I know building in public has its pros but the next time I tweet will be when I’m at $5K MRR - even if it takes me 2 years
adios everyone 👋 time to lock in
Day 4 of using iPhone Duo and the novelty has run out, I miss my regular iPhone, I barely use the phone opened up, there might be a use case but I’m not finding it useful enough
The only 22 countries in the world🌍 worth moving to (as an entrepreneur).
I'm German-Polish & I've lived in Asia, Switzerland, UAE & Cyprus.
I visited every worthy place & this is what I’d choose for 2027.
> The UAE 🇦🇪 is amazing for networking, getting inspired & seeing what's possible. But after a while, everyone needs a break from the hustle (& heat).
> Malta 🇲🇹 is a great alternative in the EU. I had a few nice trips there, but it's quite small & I don't like their tax refund system.
> Bali 🇮🇩, Thailand 🇹🇭 & co. are nice for 1-2 months, but every time I get food poisoned I just want to leave.
Don't get me wrong. They are still great options, just not for me.
And to be fair, any of them beats staying at home & paying 50% in tax.
But now it’s getting interesting.
Low taxes alone isn't the goal either.
It's so much more when choosing a country to live, build a business & raise a family in.
I'm actually fine with paying a fair amount of taxes. I don’t need a tax haven.
I need a place where I see that taxes get reinvested into infrastructure & society.
Add safety, peace, nature, low bureaucracy, a great climate & we’ve got the closest thing to a perfect country.
For me, that's Cyprus 🇨🇾.
I've been living here for almost 8 years now & it offers all that.
In addition, Cyprus has a special 60 days tax residency which allows me to travel a big part of the year.
This means I have my permanent base in Cyprus. A routine, friends, my house & an office here.
But whenever I want to break my routine with traveling, I can do so.
I visit Dubai, Warsaw, Cape Town and South East Asia regularly & I love it.
However, after a few weeks I'm always excited to come back home.
And since Cyprus has a great geo-location, traveling is super efficient.
I could literally live anywhere in the world, but I keep choosing Cyprus:
> Total tax rate sits at 0-17.65%
> Amazing island lifestyle
> Sun all year round
> Low cost of living
Does this mean you have to pick Cyprus too? No.
Pick the place that fits your life, your business & your family.
But keep in mind: You have only 79 days left to relocate before the 2027 tax calendar starts.
So if this post motivated just one person to pack their suitcases, it was worth writing.
