Holland is quite easy to get into for skilled people. I don't know your field but if you're in IT, finance or anything healthcare you should be fine. Your salary will take a hit though, it's not the salaries you're used to from the U.S

That said, life might be way less stressful for you. It's just a different world, quite impossible to determine how you would like it before you try it. Weather is a bitch though, think Seattle or something like that. Work life balance is amazing here and throughout most Europe.

I am okay with cold/wet weather, not a problem for me.

I've worked with Europeans before (French mostly) and am familiar with the work life balance :) Kinda jealous of it :P

okay, I'll explore, thank you. I am not too particular about my salary, as long as I can sustain myself, I am happy. I live a very simple life

Europe or Canada sound like a good option for you my friend, good luck! I'm not sure about Australia never done any research over it since it's too far for me
