A different life... a rewarding one with purpose?
We are both sick of the society we are living in full of pretentious people, materialistic status and expectations to fit in to the standards. We want an eye opening, life changing 'sea change' so called, I am a registered nurse and my partner is a builder/ carpenter fully qualified and experienced. Most of my nursing experience has been with children. We were thinking somewhere like a village in Papua New Guinea, indonesia, nepal, japan... anywhere! Somewhere our skills would be much more needed and rewarding then they are here.

I admire you. Our system is terrible broken. It does not work. Nor do the people in it.

I say go for it. The society we live in is way to materialistic and I think Papua New Guinea sounds like the best place. Also here is a good website for what you are looking for: http://www.expatify.com/advice/10-best-places-to-live-for-escaping-world-conflict.html Hope I helped

Where do you live at the moment? Most developed countries have organisations that can help you move to a remote location and potentially even give some financial support for the move. In Australia it's Australian Volunteers International. As a nurse and a builder you could definitely help improve the lives in many developing countries. You also have to consider though that many indigenous people are not open to 'charity' as such, I personally know this from Papua New Guinea for example. To set up a small business that allows people to trade with you instead of accepting your charity, allows them to keep their dignity and allows you to contribute to their lives.
