I’m curious about your stories. In my other thread about thinking of moving to Japan because of their population decline people suggested communist countries. I personally don’t consider it at the moment because, to my knowledge, they have a stable population growth so my housing issue wouldn’t be easier to resolve. Nevertheless, I’m eager to listen to your stories. :)

    Non STEM fields are generally less in demand. Though English(and to a lesser extent other languages) teachers who are native speakers can get visas relatively easily to some countries. The impression I’ve gotten living in different countries is that for non STEM and non language you’d need at least a master’s to be kind of in demand.

    That said if you have a non STEM degree but canactually do the work in a STEM field you can get a visa.

        Depends on your country of origin, without that knowledge we can’t really tell you much. Though overall Cuba is very stringent with their immigration if you are not an in demand worker or bringing in a large amount of capital.

        However I will say that Cuba is a relatively poorer country that is not as developed as places like China or the US due to the American embargo, bieng an island nation, and being a small nation. So the quality of living will be much less. Do not expect a Tokyo, Shanghai, or New York from Cuba, though the country is beautiful in its own right.

        From that, since Cuba is not extremely affluent, non-stem industries are much smaller and not as in demand, since domestic production can cover the countries needs.

        However, from that, if you are experienced in a STEM career, particularly in medicine or engineering, you will be readily accepted.

        This does not apply if you are traveling from the US. Travel and immigration is completely banned, and unless you plan to burn your passport and never return to the states, you’ll be SOL.
