Are there any tropical countries into which a person from Canada could move and find work. Preferably physics related work (or science/technology in general), but not necessarily.

Thanks in advance.

Winter getting to you ? Move here to Vancouver - no work, but you don't have to shovel as much snow!

What about the US? Florida is almost tropical, Arizona is warm but a nicer climate!

Partly winter, partly that I've spent my entire life here, and it would be pretty cool to go live in a different culture for a few years at least. I live in an appartment, so I don't have to shovel snow.

Mostly for the change of culture and scenery, but also for the weather. I'm graduating (bachelors) in a few months, and don't have any job offers around here yet, and I got the (crazy?) idea that it would be fun to move to the tropics for a few years/decades (depending how well I like living there).

Though if you know of any good jobs in Vancouver, let me know, I'd be interested in that too. My major is mathematical physics, I've done some geophys, and some numerical modelling ;)

You could try somewhere like Japan or something. Or Singapore...

Or India. Great food there, too.
