Yes pure Pipe dreams....I go to Andorra every year for 2 weeks to
Ski....this year I decided that I would love to live there......

I stuck a message on this board and a guy called Steve Michaelis, or
something similar, got back to me.....he his retiring to Andorra, he
currently works for JVC in the UK...he gave me the address of a site within
the Andorran region which tells about staying there and from all accounts it
seems nigh impossible...you can't work for more than 3 months and you need
to have lots of money to give the government as a bond type idea which you
get back if you leave I think....

Perhaps this will suit you if you are the millionaire type, if so you've got
my Email address, joking aside though I suppose it depends what you do for a
living, all i know is that my job in Andorra is not vital and they can get
staff within the country so no luck to me......you might be different
though?

I've also looked at Canada this year and this seems to take about a year
nearly 3 in some cases...

I can't see why you want to leave the US of A though, I guess the grass is
always greener....hence me trying to move to Dublin.........I really just
want another job though and Dublin seems to have the people and companies
most interested in what I do....time will tell though...


Hope this helps slightly...

Take Care....


John
