You may check out Ireland. Google are in Dublin and a lot of
other IT companies come to Ireland too. Or you set up your own
company and program in D. Game development is big in Dublin,
I've heard.
AFAIK companies are often registered in Ireland because of some
nice tax hack possible there, not much actual development goes
there.
I know people who work in IT companies or have set up their own
companies in Dublin. AFIK the general climate for this kinda
stuff is good. I know a German guy who was headhunted by a
company in the US while working in Dublin. The good thing about
Ireland is that the connections are there and there is no
language barrier.
Also Google nowadays is one of those companies where people
actually bother about a degree - not my type for sure ;)
Yeah, that's a bit weird, especially now that so many people go
into programming for various reasons (e.g. app development).
I hope to eventually get remote contract and move to Iceland at
some distant point of my life :) This country has done a lot of
stuff right.

They have, by dad, they have. You could stop over in Ireland and
if it's too hot for you here, move up north to Iceland. The same
only less sun and more rain :D
