Where do you live? I used to think California was so cheap when I moved here, but last time I went home to London it seemed so cheap in comparison (not talking housing just everything else)

Everything is gonna feel expensive to Americans traveling abroad right now. Dollar value has fallen by 10% in last 6 months. 😬

Yep, I keep tabs on French and Danish homes for sale. It's noticeable now.

Are travelling Americans worried about being let back in?

I doubt it. Not yet. The first worries will be when the courts start testing the viability of Trump pulling birthright citizenship from American citizens. Then a whole new chaos rears its head.

I noticed that just yesterday on dual-priced clothes tickets yesterday. An item which was say £29.99 was $59.99.

Worth it to be in countries that aren't fascist yet.

Apparently there is a house price spike as many Americans are purchasing homes abroad.

Although I greatly enjoyed living in Europe (and would again) I'd rather die destroying fascism here than flee and leave others to suffer a fate I escaped. That said I can't blame those who do choose to leave.

I’m Canadian and I always look at it the other way around. $1 CAD is currently $0.72 USD, and it’s been around there with the occasional small jump for a very long time.
