💯 agree. Just to add:

- Prepare your documents in advance and get them apostilled. They are often only valid for 6 months.

- Have somewhere in mind, that you know you could settle. Ideally visit first.

- Ask yourself what would need to happen to pack-up and go. Write it down somewhere visible.

Options are available until they are not. You have a backup of your data, you should also have a backup for your life 🏠
