If I can offer any tip, it would be to find someone you can become a sort of pen pal in an app like Tandem from a different place you’re interested in and then you might automatically get a better perspective of that place.

A lot of people will be happy to tell you about their place, and you’d automatically have lots of people willing to talk to you just from being a native English speaker: as you probably know, there’s an endless list of people out there in the world who know English enough to sort of communicate, but they don’t have much chance to actually talk with a native in a chat where they won’t have to be embarrassed to make a few mistakes.
