Wasn’t there just a coup attempt the local government blamed the west for? If so they may not be willing to let you in Did you look at south/Central America, I know some people who went there as expats.
I know about the coup attempt.
But I will be going as a political refugee, of all things.
Never thought I'd have to start planning to flee Canada in political exile.
If you told me 5 years ago that this would be happening, I would have told you to take 2 aspirin and get your head checked.
Too many disease south of the equator. I don't want to drop dead of yellow fever or whatnot.
They had a pretty serious coup attempt lately that the Russian army had to go fix. It is a decent enough place but it doesn't sound stable at the moment.
Serbia is nice. Very pretty countryside and some excellent small towns. That whole Aegean is genuinely very nice scenery especially the coast.
Serbia is right on the refugee route. Not a good idea.
By the point I'm forced to flee, things will have cleared up in Kazakhstan.
Also if you are Canadian currently can you open a bank account in a foreign jurisdiction like say Singapore, or any foreign jurisdiction with a stable economy, that might be helpful to your goal, since you aren’t American you might have more luck there unlike most of us
Kazakhstan's mostly cash based.
Which is nice, because at least they can't just freeze every dollar you have.
