I guess Ukraine is quite fine, Syria perhaps not. I have always wanted to live in a European country for a while. I have spent a few years in the US and liked it (Not an American). I feel Denmark, Germany or Norway are places I would love to stay and work. That's actually something I would be excited about.

The reporting on the war in Eastern Ukraine is trending down in most of Western media, while the actual war is not. I'd advise against going there without at least doing solid research (the rest of Ukraine is fine).

As for living in other countries, IMO the best thing you can do is - pick a low cost of living country with people and climate that suit you, and work remotely. Even if you start with zero savings, you'll be able to retire in 5-15 years.

No doubt. I am just comparing Syria with Ukraine :)
