"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).

kqdeu68Why do people always think this is a country of milk and honey?
You have to have two income to even get a flat - and with taxes there's not much left.
Plus its cold.

Turn up the heat, then.
Besides, of course Denmark is not a country of milk and honey.
Denmark is a nation of bacon and butter.

kqdtqgvWith the jobs they would get? Maybe in Central Cph. Rest of the country they could get a flat on one persons income alone without bigger issues, aside from maybe central Aarhus.
We have milk and honey, that's not an issue. For an Italian the problem will be the quality of those food items

kqduh61True. I guess somewhere in rural outskirt, they will have a chance. But they will still be cold, not easily integrated and sad about the food lol.

kqdvbdgYou can easily get flats in Aarhus on that salary for one person, so not rural areas. As for the other parts, yeah DK can be hard to make friends in, but there are fairly big international communities that are welcoming :) not much to do about the food though ... ;)
