American fitness chains pester the customer with a questionnaire so that the product can be sold to him as expensively as possible before there is any thought of answering his questions. Horrible. And then all the superfluous stuff like coffee and films, dear God, who cares?
This modest and small gym is mixed, and I liked it immediately. After the work out, I could turn to one of my favourite activities just around the corner.

Thank you for this sad tale; I find the adjective very appropriate, because my sympathy is not conditional on the fate not being self-inflicted. Otherwise, soldiers who had half their bodies blown off by an IED could be laughed at as idiots, because who else would let themselves be transported to a country where they have to walk or drive over IEDs?
Those who are professionally involved in wealth managegement are of course at an advantage in financial planning.
MBTI TJ types like to plan extensively, and the more anxious and fussy someone is, the more likely they are to be put off by the adventure of juggling two countries. Should we always do only what seems reasonable?
I can imagine that people who don’t come from a European welfare state find it easier to plan, because they are used to being more or less responsible for everything themselves.
 
Are we not dealing with two brilliant welfare states that lovingly care for their renegade sons once they have managed to return? Well, one cannot expect more than a modest standard of living. Citizens of EU states can try to find a more attractive member state that offers more.
 
I’m sure that is the best solution for most people. I find it highly invigorating to spend two months during the European winter in a megacity in Thailand. Not because I have a preference for tropical heat or like to sit around on the beach, but because I immerse myself in a completely different world when it gets gloomy at home.
If I have an extra month, I go to another country, because after two months my Thailand needs are covered for now. Nevertheless, homesickness always sets in the day before the return flight, but homesickness for Thailand! When you talk to the people who are sitting at the departure gate, strangely silent, and who will soon have to go back to work in a European office, you realise how many others feel the same way – they would gladly do without the return flight and everything that follows. Having said that, I should add that I have repeated this routine often enough and am now interested in less tourist-crowded countries. Yes, decades ago Thailand must have been fantastic.
I guess 3 x 2 months Thailand would be too much for me, 2 x 2 months might be ideal if the weather was reasonably bearable in the extra two months. Of course, with a stay of only about a month, three visits make sense – three most pleasant breaks during the year!
On the other hand, permanent residence has the advantage of relationship continuity and better opportunities to get to know country and language.
Some people are not particularly flexible either and can hardly imagine living in a completely different society to which they would necessarily have to adapt somewhat at least. Like the depressed acquaintance whose depression has the simple reason that the best years of his life with his twink are over; he has enough money but not enough adaptability to settle down in a country with more accessible twinks.
