    Any independent traders out there want to live abroad with me?

    I too am looking to do the same, although i still cant do it for about a year because of work engagements. Every time i think about it the question always arises: what is internet connectivity like where you want to go to? It seems crucial to find out before. For example, I doubt you will...
