 Have you actually emigrated to the USA? Why didn't you become a perpetual traveler? Family? 
 Yes I did almost 9 years ago. I was young and had no friends who lived here who could advice. Becoming traveler wasnt possible because I had student visa that expired but I kept my legal status. So, if I left USA I could not re enter anymore. But I am preparing to leave this country very soon. It's done  
 I wish you all the best with your plans. Since becoming a perpetual traveller, I feel much better too. No more taxes and you can see everything from a distance. But everyone has to prepare and manage this individually. But it is definitely possible. Very bad for people from the USA, of course, because they are taxed via their passport. I can only say how lucky I am that taxation in most EU countries is based on residence. 
 Thanks. The reason why I stopped chasing to get American green card or passport. Pointless
