I’m interested in experiencing what its like to live abroad. But you can’t always find job opportunities from the home country. I was wondering, how difficult is a “shotgun move”?

Bought a one way ticket and moved countries with only a few hundred euros saved up. I was 22, broke, uni dropout. I had free accommodation for 1 month (hostel volunteering), during which I only ate bread and cheese, but I got a job, found a room, and then built a life.
7 years later i have multiple uni degrees, a great job, and a fridge full of healthy foods :)
We had the exact same experience when it comes to the food, also i had to eat bread and the cheapest cheese i could find for months. I don’t know how i did it to be honest, but somehow i managed.
One country we one wayed it. Next country, we sussed it out for 2 decades and still were surprised by how different life was tourist vs resident. I know a lot more than students in my language classes but that’s the only difference.
Oh man, I’ve been on the bread and cheese diet too. It’s amazing what you can do with that combo- throw some mustard on, toast it, don’t toast it, maybe some marinara or ketchup 😅
Ikr! I loved shoving it in the oven for a few minutes then add some mayo. Agh good old times haha
