Thanks for the suggestion, but the US is not really an option, social- and economic security wise and also the distance back to the Netherlands. I'd like to be able to afford a flight back to friends and family more then once or twice a year :) Pretty much the same goes for Chile or Argentina.

You got your reasons. That's alright. Have you looked into Greenland? How about doing a self-employed gig where you do coding for other based on contracts and orders? On Fri, Sep 30, 2011 at 9:27 AM, Kevin Renskers wrote: > I don't think many people will ever understand why I'd want to move t

Ok, this is of-topic, but why immigrate from The Netherlands and why for the Love of All that's Holy would you move to the coldest place on earth? I live in Norway and just don't understand this. And sorry, I am aware this is not django related. Thomas On Fri, Sep 30, 2011 at 2:55 PM, Kevin Rensk

Hmm - CCP would have been a very good company to get in with :/ I'm surprised you have not found any other decent positions in Nederland tbh. BoxedIce (owners of ServerDensity) are always on the look out for new developers, they offer remote working, and they already have staff in Nederland. Hop
