"But there are other reasons why people wants to go away from their origin country."
ResponderEliminarI'd have to have more than one reason why I'd uproot and move to another country. If my only reason was for a better salary, I wouldn't do it. If I have to sort out visas, work permits, international medical insurance and the rest of it, I'm going to want more than a higher salary. I'll want to be genuinely curious about the country, about the culture. I'd want to be able to experience the country, rather than just work there.
Not that there's anything wrong with relocated solely for work purposes, it just wouldn't be right for me.
