@JonathanReezSupportsMonica First time I travelled to Europe, back in 2000 or 2001 I was thinking of trying to find IT work here so it's indeed interesting. I haven't seen my potential boss's project so far yet though. Thanks for the feedback!

@hippietrail I'd recommend trying to find a job in Czech Republic instead. Good wages, lots of work and relatively cheap :)

Based on personal experience

But visa would take at least three months

@MarkMayo I asked this because I wonder where to make flight reservation without needing to pay before getting a visa.

@Willeke I think Icelandic sounds like Finnish but the Finnish think it sounds like Swedish 😑

@JonathanReezSupportsMonica well i believe i'm not allowed to work in the EU or look for work here, but somebody offered to hire me straight out of the blue, and i can't expect that to happen again in Czechia (-: I have always liked the Czech people I've met and I like the language too

man other SE sites are feeling more hostile than ever

@CaptainBohemian all the conventional advice is - get the visa first. THen the flights.

other sites' users think that they can be "pro" by attacking you, or finding a mistake in your post, even if they can fix it.

they would prefer to judge you or catch your mistake but not guide you or help you.

@NeanDerThal: Yeah it seems so. I know at the company they're trying to make the sites friendlier but it seems not to be working.
