I had the most fun speaking with Jaco van der Merwe. I wished I could meet him in person and share a bottle of wine with him and his husband. Both from South Africa, they decided a few years ago they wanted to move countries for a better life and more opportunities. But to where?

From that point they worked up the criteria, set up a spreadsheet and got to reviewing countries for their next home. An important consideration was a place that is safe for LGBTIQ+ people and a place where they could have a family.  I loved learning about their decision process, but also how they met each other and got married, how they have worked together, and how they set goals each year for their life together. So where did they end up moving to? Dive in and listen.
