Hey guys, I currently am on the verge of finishing my masters in chemistry in Germany. I am originally from India and don’t want to go back. Although Germany is a seemingly great country to live, unfortunately, for me, it never suited me. I have never been so mentally depressed and unmotivated ever in my life (despite previously having a hard life). I think it’s the loneliness and how you’re just never accepted. I cannot think of living here long term. I have nothing against Germany so I would like to not have comments ‘defending’ my stance of living in Germany. I have made up my mind and I just cannot live such a life. I want to ask which country would be great for me. I have a background in chemistry so would be great to have a country that has opportunities for that. That’s the most important. Preferably an English speaking country. Safe for women. Good work life balance. Acceptance of expats(of course I’m not delusional but at least to an extent).
Nobody can suggest a country without knowing about your career and personal goals and aspirations. Even if you find a country suited to you from this thread, you need to first find a job (or university) to afford any kind of life there. Having a master’s degree doesn’t entitle you to a job in a country of your choice. If you think you are miserable now because of loneliness or lack of a social life, wait until you are jobless and lonely in another country. Also, no country is going to accept an expat just like that. My words may seem harsh, but that is the truth. It would be easier to find a job in Germany than anywhere else at the moment for you. Going back to India is another option, because I believe India is going through a huge growth phase with plenty of opportunities for almost everyone.
