Asia, Australia or south America?

Technically North America! But people don't tend to think of Mexico that way.

It's not trouble free, not by a long shot. I have family connection to here though and I recon Mexico is not very likely to partake in WW3 in any meaningful way, so should be safe from what I worry is coming soon for Europe.

For now tho, I'm definitely less safe than my friends and family back in Sweden. In the short term at least. I don't think Putin is going to change that this year, and probably not next year either, but honestly who knows.

How would you feel if ww3 never happens and you moved from Sweden to Mexico for nothing? It seems like a major step down except if you have Mexican relatives

I dunno, Mexico is a pretty great place. You could do a lot worse than Mexico. Many people have moved there “temporarily” and then never went back to their native country.

The lifestyle is legit. No one requires you to go to the famously sketchy parts.

		Still, you're giving up on your whole life for an hypothetical event that's been prophesied since the 50s. If you wanted to move in the first place or had family there why not, but if the sole reason is fear... Imagine leaving the US for Mexico in 1962 because the "cold war is about to go warm"

> Sweden to Mexico for nothing

Unless you like to ski, and the long dark winters, weather in mexico is an upgrade, except for the occasional hurricane.

Meh, it's sunny and nice here, I'll feel pretty good regardless. Living on the beach is underrated! And it's been great connecting a bit more with my wife's family.

Gotta focus on the bright side, and I do love the climate here!

I could do with a little less cartel parties that go on through the night at the neighbours house. They're loud and it's not like I'm gonna go knock on that particular neighbours door, knowing fully well who the guests are...
