After the Brexit vote came in I moved away to a lefty part Europe as fast as I could, because I’m a queer woman and I’ve read the history books.
Every time I’ve returned to visit my parents the place has seemed to be more shitty … last year I came away feeling down just from the vibes.
I’m so sorry for the beautiful Trans people of the UK, you deserve better, you deserve to be safe. If you can, get the fuck out of that country - where I am now Greggs would be considered a hate crime, never mind this bullshit.
Spain, specifically Catalonia. We live in a little village in the mountains, our house cost about what a down payment on a flat would have in the UK … and people really really don’t give a shit that we’re both butch as all get out.
Since Brexit moving here is much more difficult though, I think you’d need to have an offer of work or a pension that’s enough to live off (companies are legally required to try to hire from inside the EU where possible). Also, learning the language is very important, since there’s not much tolerance for “ex-pats” with a superiority complex.

Where did you go if you feel safe sharing? I’m looking for a queer safe space to spend the last years of my life
