9. Not that it's an option for you, but becoming an expat
largely for economic reasons has given me cognitive distance from the mess back home. It has allowed to live a life outside of JUST politics and I am so thankful for that.

I don't know if I will ever go back.

Vote, scream, shouts, and even protest ...

But, what used to be home seems a very bad place indeed from where I am standing.
