Hmm, I do remember you mentioning that you were living in Manila on your hard-earned savings, but never mind. If you could work from home for a salary not so distant from what you are earning now in Cologne, then I guess I'll have to scratch my head thinking of how you could be so naive to think that you could go from a third world paradise to a first world paradise on a single jump...

I'm not here to ride on a four stroke engine on an auto bahn or make "MONEY" ...I'm not here for the only thing Europe can offer...Good Life and Money..GET IT? ....I'm not here for that....

Many Europeans who have a soul have figured it out though and moved to places where they sync...some are still stuck on money and can't seem to see things that are so obvious...
Don't you see you are the one who has been fooling himself all along with his new age bullcrap? Of all the solid & legit reasons to move to a place like Germany, you say you chose the idea of finding like-minded new age soldiers for your unlikely spiritual battles... LOL, really? Are you trying to fool someone else than yourself?
You tried the sun, the condo and the girls of Makati and didn't like 'em. You are trying the pragmatic and sobering life of post-industrial Germany, and not liking it either. For somebody who purports himself to be so spiritually developed and well versed on how the world and society function, you are not showing much tolerance and spirit of adaptation.
Just pull your act together, I would suggest ya.
I just wanted to visit Europe and due to being from India, its really tough to get visa, if you play by the rules. Plus i have only freelance work credentials, so they don't kinda trust me.
I have since then read many articles and many people confirmed the same opinion on Germany. Here an American

I was living in Germany and it sucked so bad. Life was so restrictive. No Jet ski's, no snowmobiles, no ski boat, no hot tub, no outdoor swimming pool.
And I don't come from a rich family just middle class. The middle class in Europe basically just slave away just to pay the bills with barely any luxuries.
Don't get me started on Air conditioning , I had to sweat my balls off in the summer time because for some unknown reason hey haven't heard of air conditioning in most parts of Europe.
What I'm trying to say is why do some of these people think life is better on there side of the planet when clearly it sucks balls or maybe people in North America are just spoiled.
Update : Yea right, I mean your own hot tub and swimming pool, Europe has no nature every last square inch has been pissed or craped in. I'd say a good 70% of Europe is a ******* 3rd world shithole.
Update 2: I know that how we do things is worse for the environment. But I would rather live my life like this because it's much more enjoyable. Your point is like saying accept $1000 instead of $2000 if someone is giving it out for free.
