Germany: Berlin (such as any other capital city full of immigrants) would be a good choice. Germans are not the best in accepting foreigners as equals, but your freedoms will be protected by laws, and there are so many different sorts of people that you won’t look strange, whoever you are
As a Russian: Russia is not open-minded at all, where did you get that idea? Same as in the US, there is a part of population that doesn’t know/understand shit about diversity, human rights, etc, but will be eager to tell you that you are not like them (and also live wrong, dress wrong, etc)
For some reason, learning through music is really hard for me. I have zero issues talking and listening to English speakers for years now, but I still have to actively listen if I want to get 100% of some song.
I’m Russian, I started learning (school doesn’t count) chatting playing pool at Yahoo.games in the beginning of 2000s.
Then I stopped getting translated versions of games (when I got Morrowind, my head literally hurt due to the amount of “foreign” texts I had to read). So, Internet and games taught me in the beginning.
Then, I was asked to translate at business meetings in my (quite small) company, I did some contract translations as well.
Then I got into IT (like 2012 or so), where you use English in many situations. In 2019, I got into an international company, where I spoke English as a main language for three years. Along the way I moved to Denmark, so now, in addition to my kinda broken English, I have a really shitty Danish.

Submarine consists of compartments that you can manage individually, disallow access, etc, while it’s hard to control anything inside the warehouse once the user is there
Great, I believe in humanity again!
Are you serious? Why do you care if he’s rabid if you’ll be dead?
When I was a teenager, I was walking past a bear cub (it was the middle of the city and some asshole took money for pictures with a “trained” bear cub). The cub didn’t like me for some reason I had a textile bag in my hand, with a leather-cover notepad in it, like a knock-off moleskin. The cub slashed the bag and his fangs cut through the bag and half of the notepad like butter. If it was my hip, he’d scratch my bones.
Now there are adult bears…
Ass wriggling on a chair: it is hard for me to keep one position
Pet them? wtf?
Yes, I also imagined naked, crazy person writing this comment, giggling and salivating on the floor
Haven’t been there, but on accounts of some friends, and a YouTuber who travelled across South America back and forth, Colombia and Brazil could be good choices. SA cultures look generally warmer and more social. I don’t know about the details, but maybe there’s someone here who could comment on that (and I’m ok with being completely wrong about everything:) )
