Yh abaayo,im from a city called Melbourne which is on the south east coast of the island.Come through,im the sure the somalis here would give you a warm welcome.
I’m considering Melbourne, Perth and Brisbane due to the Somali community. It’s always good to have your people close by X

Brisbane is nice urban city and lowkey,plus its not too far from the Gold Coast where you can have mini vacays.I know of a couple of somali that left the buuq of Melbourne for the peace of brisabane.Just dont go to Adelaide,all the shops close at 9(even grocery stores) :damn:

USA is too competitive. Canada is a rich and wealthy nation with low population density and plenty of holes you can fill with business ideas
 
:mjlol: im not sure why Somali didnt settle in warm states like Texas and Lousiana..and opted to settle in the coldest areas of Minnesota and Ohio

I was born in Dubai and was raised there..settled in America..i like America
I have no idea sxb Somalis are adventurous walle waa yaab but I think they were welcomed there in higher numbers then elsewhere. How is America after growing up in Dubai? Usually it's the other way around.

I did. Either UK or Australia. The other options are wack x
:dead::deadpeter: Lol geesiyad baa tahay :salute: I'm ashamed that I'm not as loyal to Jarmalka as you are to the UK but contrary to popular sspot belief I genuinely consider moving there in the future in sha Allah.

Totally agree mate, we have it good. I wouldn't mind trying out New Zealand too tbh seems like a more serene and progressive country then ours.
New Zealand is a nice choice walaal seems like quite the idyll, a country where I could accept the remoteness tbh

The USA for the opportunities there.
Yeah a lot of opportunities for the business-minded but a few draw-backs like the health-care system I would miss. But a country of immigrants is what I prefer if I'd continue living in the West

I'd pick Canada. That healthcare system is looking waaay nicer than the shit I have here in the US.
lol that's true :dzmxmmb: are there any other things apart from health-care, tuition for higher education etc. calling you to move north across the border? I'm thinking more in terms of cultural differences or the mindset of the people etc.

Either UK or Australia. I would rather stay in Somalia than live in Minnesota.
looool :damn: la garey if you said move to Somalia but you'd rather stay in 91 Somalia than move to MN? :kanyehmm:
I agree with you on the UK and Australia tho, I don't know why I have a thing for Commonwealth countries, the dominions of the Queen ciyaar ciyaar ma ahan :lawd:
 
People forget the USA is similar to the size of Europe, and you'll find every type of climate, people, and culture there. The US is a nation built by immigrants, unlike Europe.

They don't call it the "American dream" for nothing, people have been emigrating there for a better life since the 1600s

You are welcome to this island anytime sxb. :it0tdo8:

Btw I didn’t choose uk out of loyalty but compared to a lot of other places I’ve been to it’s got that perfect mix of Somali culture and western culture. Australia is the other one I see like that.:manny:

No, its not stop spreading that bullshit.That map is fake Europe is bigger.And you know what happens when too many jump on the live boat.It sinks.
 
I visited Japan, and while the country is great for a holiday, the Japanese are crazy xenophobic towards foreigners. Obviously, you can still settle there, but it takes a lot of work to be able to call it home.
Aren’t they all workaholics?
They even have a word for death from overworking

The US is bigger than the European Union countries land wise.

Europe is bigger than the US if you count the European part of Russia.

the United States is 9,833,000 square kilometers
Europe is 10,180,000 square kilometers

They are similar in terms of size.
