U.S. Resident Openly Discusses Infinite Motivations Driving His Decision to Emigrate Overseas
Adam, known online as 'trvlking', has gone viral for a video expressing his reasons for leaving the US and not wanting to return. In the video, Adam shares his observations about several issues with the US, including unwalkable cities, terrible public transport, and a general sense that people outside the US enjoy their lives more.
After spending over a year living abroad, Adam has noticed that many other countries offer a better quality of life. He criticizes American cities for being poorly designed for pedestrians, making daily life less convenient, and points out the inadequacy of public transit systems compared to other countries.
Adam also feels that the US is structured primarily to extract money from its residents rather than to serve their well-being, describing it as an ultra-capitalist society. He observes that people outside the US appear to enjoy their lives more, emphasizing a quality of life issue.
Adam's decision was not based on hatred for the US but rather a curiosity about different ways of living. After experiencing societies that feel built for the people, he began to see the US as a place designed mainly to take your money, which reinforces his preference for living abroad.
The video has sparked intense debate online, with some users agreeing with Adam's assessment that people outside America enjoy life more. Others argue that it's easy to live abroad when earning an American salary, while some believe America is too work-driven and has a culture focused on productivity.
A user from Oklahoma suggests that America can offer a lifestyle of no work and just hanging out, while a user from South Carolina contends that those wanting a chill life can find it in America. However, a fourth user disagrees with Adam's statement, suggesting that America can offer different lifestyles depending on one's preferences.
Adam has also expressed concern about what he perceives as a decline or “crumbling” of America, urging others to diversify their lives internationally through remote income, second residencies, new passports, and international banking to prepare for an uncertain future.
