UK: Youth Mobility Scheme for people under 30. This visa is for 2 years, and you can live / work in the UK. Quite easy to get, and does not require a degree / job offer.
Germany: Berlin Freelancer/Artist Visa. Do anything you want for 2 year, and does not need a regular job offer (involves a bit of paperwork).
- brailsafe 9y agoThanks :). Hadn't come across the Germany freelancer visa.
- IAmEveryone 9y agoI know more Canadian/Australians/South Africans in the Berlin Tech Scene than Germans, and they seem to mostly share your motivations and seem rather happy with their choice. The Freelancer visa rather easily lets you stay for two years. In that time, you can find a company to hire you and sponsor a more permanent visa. IIRC, you can apply for permanent residency after five years in the country. Berlin was dirt cheap for a long time, and still is compared to cities with similar size in similar countries. It's full of people trying all sorts of alternative approaches to life. As long as it's not criminal[0], you can do almost anything and probably find five to five thousand others than want to do it with you, two journalists than want to make a documentary about it, and one New York Times article declaring it the new trend.

- damla 9y agoDoes freelancer visa cover partner/children? If I get the freelancer visa can my partner work in Germany, or my children enroll to public schools?
