I can’t decide which country to move to

Posted by PlutosLine@reddit | expats | View on Reddit | 2 comments

I’m a young adult looking for somewhere to move to in the near future. I currently live in the UK and want to move to: Canada (preferably Quebec area), France,Switzerland (the French part) or New Zealand. I was just wondering if anyone from these countries could share their experiences to help with my decision! I can speak french and english fluently, and am happy to learn any other languages if needed. My plan is to go to university in this country and hopefully stay there for a long time so it’s really important that I make the right choice. My goal is to work in marketing so it would be ideal if there were lots of career opportunities for me too. Thanks so much in advance!

If you are currently not an expat, and are looking for information about emigrating, you are required to ask specific questions about a specific destination or set of destinations. This means you should have already put some thought and research into where you might want—and be able—to go. You must provide context for your questions which may be relevant. No one is an expert in your eligibility to emigrate, so it’s expected that you will have already done some research to get an idea of what countries you might be able to get a visa for. r/iwantout may be a better sub for you to post in. Make sure you abide by their rules as well.

I'm Canadian and lived in a couple different Canadian cities (Toronto, Montreal, Halifax) and currently living in the UK. I would decide where you're moving to based on which school you want to attend/get accepted to. McGill (Montreal), Dalhousie (Halifax) and UofT/TMU (Toronto) are all really great schools, but given you want to get into marketing, I would encourage you to look at Western's Media, Information and Technoculture program. It's a really well respected program and of my friends who attended it, all of them are working for major companies (Coca-Cola, Warner Music, Maple Leaf Sports Entertainment). Otherwise, I think you'll find lots of cultural overlap between Canada and the UK but it'll be different enough to get that living abroad feeling. I don't know what else you'd want/need to know but feel free to ask away.
