[code-blooded]

Not sure what you mean. Of course I cannot live and pay taxes in every single European country. All I say is based on limited experiences of visiting multiple countries for 1-3 month long stays and then living and paying taxes in Poland.

I meant that with your 1-3 month long stints (working remotely for a foreign company I guess?) you still have just the tourist view of a country, and not the "full package" of living there long term because you never had to deal with long term housing system, the bureaucracy, the education system, the corruption, the healthcare system, the business and tax system, the labor market, the commutes to work and the grind of the locals.

In the end you still just had the tourist experience, enjoying the best parts of life there, while being mostly isolated from the poor stuff the locals have to put up with.
