The easiest countries you can move to as an English speaker in the EU are Ireland and Malta. Both have high costs of living, and health and safety practices for labour jobs in Malta are not very high - that said, there are other areas of opportunity. Spain also has work opportunities in English, especially in coastal tourist-reliant areas in hospitality.

The U.K. my Latin husband loves how generally quiet people are in public.

Malta - in general it’s very easy to find a place, but it takes some work to avoid scammy landlord, even high end places are often badly maintained and in poor condition, and it’s quite expensive for what you get (this is obviously in general - I’m sure someone has found an amazing bargain of the best quality place somewhere).
