 I've moved to Byron Bay. Took a few years, but we wanted to try something different

I was at a protest with my wife & daughter when the police started firing those bullets

Absolute madness

 I also live in Australia but am leaving for El Salvador as unforgivable what they did here and exposed who they really are
I am all in Bitcoin including Super 
Hope you can join me and exit FIAT 
Bitcoin is hope!!!

 If I was more mobile, ie didn’t have a young family, then for sure I’d be looking at a similar move

But for now decided to make the best of the situation on the ground here 

Plus sceptical of “out of the pan into the flame” type vibes ie make a big move to the wrong place 

Time will tell if just procrastination… don’t own any physical real estate any longer in favour of btc 

So in theory we can go whenever! Got to get baby 3 born first, due in 2 weeks, then update the plan

 This seems to be a common answer for those with families which is understandable 

I want to help Bitcoiners with this dilemma 
Am curious if you would move if there was free accommodation for six months ?

There are a lot of families from Australia and Canada in El Salvador also

 It’s not a cost thing per say, but more of a family ties thing 

Tbh there is so much that goes into this type of decision!

 Thats a long journey from Aus! Good thing is you can spend with lighning there. Crypto to Fiat becoming extremely difficult with all the KYC and AML.
