There are lots of reasons you should consider living abroad.
But one of the reasons most people don’t mention is that living abroad, dating abroad, and international marriage all go hand-in-hand.
And living abroad is a trend that has been growing in popularity, which makes it a realistic option for many men.
So here are the top 5 reasons you should consider living abroad:
1. Cheaper Cost of Living
Many of the best countries for dating abroad also have cheaper cost of living. This is especially true compared to living in a Western country.
The food is almost always cheaper, tastier, and healthier. (This is because many countries have not allowed their food supplies to become corrupted with additives and preservatives.)
And you will probably be able to eat out as often as you like, especially if you have an online business.
But the savings don’t stop there. Rent (or even purchasing a home) in a desirable location is much more affordable in many of the countries we focus on. And utility prices will seem ridiculously low compared to what you have become accustomed to.
Another important thing that costs less is all of the fun things you’ll want to do. Boat rides, day trips, SCUBA diving…almost any activity that costs money will cost less when enjoying it abroad.
2. Higher Quality of Life
At first, the higher quality of life that comes with living abroad might seem similar to the cheaper cost of living that we just discussed.
But quality of life is more than just the things you spend money on. It includes the intangible things that make life more enjoyable.
For example, the simple act of living in a beautiful place or near the ocean can have a huge impact on your happiness.
And the ability to outsource many less desirable tasks like cooking, cleaning, and doing your laundry all add up to more time you can spend doing the things you enjoy.
Is this possible everywhere? No. But in Thailand, The Philippines, Mexico, much of South America, and Central or Eastern Europe it is. In fact, having a maid or private chef is possible for many of the men reading this article.
So it makes sense the benefits of geographic arbitrage and living a higher-quality of life are appealing to many men.
3. Foreign Women = Better Dating Options
Surprising absolutely no one who is an iBrides reader: dating foreign women abroad is exponentially more enjoyable than dating most Western women.
Lots of guys have become so accustomed to the entitlement displayed by many Western women that they are literally in shock at how much better dating abroad is. All you have to do is hop on a plane and change dating markets.
But taking a short vacation overseas to “give foreign dating a try” is significantly different than moving abroad.
Fact: you will have an exponentially higher number of dating options if you move abroad.
This is true even if your move is only temporary.
Why? Because you will have enough time to allow the dating cycle to progress naturally instead of trying to rush it to fit your timeline. And you will also have more time to meet foreign women as you both go about your daily lives.
It would have been easy to cover this item first. But since you’re reading this article, you already know that dating foreign women is better than dating in the West for most men.
4. Healthier Lifestyle
We touched on this in the first item when discussing food, but now it’s time to go deeper.
Almost everyone is more active when they travel. The main exception being the people who just want to lay on a beach all day.
But why are people more active? For starters, many of the cities that are best for dating are also great for walking.
For example, if you’re dating Slavic girls in Europe, you’re probably doing so in a city that has lots of parks and sidewalks. So if the weather is nice, you’re more likely to walk instead of taking an Uber. The same is true of many of the best cities for dating in Asia and South America. They are perfect for walking and there are interesting things to see.
So you will spend more time being active, burn more calories, and eat healthier food by moving abroad.
And when you find yourself in a good healthy relationship, you should be getting your heart rate up and burning more calories in the bedroom too.
5. Life is an Adventure…If You LIVE It
How many people do you know who have never traveled internationally? And how many people do you know who have only lived in their home country…or never outside of their home town? I probably just described most of the people you know.
But how does that compare to the life you desire to live?
The number of good, healthy years all of us have is less than we would like to admit. And they go by fast.
So how are you going to spend yours? Are you going to live life as if you are the main character in YOUR movie? On a quest for adventure while dating the most beautiful (and pleasant) women in the world…
Or are you going to die like most people who have massive regrets and wish they’d done the things they were too scared to do at the time?
The choice is yours. But this is one of the most important reasons you should consider living abroad if you desire to do so.
Next Steps
For many men, living abroad to date foreign women or start their new family is very appealing.
And it’s not uncommon to find that many foreign women would prefer to live in their home country. Even if they meet a Western man.
