took me one year to find a job in my business line
took me 1.5 year to understand the job market here and know I what like to do
took me 2 years to finally find the job I like to do...
things will come to you slowly but surely.. as long as you keep searching... meeting people... improving english... it will all happen.. just take time, keep in mind.. it is a country with population only twice as much as shanghai... so market size is small.. job opportunity is not as many as in China.. despite its other good quality such as good water.. fresh air. nice people.. freedom..etc..
don't be panic.. first year you will always experience some hardship like most of us do, second year you will definitly feel better.. 3rd, 4th year you will settle down if you still here.. and 5th year you will start to preach the same thing to other new immigrants.. and start to enjoy live here.. busy planning trips, your headache will be: which country should I go this year... to Cuba, dominica or europe? it will all come
