I don't know that I would recommend moving ANYWHERE without a little research - which, I guess, is what you beginning to do here?

A better course might be to come here - do an interview or two - test drive the job market a bit - and see if it meets your requirements.

Know that most jobs here pay less than W900,000 (40% or less of what I am guessing you are earning right now) and you won't get free housing, a plane ticket, an annual bonus, or a pension refund with that. Financially - it is a difficult transition.

Quality of life here though - is good. But it does depend a LOT on how much of your "quality of life" depends on money.
