I'm trying to make a move myself and am curious what worked and how well it turned out.

I think the number one thing that made it possible was the willingness to try. Covid hit; very early in the cruise ships are staying out of port phase… my family decided it was time. We’ve always been rambling. But I was already ready to leave my job at the time.

Having sufficient education and experience helps to get a skilled work visa, but so does willingness to try and to take, in my case, a 50% pay cut.

It has been a great 5 years, and I wouldn’t trade it for the world.
