and S. America were on my dream list of places to explore and study life. I was raised in Alaska, on islands freshly exposed from the retreat of the glaciers, and while verdant and temperate, a wide variety of species just hadn't had time to find their way there.

Then I grew up and went to Texas. I discovered Palmetto Bugs, and Red Ants. I went to Houston, a massive city built on a swamp. At night it was ~45 degrees and 130% humidity. The air was overstuffed with water vapor, and I was the coolest thing in the environment at 37 degrees. Instead of being cooled by my sweat, water actually condensed out of the air onto my overheated body. It was life threatening, and I was from Alaska. Then I didn't ever want to go to a jungle for any reason.

I still look and remember my childhood dream.

that probably also plays into why I'd prefer Georgia/ maybe Armenia/ Albania over South-America/ Venezuela

also besides South America's climate, economics (georgia, armenia are no socialistic shitholes like south america), just the long way..
it is the "other side of the earth" to me - to georgia or albania I could theoretically ride with my oldtimer motorbike (If I ever get it back, same with my driving license - and my pain allows me to)

you could still study these ecosystems ! wouldnt be the best idea to live in them (untouched ecosystems) anyways :P
but yeah I see you - I'm also more of a cold boy, a viking..
would also tend north normally - but one of my companions wont allow that (he can't manage the cold anymore - even though cold is healing)

have you heard of the big caves in china with giant mammoth trees underground?
