"Hello, my girlfriend (both 30 years old) and I are thinking about moving to Denmark, as we've seen it mentioned everywhere as a country with many opportunities and a demand for professional skills. I'd like to mention that we are Italians, where over 40 years, salaries have dropped by almost 10%, and with the current lifestyle, it's not enough to live normally. We pay rent, groceries, bills, gasoline, and we almost run out of money. We would like to start a family sooner or later, something that isn't possible in Italy. So, for a guy (me) with 7 years of experience on lathes, grinding machines, and lapping machines, who has worked for Ferrari and Bosch, and holds a diploma as a Full Stack Web Developer, could there be a future? And what about my girlfriend, who has a 3-year bachelor’s degree in economy and finance and works as an accountant?
PS: I’m studying Dutch just because I love foreign languages. I can speak English and French too (B2).

kqcy30gWithin IT and accounting it should be possible to find work where English is accepted or even preferred. You can make a living on those wages for sure, though be aware that the way of living in Denmark is generally geared towards both parties working and that housing is expensive in Copenhagen, so it also depends on where you see yourselves situated and what your standards of living are. First of all I recommend spending a few weeks in Denmark in November or January to see if you can stomach the weather (it's cold, dark and wet FYI). Good luck and welcome.
