Most Americans think of Europe as the gold standard as far as countries to immigrate to. If you want to know how to move to Europe from America, I got you. First, you have to ditch the idea that you’ll be getting a job over here. That’s not happening. Second, you need to determine what type of income you earn and what dollar amount you can prove on paper. Third, schedule your exit plan consultation so you can figure out which countries will take you. Moving abroad is hard because it’s very precise. It’s not hard because any individual step is difficult. Hiring an expert can make your move across the pond much less stressful. #creatorsearchinsights

The number one mistake I see from people who are trying to move from America to Europe is that they think getting an international job offer is the way that they're going to do it. That is literally the slowest, most painful, unlikely path that you could take to move to Europe. And the reason for that is that every country has to look locally first. They have to look for candidates within their own country. And if they don't find any candidates within their own country, they broaden that search to the greater European Union. And if they don't find any candidates within that search, then they can open it up to globally. But in order to get your visa and get you actually moved there to do that job, they have to prove that you are the only person that can do this job, that nobody within the entire European Union can do this job. And I don't know about you, but I'm not that fabulous. There are other people who could do that job. And that's why they're never calling you for an interview and they're never bringing you in because there's people within the European Union that can already do that job. Along those same lines, people will think, well, okay, if I can't get the job before I'm over there, then I'll just get over there and then get the job. But a lot of the same problems still apply. If you're not a citizen of this country, then you don't necessarily have the legal right to work in the country just because you live here. It's a separate permission. So not all visas that you're going to get when you move to Europe actually allow you to work inside the country because they don't want jobs to be taken from their citizens. If you're new here, I'm Veronica, the minimalist international mom helping you change your life and move abroad. It's stop waiting for the unicorn perfect job that you and you alone can do on this entire planet and instead create one of the three kinds of income that allow you to move to Europe and live your life by bringing the income with you. Those three kinds of income are retirement income, passive income and remote income. You can arrive in Europe with your income locked in and just enjoy your life on this side of the ocean. My husband, my kids and I all move to Portugal on the D7 Retirement Visa, which allows for passive income in order to qualify. If you're ready to make your escape to Europe, click on the link in my bio and schedule your exit consultation where I can help you customize a unique exit plan for you and your family to come live abroad.

The life you've built in America isn't the life you wanted. It's the life you could scrape together under constraints of: wages that don't cover basics, healthcare tied to employment, housing costs consuming half your income, constant financial stress, survival mode as default state. You didn't choose misery. You chose best option available within impossible constraints. But those constraints are geographic. Change geography, change constraints, change what's possible. The apartment you can barely afford in America becomes the nice place with breathing room abroad. The paycheck that barely covers survival in America becomes the income that allows saving abroad. The constant stress about one emergency destroying you financially becomes manageable situation where emergencies are expensive but not catastrophic. Same income. Same skills. Same person. Different location. Completely different life. You're not stuck because you lack resources. You're stuck because resources you have don't work in location you're in. Move those resources to location where they work better, and you're not stuck anymore. But moving requires: tolerating uncertainty about how things will work out, being uncomfortable while figuring out new systems, releasing familiar patterns even when familiar is miserable, trusting you can build better life from scratch. Most people choose familiar misery over unfamiliar uncertainty. Devil you know feels safer than devil you don't, even when devil you know is grinding you down. This is why people stay in: jobs they hate, relationships that don't work, locations that don't serve them, lives that feel like slow suffocation. Because at least they know how to survive current misery. Unknown is terrifying even when unknown might be better. But what if you're not choosing between misery and uncertainty? What if you're choosing between: familiar misery that will continue indefinitely, or temporary uncertainty that leads to actually building life you want? When you're in survival mode, you're making choices based on: what's cheapest, what's fastest, what gets you through next month, what keeps crisis at bay. Not what you actually want. What you can manage given constraints. Those choices compound into life that doesn't reflect your preferences. Reflects what you could piece together while drowning. But when you move somewhere your income works better, you're not in survival mode anymore. You have breathing room to choose based on: what you actually want, what serves your family, what creates life you're proud of. That's not small difference. That's the difference between life you're enduring and life you're choosing. Living in America isn't default you're stuck with. It's choice you're making every day by not choosing differently. And choosing differently is available to you. Link in bio for people ready to choose. What would you choose if survival wasn't consuming all your energy? 🆘🇺🇸
