I don't get the point of people suggesting other countries without leaving a possible route to immigrating there. It's not like one could hop on a plane to the USA and then decide to live there without a visa/greencard/citizenship, much less work there (many visas aren't 'working visas'). As I understand it Potjeh is choosing Sweden because as a Croatian citizen he is allowed to legally stay here, since Croatia entered into the EU, and other EU countries have some form of 5 year moratorium.

Well, it might be wise to have an employer before you travel. Going willy nilly might cost more than it tastes.

As I plainly stated Post 9/11 I worked with several Bosnian women and they told me how Bosnians were being allowed to resettle here. Although that may have changed since then I wouldn't forsee him having many problems getting a green card "at least".

That's pretty crazy Potjeh, you're going to have to adopt a 'go get it' attitude for a while if you want things done. You're probably aware, but there will be a fine line you are treading between success and falling into a pit you have a very hard time getting out of, but your situation must be pretty desperate in Bosnia for you to take this decision. I remember on a trip across former yugoslavia, we expressely did not go to Bosnia because people (from other yugo-countries) said it was still pretty messed up.

I advise you to get your transition to swedish nationality cleared up as fast as possible and start looking for a job at a job-finding bureau. We have these in Belgium and they always constantly have vacancies for jobs Belgians don't want anymore. It'll be pretty tough but you will work your way out of it H&H style I am sure.

Do not lose any identification cards and stuff! You have rights and some bad people might try to abuse yours.

Sorry, but you're a fucking idiot painhertzbby and you know nothing about international matters. :D
Bosnians were probably allowed to move to many countries during the war in the balkans, seeing as they were fleeing and hence getting refugee status. I don't think Potjeh would be considered a refugee.

Bosnians had (have?) a refugee status from the war that made it easier to get a green card. If I understand correctly, it's one of those things Congress does to help alleviate burdens in foreign countries during war times and rebuilding.

Downside to coming to the US is the cost of a flight over. Even a cheap ticket on a freighter can be expensive, and what's left won't get you very far.

The only reason he's moving to sweden is so he can get jorbs autograph, we are on to you.
Early world exploit: Put your hearthfire inside a cave, then hold shift to position a claim right in front of a cave. After 8 hours the claim will be unbreakable. Since your hearthfire is inside the cave, you can still get back inside, and leave, but nobody will be able to enter, effectively making you unraidable for the first 3-7 days. Enjoy
