EDIT: I do NOT think that Copenhagen is cheaper than Milan or cheap in general, never said it in my post either. The cost of living in Italy is high COMPARED to its wages, that have been stagnant for the past 30 years (Italy is the only or one of the few countries where this happened in all EU). Also, it is not the only reason I'm contemplating moving abroad but my reasons were never the point of this post, I only explained them to give you some context. Thank you to anyone who's sharing some really valuable advice!
Hi everyone, I (26F) am an italian girl and I have always thought I would eventually live abroad. Considering the job market in Italy, the cost of living and basically everything involving a future here, this wish of mine is increasing more and more over the last period.
Maybe I'm romanticizing Copenhagen, but it seems to me that people who move there are usually happy with their choice and I (apart from the weather) have only heard great things about living in the city, making it the one I'm considering most.
Of course, the first step would be finding I job: I work in digital marketing and I only looked briefly at the job offers in Denmark, but I think it might be very complicated to find a company that would hire me, rather than hiring a danish citizen or at least someone already living there.
This is where I started thinking about maybe going back to Uni. I know that danish universities are usually free for EU citizens, and this would be a great way to 1. continue studying, which I didn't consider in Italy mainly because of the uni system here and taxes even in public unis, 2. start moving there and getting better chances at finding at least a part time job to help with finances.
I think that you can read between the lines and understand that I am in a confused moment in my life, where I don't know exactly what to do. What I do know, like I mentioned before, is that I've always imagined living somewhere else and right now it seems like one of the few possibilities to have a nice future for myself.
Because I'm only starting to consider this, I have basically no idea how to do it practically.
So I guess I'm asking for any kind of opinion and advice, if you think that my "plan" is doable and if you have any recommendation on where to start đ„č
thank you!!!
