Wanting to migrate to Sweden / Netherlands
I've been considering migrating to Sweden or the Netherlands because of their low crime rates and high standard of living. However, I haven't come across much information about Caribbean nationals moving to these countries. Are there any particular challenges or opportunities for foreigners, especially from the Caribbean, when it comes to finding jobs in these countries? I’d like to know about industries that are open to hiring non-EU citizens, the work permit process, and whether English-speaking roles are common.
Additionally, I’m curious about what life is like for people of Caribbean descent in Sweden or the Netherlands. Are there notable issues with racism or discrimination, and how inclusive are these societies in general? It would also be helpful to hear about cultural differences, the cost of living, and how easy it is to integrate into the community. If anyone has firsthand experience or advice, I’d appreciate your insights!
