Maybe you daydream about leaving.
Maybe you research leaving.
Maybe you are overwhelmed by the thought of leaving, and/or scared you might have to leave.
If things got bad enough to leave, do you have a clear plan on where you would go, how you would get there and what you need to make it all happen?
What are the indicators that it's time to go? These are different for everyone; do you know yours? Have you written them down?
"On Fleeing: a queer person's workbook on how and when to go" is a sharable PDF designed to support people who are stuck in their process of figuring out if it is their time to leave.
Print it (two sided) and bind like a book with a hole punch and yarn (or whatever works for you).
This resource was originally designed for queer neurodivergent folx but anyone can use it. It's not about how to apply for a passport, or the logistics of getting visas. There are other resources for those. We will add some in the area below the workbook.
Download and share "On Fleeing" with those who may benefit.

Working Abroad
Making money is a big factor with living abroad. For people who can work remotely making US money things can be easier, but if you need to work in the country where you are living, you may need special visas to work legally there. Teaching English is one pathway. Getting certified in teaching english can be one path. Here is a link to an online program for getting certified. If money is a barrier, consider applying for a micro grant.
