You might not know how much you can do. If refugees can travel from Afghanistan all the way to France with their entire family, you can do it from the US. Dunno what you're doing, but crafts and trades jobs are also understaffed across Europe. Germany is even trying to be attractive to nurses all the way from India!

Don't underestimate yourself.

I wish I had gone a trade route, all my experience is in auto insurance, claims adjusting, damage estimates, appraisals. Makes me feel limited even over here. Hard to switch careers right now with the baby. I appreciate the words of encouragement though!
