For those of you who moved from one city (or one country) to another, how did you decide to make the move? I have been thinking about where to move to for a couple of years now. I would love to live in Toronto, Edinburgh, Manchester, Sunderland (England), etc. but I am not eligible for a work visa b/c I haven't made enough money (for a U.K. visa) nor have I worked full time for an entire year (for a Canadian one). Otherwise, I would qualify. I have visited (multiple times) or lived in many of these places and I have friends in or near many of these cities.
I've been trying to figure out where to live in the U.S. I've traveled to many cities in the U.S., but nothing seems to fit yet. I really have to move in a couple of months since I have to start paying back graduate loans in about 5 months. I would especially like to live somewhere with great public transport/good walking areas, a stronger media/marketing city, people who are relatively open, etc. Warmer would be great, but I would rather live in a colder climate with friendly people than a warmer climate with people who are cold to socializing. I know it's not as simple as what I described though, so how did you choose where to live?
