Just posing this question implies a loooooot of prejudice.

Back to topic, I wouldn't move too a Muslim country because all of them feel like alien cultures to me, beyond the predominant religion. I would not move to SE Asia, either, for the same reason. As I said before, I want to live in a place where I feel integrated and belonging. I could live in many places in the Americas and Europe, and few places in the rest of the world. Now, if you are looking for moving to be isolated from the rest of the hosting culture, interacting only with other expatriates, I am unsure whether or not living in a Muslim country should be out of consideration if you are wealthy.

Life quality is one of the highest in South America, and even living in Montevideo feels like being in an inside country small town. However, It is not low for the locals, the system would not work without the local strong welfare network. Currently. Beyond cost of living for the locals, Montevideo is currently the most expensive city in South America. Not only rich Brazilians, but also Argentines and any rich foreigner in general visiting the country. Punta del Este used to be exclusive, but with time has become the destination for the tacky rich and the upper middle class people who like to pretend tp be rich. There are other smaller and less known beaches that are much more exclusive that Punta del Este. Check José Ignacio. If you are running from shopping centers and high end spas and hotels, check Cabo Polonio. Not a beach, but I love spending quiet weekends in Colonia del Sacramento. By the way, Uruguayan parrilas are just as good as their Argentine and Brazilian competition. Beyond the local attractions, as I mentioned before, Uruguay closeness to Buenos Aires and Rio de Janeiro is also a great plus that remediates potential boredom.

Yes, but if you are a savvy client you can easily avoid the scams. I met a few amazing guys in the website. You will find there the providers who have the lowest prices and who are not clock watchers, the closest business model to Brazilian GPs'. In my experience, there is a single and very simple trick to avoid scams anywhere in the globe: ask for a teleconference to verify face picture and close the deal. The Argentine forum (Foro Pirata) has the website banned in the public forums, we can only discuss it within the private club. If your language skills do not support you to research a candidate with local support, perhaps you should avoid Skokka.

Understood. Well, depending on how important living abroad is for you, perhaps you can explore the job market for an option that allows you more international traveling.

It can be very uncomfortable. -

Of course, you should do whatever fits you. However, when people make these plans I cannot help but think that they should stay at their original home if they do not want to learn the language and get integrated with their new home.

Thanks to teleworking you do not need to wait to retire for that. I am working with my employer on a plan for my next few years (in October I could go on early retirement and they do not want to lose me) where I will be working from abroad for increasing periods. This year, besides short trips, I will be in South American from mid nov to mid jan. My next contact would increase those 2 months to 4, and so on. I am excited.

A couple of months? I would advise more time exploring and getting acquainted with potencial destinations. Moving to a place you have only researched on line or visited a few times is not a good idea.

You may also want to check Chile. Chile and Uruguay are quite stable political and economic systems. I find both countries less fun and less diverse than Argentina and Brazil. But they are all very close and it would be easy to live and have your money safe in Chile or Uruguay while you travel for fun to their neighbor nations.

And by the way, THERE IS NOTHING WRONG ABOUT BUMPS. I think the friend @Monarchy79 did not have breakfast that morning. -

@azdr0710 is joking, but it is funny because his joke has a lot of truth. Be patient, and you will establish yourself with your consistency (or lack of). Besides, if you have been paying attention you may have already noticed, sometimes being ignored is a blessing. -

I've evolved from very detailed reports to more general assessments as you suggest. Several times I had to edit or delete my reports by the provider's request. My reports were very positive but, they explained to me, they were willing to do with me stuff they would not regularly do, and they did not want to create false expectations. -

Not at all. Just get in my shoes as a reader. This is what you wrote: You did not write "because I felt unsafe". You seemed to be referring to some objective danger.

Yes, there are saunas. There are no saunas with prostitution, but there are several bathhouses for hooking up.

That is exactly why his comments confused me. Cuba is probably the safest country in Latam, if you are a tourist.
-
What do you mean by the level risk is high? I know a lot of people who hired and hooked up with no issues.
-
Did you not hire any locals? Did you hook up for free with any locals?

The escorts in Buenos Aires are quoting 30 bucks and above to local clients. The prices my contacts are passing me are higher than in Rio, and the service quality is consistently lower.

I love the app. I have been using for about 3 years now, and it helped me to be a safer driver and have less infractions tickets to pay.
