I’m completely and utterly burnt out of education, and queer anyway. I live in shithole, US and am desperate to move.

I am very good at math and science, and explaining how to do math to people. I have fairly severe ASD adjacent symptoms at the moment, eye contact is difficult and off putting tics or body posture are just not something I can’t avoid atm. This is a burnout phase, which I experience cyclically and is also related to periods of high stress.

I want a 9-5 with health insurance. I am hopelessly in forever debt, but live poor as shit anyway. I would like to move out of my shithole before they put on “f” on my drivers license. I have a decent size library that I want to transport to wherever I move.

I’ve had severe executive function breakdown related to actual physical torture and other things. What I am looking for is a path to owning a small home in a place that is welcoming to trans people and a job that requires less planning and more in the moment tasks. I have no desire to be wealthy, but I want a house with my name on it that no one can ever kick me out of.

I can program, I can read fast, I can pick up a lot of skills very quickly. I have a BA, BS, and most of an MS. I just can’t organize. I can’t plan out my to-do lists. I need something very difficult and interesting for someone to point me at.

    hi, I’ve been living abroad for 15 years or so.

    if you want to move, you should move.

    most countries have a very low cost of living compared to the US, so you can teach math or English abroad(what I usually recommend for first time travelers who want money) and easily save 1-2 thousand a month in a country like Thailand, which is very welcoming to trans people and has great, affordable medical care.

    if you can get any remote programming job that pays more than $500 US a month, you can live abroad and immediately start saving any income over that 500, which covers your own apartment and food for the month.

    and it is awesome out here in the world, btw.

    you can live and save abroad for a couple years and if for whatever reason you want to go back to the US and buy a house, you’ll have the money to do that.

    I’ve helped other people move and would be happy to go into any details you’re curious about.
