People of Reddit who have lived in more than one country long term, which did you prefer and what were the pros and cons of each?

I've in multiple countries and have been back to my home country in probably 6-7 years. I don't know that I will ever come back to my home country as I really don't have any reason to.

Pros: Very different pace of life in some of the countries I've lived in. Much more relaxed and not as aggressive. Plus the pay is good, medical is affordable, and I just like living in different cultures and seeing new things. Also, some of the countries have had public transport/trains which make commuting so much nicer.

Cons: Still have to file yearly taxes in my home country or risk losing my passport. And for other countries, it can be a bit of a nightmare to get setup in their systems like bank accounts, utilities, rental agreements, and the taxes there. Plus learning to unlearn your expectations of things being as you knew them, because in other countries, you can get very frustrated if you keep that mindset.
