I think you'll like Nomad List then. You can sort by internet speeds, weather, cost of living and more.

    What's so important that they make you fill out form after form.

Not getting kicked out; social security; you being registered; not losing your new job, your driver's license, your insurance, your healthcare. To live anywhere for more a year or so often requires mountains of paperwork.

You mentioned in your post that you want your life to be more exciting. I think that you need more than the desire for excitement to actually live abroad and not regret it, because there are enough bureaucratic roadblocks to curb anyone's enthusiasm. For excitement, go travel more. For a completely different life, go live abroad.
