Hey guys, I currently am on the verge of finishing my masters in chemistry in Germany. I am originally from India and don’t want to go back. Although Germany is a seemingly great country to live, unfortunately, for me, it never suited me. I have never been so mentally depressed and unmotivated ever in my life (despite previously having a hard life). I think it’s the loneliness and how you’re just never accepted. I cannot think of living here long term. I have nothing against Germany so I would like to not have comments ‘defending’ my stance of living in Germany. I have made up my mind and I just cannot live such a life. I want to ask which country would be great for me. I have a background in chemistry so would be great to have a country that has opportunities for that. That’s the most important. Preferably an English speaking country. Safe for women. Good work life balance. Acceptance of expats(of course I’m not delusional but at least to an extent).
Apply for the Express Entry for Canada. While you wait for your results, see if you can spend time in warmer European countries while you graduate (e.g. Malta) where language will not be an issue and locally seek opportunities to move. This way you have multiple avenues, even if you do not move to Canada. Just have the option for safe bet.
P.S - fellow South Asian woman in Estonia. Planning to move away once I have enough money to make the move.
