Absolute nonsense this list, unbelievable. 
Berlin must be within top ranks, Zurich (at least 24th in this list) too.
Berlin and f.e. Tel Aviv not even listed, while there is every possible american shithole mentioned. No Tokyo, no Seoul either. As if asians can't be hipsters :
:
I wanna visit Copenhagen soon, everyone who has been there loved it.

...what kind of festivals have you been? Thought you listen to hip hop, right? So we must have missed each other

I flew out to Lisbon May 1. Nice commie holiday at that.
And I’ll have to visit the Azores again soon, but I’m not living with those hillbillies just yet.
Spoken like Rommel.
Sweet, that’s cool to hear, mang.
It’s also a Aristotelean way, with Cartesian reductionism, to look at things when you think about it.
And palmetto bugs and lovebug swarms in May and people who spend their child’s tuition on getting them a three-wheeled ATV... the whole state is a giant museum to anthropological mutation.

Waterboarding, day and night. Then they put you in some makeshift camp in France and set your things on fire. The true Europee-on welcome experience. :heart2:
True story though... I do get in administrative lines from hell with a lot of North Africans, South Asians, etc. So I do share a lot of the same filthy immo lines and bureaucracy as a privileged white expat.
Like everything in Portugal seems to be based on a video bingo system. It's some arcane process whereby people wait in concrete slab basements like some kind of awaiting-death purgatory for foreigners while TV video screens pop up combinations of letters and numbers like a video bingo game. You get a scrap of paper with your bingo numbers on them. Sometimes multiple numbers, depending on what you need to do. And then you find out after 2 hours you were in the wrong line and then someone bothers to tell you the one you should have been in. Or someone tells you to come back tomorrow because you didn't have this form filled out or that you don't speak enough Portuguese. Or you miss that a brand new corner of the window started flashing separate numbers and you missed your number being called there.
It's kind of a major contrast from, say, the German system: where everything is modeled with rules and routes for how everything works. In the German model, if you're not an exception case, everything flows right as planned. But if you are the exception, the system has no way of knowing what to do with you.
In the Portuguese system, all the rules are Byzantine and contradictory... like you cannot apply for B until you have A first, but you can't get A until you have B. But because everything is a hack, you get the right people involved and they find a way to subvert the system and get things to work eventually.

Here's how screwed up things are. I'm in the country technically on a 90-day Schengen tourist visa. But that's almost expired. So soon I am kind of here illegally. However, when I entered the country I got an appointment scheduled with the immigration service to get a "family reunion" visa, since my wife has dual US + Portuguese citizenship. But because the system is so backlogged, my appointment isn't until December. So my legal evidence of being able to stay and work in the country is a sheet of paper from the immigration office confirming my appointment. That's it. Because they know the system is so backlogged, they know they cannot set appointments within 90 days, and so I get to stay because they acknowledge the system is so constipated.
I can apply for EU citizenship too, which I had been planning, but there's a more detailed language requirement (which I am working on) and I didn't want that process to f-up my visa process here.
But yeah, after a couple of years here I am thinking I can decide to head back to the States or stick here or do it part-time or whatever. Given this messed up world, it pays to have options. So many people here in Portugal are economic and political refugees from the mess in Brazil, for example.
Can I feel yours?
