From what I read on this sub, the focus seems to be in developing countries or Eastern Europe. Just curious as to why US/Canada isn't as popular as DN?

I get that it's more expensive but there are ways around it. I think the beauty and stuff to do in such country tops a lot of places!

Just being curious and would like to know your point of views, not trying to take away anything from other countries :)

No idea how your brain works but yes, to rent a basic studio as a foreigner in LA, you need $2500 minimum, anywhere in SEA or South America, you’re living like a king/queen on that budget - likely a small villa, eating out daily, doing whatever activities you want.

Visas are also more tricky in the US, at least for me as a European.

Not forget the health care system in America that‘s based on scamming the people.
