As a Canadian citizen who acquired an Irish passport through my grandparents. I’d suggest starting with figuring out what countries your education qualifies, then apply to jobs while living in Canada to cities you enjoy. Get a job while still abroad.
I work in software. Applied to jobs in Berlin, Barcelona, Lisbon, Amsterdam, Dublin, and London. Ended up getting a job I liked in Amsterdam. Been here for nearly 4 years. Definitely worth it.
A word of caution. ⚠️ A friend’s older brother got an EU passport, then made some grand leap and moved to Amsterdam without a plan. Had no education and worked factory jobs. Ended up hating it. He asked me how to get money from the government. Said he was going to be homeless… with less than a year working here. I told him to go back to Canada. Don’t do that. These EU counties aren’t going to take care of you if you fail.
