Hi, I’m looking for a country whose people or government mainly support my values. I’m looking for a country that:

  • supports wildlife protection

  • supports eco-friendly things and solar/wind energy

  • supports freedom of expression and does NOT criminalize queer people, be it trans, gay, bi, pan, intersex, asexual, etc.

  • peaceful, low crime

  • community-oriented

  • equal and just

  • very friendly towards animals, filled with animal sanctuaries and no-kill shelters

  • free education and/or healthcare (preferably education and healthcare are free/government-funded)

  • high taxes are therefore fine to me

  • compassion-oriented

  • affordable food with low unhoused rates and high employment rates

    costa rica legalized same-sex marriage in 2020, have free public education, a medicare-style public health, is full of wildlife protection, has freedom of expression and no military, and is relatively peaceful (more peaceful than most latin american countries, for sure). don’t know about employment and cost of living, though.

    another option is uruguay which benefits from most of these characteristics. wildlife is not lush though, as most of the country is empty, flat steppes mostly used for grazing cattle and sheep.
