    What’s your process between selecting a country, all the way through to citizenship?

      It was very different every time:

      1. Polish: just born there, parents did the paperwork
      2. German: fairly complicated, grandpa spent years gettin papers which prove he was in German Wehrmacht durin WWII, we fled to Germany on a one day tourist visa, with those papers they allowed us to stay and with a lengthy process which the parents did we all got the German citicenship because of our ancestors.
      3. Sweden: Very easy, moved there as a EU citicen, lived there for more than 5 years, applied online at the tax agency, waited for 3 years for them to approve it and then they did and send me a letter with the information.
      4. Korea: I don’t have it yet and I don’t know if I will try to get it, but technically the only people who can have the Korean and another citicenship are people who marry a Korean person, which I did, as a first step :D

      But all of it was not planned before, it just so happened in my life.
