    Does this question even make sense in EU? I just walk across the border as usual and get an apartment there.

      If someone says “the country” on a global forum, you kinda know which country they’re from

          As a Canadian there were many time in the past I thought of taking the ultimate escape from my student loans.

          I don’t think that’s entirely correct. For example, there are a “good” amount of people in Germany too that are privatinsolvent.

          I like it where I live too, even though obviously not everything is perfect. But if you had a crippling debt that you could never pay off, then moving to another country to lose that debt is appealing.

            people in Germany too that are privatinsolvent.

            That is somehow the opposite. They get a chance to nullify their debts without the need to flee.
