Its been April since I came back.
I always had a good time there, culture, people, food, nature, short term friends and some dating
Here I have high rent, no long term friends, non existant dating, it makes me always think about booking a ticket back, including all my friends saying they will go
Anyone have a similiar feeling?
$25k is unaffordable? It’s pretty cheap compared to the strict income requirements of many other countries.
Income requirements are just that. You aren’t actually handing over money. But for an elite visa that money is gone. 15 year elite visa is $70k now, and you’ll never see that money again + the benefits are worse than before as an additional fuck you. The 20 year visa basically doesn’t even exist anymore (invite only and $140k lol). Very glad I got my 20 year for $28k (almost same price as a 5 year now) before all this stupid shit happened, but I bet they’ll backpedal on it.
