How can a guy from Western Europe start a life in Russia/Ukraine?
I want to find a job in Russia or Ukraine. I have been fascinated about this part of the world since I was 10. It&#x27;s my dream to live and work there for at least a couple of years of my life.<p>I&#x27;m willing to go to great lengths to reach my goal. This is why I started learning Russian (currently at A2&#x2F;B1) and have devoted much of my traveling time (about 9 months in total) in Russia&#x2F;Ukraine. To succeed I think I need a job first. That&#x27;s why I quit my job (12 years in financial&#x2F;banking sector) and applied to 30+ relevant vacancies. This has resulted in only one second round interview.<p>Considering the investment&#x2F;return ratio it seems nearly impossible to find a job in Russia&#x2F;Ukraine.<p>What else can I do?
